Center is not an html5 tag.

1. Create a parent container to hold a) niaraland div b)form div

2. Set the parent container to display: flex AND direction to be flex column AND justify content by center AND align items by center

3. Optional steps: The form div that contains username and password input, can be set to also display flex, or you could just stack each one on top of the other and seperate them using margin-top.

I suggest you go the flex route, because it will make your page responsive at all breakpoints i.e. they will shrink and grow along with the view port

Using a utility-first framework like tailwindcss, you would to this

<div className="flex flex-col justify-center items-center w-5/10 mx-auto"
<div className="flex flex-col justify-center items-center">
<input name="username" type="text" id="username" placeholder="username" className="h-10 rounded-lg"/>
<input name="password" type="password" id="password" placeholder="password" className="h-10 rounded-lg mt-6"/>

//......more divs as u deem fit here
</div>
</div>

boss you are too good..

instead of the webhook am using "fs.watch" which eliminates the cron job tasks..and just re-require the json file .

crunchyDope:
ok boss

i was thinking about the whole running process of this node js,and d updating the code thingy.

so am thinking abt having a core(app) running that checks the config file every 15 minutes.

when it checks the config file? it could see a new file to run...lets say there is a "{
new: " new new new"
}".

it would take that new and load it, and call the init() on it..

now after another 15 minutes it would check that file and voila! that new still has the same file instead of {new:""}..

so how do i change the new in the config file,

am using the config library

Babtunz:
Thanks for you swift response
Yeah, I got your mail, but currently I do not have access to Whatsapp, I use Gmail and Twitter these days. Will it be okay if I send my Twitter handle or you would like to continue with the e-mail?

Please let me know, thanks.

crunchyDope:
boss biko , how do yo change a value in a config file{dev or prod}?
(programmatically)

Babtunz:
Hi @cixak95211, I really learnt a bunch of stuff from your comment and I'd be happy if you'll share you social handles so I can connect with, please...

I'm a starter with Node.js but I'm confident with my JS scripts and I can catch up so fast! I'm willing to tap from your wealth of knowledge and experience please, if you don't mind. Please revert

codeigniter:
that great, at least you have job security. what would u advice a newbie to do? hunt for jobs, freelance or build their own products. u seem more experienced

codeigniter:
It's great that u think at scale, and I understand what u are driving at. But what i saying is about saving most. Do u work for company or freelance

codeigniter:
ok I get It, I haven't really built any node applications using jwt. u were right when u said there is no need to make the application stateful when using jwt, what I was saying was instead using in memory db, which means u might be using another db e.g mongodb. I would rather create a session, to save cost, but if I don't a db then I can use redis or others. well I don't think I will go back to nodejs, except maybe on jobs, but I won't use for my personal projects

codeigniter:
that would work but it going to add more to d bill. the problem with node js jwt is that it doesn't create a table with the application/backend which makes it difficult to invalidate the token. anyways, I would prefer to use a table in my db.

codeigniter:
yes, coming from drf makes it easier because u will have understood the concepts which is the most important thing, but drf takes care of all the manual work, e.g I use permission based class and add an auth library at the settings which will depend on drf token table, drf is very easy if u are using class based view. jwt is easier than password but when I was doing MERN, i read that the token doesn't expire and if another person access ur device they can easily copy the token. I built a personalized API auth for flask I use decorators to make sure it can be used by anyone. i might release to make developer more lazy! lol. why did u switch to node.js, I would like to know I am very u will miss Django orm, except if u use mongoose

DanTheGeek:
@cixak95211 you too join the group o. You are the last one we are waiting for.

DanTheGeek:
Great. Nice meeting another JavaScript ninja in the house. I do JavaScript too but MERN also some PHP, Python and Golang.

DanTheGeek:
You've said it all. I laughed when I read the second question though. Production servers very rarely reboot (except when using a PaaS provider) except server providers like Heroku but even Heroku has a json file it runs like a daemon everytime the app restarts. So that problem is solved. On a production server on a service like AWS you probably have automation sorted out as part of the software infrastructure. Thanks for this insightful answer.

May I know your stack?

crunchyDope:
you guys are still using the word rarely which means not "impossible".. so this is how i sleep knowing my crawlers might one day fail

Please Goan learn what API Means
Application programming interface. If I write an app and I want other app to communicate to my app. I write an api, set of functions. Api are between apps not languages

Xperienx:
This answer in beyond the scope of the OP. He's absolute and saying all these could even confuse him the more.
