It's really over

how to develop a website for killing myself.

anyone got any decent cms they use with sqlite/node/express? i dont want to have to run django with everything else because i dont like big boy databases.

Funny because doing webdev makes me want to kill everyone else.

>>106279959 (OP)
We're so back

>>106280123
Use jQuery, that will make you want to kill yourself

Why not?

>>106281079
Web dev is good

>>106282470
>Web dev is good
It's good job security because everything about it is shit that only ever gets worse.

>>106282479
I disagree with you.

>>106282610
In the early days of the web, in the 90s, the web was ugly but it worked. Now it's even uglier and much of it doesn't even work.

>>106283137
The 90s web was shit. No native video. No flexbox. No WebSockets. No media queries. No WebGL. No fetch API. Etc.

I like the fact that browsers now are way more capable and powerful.

Perfection.

Today I'm gonna work on a v2 of my spergy japanese news article typing test thing.

struggling figuring out the data viz for this so if you happen to have any recs or it makes you think of something that could inspire me lmk

jQuery was the peak of the golden years of webdev

website?

zustand feels really nice compared to redux

Just what I've thrown together this evening but here you go

what does it take to actually run a website?

>>106286821
A server

>>106286938
What about mods, admins, hackers, etc? Seems sketch

Recently added accounts to my site, just trying to figure how to reset forgotten passwords. I would prefer not to handle email addresses (one less privacy issue to put up with, plus I've never had to set up email sending before). Any suggestions for good password reset options? I considered using TOTP for it, but I'll probably add 2FA to logins at some point and I don't want it used for both. Otherwise maybe recovery codes?

>>106287323
I usually see that done with preset recovery codes yeah. Of course I guarantee you'll get people too dumb to write them down safely.

>>106286558
Luv zustand me

>>106283684
>>106285023
Perhaps you have nostalgia for more primitive times, but I like the advanced features of today's web browsers

>>106286971
You write code to handle those things

Haven't done any web dev the past few days because I've been busy with other shit. I'm getting web dev withdrawals.

>>106286558
jotai is pretty good too

>>106286558
Me? I use useState and useContext like the pleb that I am

I know it's a Sunday but come on lads, we should keep the web dev thread alive.

Web dev shall not die, it shall live

I can't see where to enter the next DigitalOcean promo code. It's just not on the page anymore, and my signup credits expire tomorrow.

Am I missing something, or is that all there is?

It seems like people were using codes after their initial offer, or is that all made up?

Learn JS and it should be straightforward

questionable font choice, but cool concept. I will use it with a tampermonkey script making it sans serif helvetica

Sorry this general is for heterosexuals

I'm thinking about creating a SaaS app that helps companies turn their services into MCP servers. Looking around it seems like FastMCP is the best option currently although I'm not a fan of Python.

Anyone else looking into something similar?

>>106283647
It was just meant to be hyperlinked documents back then, it was just fine for that usecase until people decided it should be the platform for much more than that. Maybe it was a mistake to turn it into that, maybe all the online shopping, video streaming, social media and forums should have just been done through native applications. Why couldn't we just have made native applications with their own protocols for these things? Just make standard protocols for the different usecases so we can use our own client implementation for many different services of that type

>>106294831
Of course I know corpofags would never accept this in practice, letting us use our own clients by using a standard protocol instead of their propietary garbage? Nah they'd rather reinvent the wheel for their service so that it's harder for us to not use their propietary clients full of malware

I think it's a nice way to do some drills on readings, it helps me remember since I have to actually type it.
I've published a couple updates I did today

>>106294896
>>106286345
Nice to see people being mindful of the 14kB rule. It's 14kB transferred btw, so 3.55kB is well below it.

>>106294927
I was surprised how easy it is if you don't have a whole stack of vercel gigabloat under you
Anyway back to my bloatmaxx real job

>>106294927
I'm surprised that people even need to consciously do this, how does someone mess up bad enough for the html and css for a page to be more than 14kb when gzipped? Even the people using bloated js frameworks can easily avoid this nowadays

>>106295053
Yeah, it's not that hard. Just put all the critical CSS inside of
