31?what was God doing? grin
Smiling as usual?so sad.. cry
Can we now accept the fact that he doesn't exist cos if he exist he would have found a way to save those persons.. undecided undecided

No sensible father will watch his kids stamped to death.. cry
They are gonna insult me for sure but will never think about my statement..if God was truly alive why didn't he save those people...?

Modified: Christian extremist are really insecured..look how they keep insulting their God without bringing logical proof and statement.. grin
My statement remains the same..GOD IS MAN-MADE AND HE DOESN'T EXIST..HE WAS CREATED BY HUMAN TO DECEIVE GULLIBLE PERSONS..THE EARLIER YOU UNDERSTAND THE BETTER..STOP WAITING ON A FOLKTALE BOOK TO CONTROL YA LIFE.. grin

If it was another religion, you would be dead by now.

Programming / Imagine Chatting Via Command Line by ColeDrain(m): 5:29pm On Jul 07, 2021
So I saw this cool repository on GitHub Devzat: [url]github.com/quackduck/devzat[/url]

Devzat basically allows developers chat via their command line shocked

It's very simple to use, just open your command prompt and type in ssh devzat.hackclub.com, make sure you're connected to the internet, of course.

Some Interesting features of Devzat:
β€’ Rooms! Run cd to see all rooms and use cd #foo to join a new room.
β€’ Markdown support! Tables, headers, italics and everything. Just use \n in place of newlines.
β€’ Code syntax highlighting. Use Markdown fences to send code. Run eg-code to see an example.
β€’ Direct messages! Send a quick DM using =user <msg> or stay in DMs by running cd @user.
β€’ Timezone support, use tz Continent/City to set your timezone.
β€’ Built in Tic Tac Toe and Hangman! Run tic or hang <word> to start new games.
β€’ Emoji replacements! :rocket: => (like on Slack and Discord)

All these just with your command line..
Guys this is cool, come try it.

Sososo:
is python that easy
python/mobile app

which one is more lucrative?

which one takes longer time to learn?

tech gurus in the house please

Don't quite get your second question.. But

Python's syntax is very easy to learn, it's very close to English language.

Python is mostly used for Backend development, Data Science, Machine learning and AI.

Python can also handle Mobile Apps, but it's very tedious there, for mobile apps Java or Kotlin.

Mobile Application Development is just a field, and a very lucrative field.

Webmasters / Learn Web Development In 2021 And Get Hired by ColeDrain(m): 2:32pm On Jan 01, 2021
Learn how to design and create websites resources in 2021,get a job, freelance and have fun, all with your PC.

Requirements: Determination and your lappy, Also read How the Web Works

A website is made up of two major parts: frontend and backend.

Frontend: is basically what you can see and interact with on a website.

Backend: this is basically background work that you can't see, this is where the logic and data management takes place.

Take your phone for example, the screen is what you use to interact with the phone, but behind that screen is a mechanism that makes it works, yeah, something like that.



FRONTEND
For frontend there are some major things you need to learn.

A. HTML (HYPERTEXT MARKUP LANGUAGE)
We use HTML to design the structure or blueprint of a website, it's just like laying bricks to build a house.
Look at Nairaland for example:

It has a:
- head(title, meta, links)
- body(nav bar, links, titles, paragraph, pictures, videos, footer)

All these come together to make Nairaland.

B. CSS (CASCADING STYLE SHEET)
So I have got a blueprint/structure but that's not enough. To make a website attractive and responsive you need CSS.

Example of CSS on Nairaland is the background colour of the website.

LEARN HTML AND CSS RESOURCES:
A.HTML intro
B. Build your first web page

C. JAVASCRIPT(JS)
JS is a programming language, with this you can make a website interactive and dynamic.

Example of JS on Nairaland is the like, quote buttons.

D. FRONTEND FRAMEWORKS
Frameworks contain pre-written code. For example I wanna create a button, I have to start writing code to do that, frameworks give you a button directly.

Frameworks make coding a bit easier or not. I strictly advise learning HTML, CSS and JS first before moving to frameworks.

Major frontend frameworks:
Bootstrap
Tailwind.CSS

react.js tutorial
vue.js tutorial



BACKEND

A. Programming Language
So like I said earlier, this is where the main website logic takes place, tou will need to learn a programming language like: Python, Javascript, PHP, Java etc.

B. SQL (Structured Query Language)
SQL helps us to store, retrieve and manage data from the database. How does nairaland retrieve posts that were made today from the database? SQL.

Learn SQL: SQL
Practise SQL

C. DBMS (DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM)


D. BACKEND FRAMEWORKS
Also like frontend frameworks they save time and increase efficiency of developers.
e.g
Django Tutorial
Laravel Tutorial
Express js -
Spring -

IMPORTANT MENTIONS:

A. Learn how to use GitHub
Github is a versioning system for managing your web projects, you can upload your projects to GitHub and even share it with others. Many companies/organisations use GitHub. So you need to learn how to use it.

B. Build projects, no matter how small they seem

C. Don't just copy tutorials, understand the logic and try to add yours, very important.

D. Have a portfolio(a site where you show projects you have done). You could even use it to apply for jobs.
