The most interesting part is being able to recognise and understand every code you see. Even if it's bash scripting. Probably any weird looking command.


Someone recently told me he didn't know all the so-called web hosting and bare metal gibberish are people's computers. he told me, RDP are for white folks only. (Well, I no too argue with am because of electricity)

airsaylongcome:
At all! The roles I’m talking about are IC roles. Nine of all those drama. I learned long ago to steer clear of FTE roles because I understand the tax implications that come with hiring FTE

Hmmmm..... another angle.

airsaylongcome:
Software engineers are the kings of tech. Saw a role $100/hr for a C++ coder. That's $16k monthly. Mostly untaxed if you live in Naija. The problem is that a lot of people think that remote tech folks sit down and do nothing to earn "big" money. They work like donkeys and most barely have a social life

After applying that when you will hear your country has a different tax template.
Mtchew...

They are not stupid. That role is majorly for folks within their country code.

tensazangetsu20:
What do I wanna use it for. I don't go anywhere.

This is one of th3 most reasonable response here.

SavageBoy:
Can I apply?

But I have 2 work conditions:

1. I'll only provide HTML skills, I don't know how you'll sort the other web Dev skills, it's none of my business

2. I'll work only 2hrs twice a week.

Goodness me!!!


See Pride.

tensazangetsu20:
It's per month. I remember when I was a job hunting as a newbie 2 years back, someone opened his mouth to offer me 20k a month. The guy was lucky the interview was on zoom. If it was real life the dude for collect.

Wotoporously mehn!

Lol... it's the confidence they use in mentioning the amount sef... like say them dey do you favour.

This one say 10k per month.

@GREATIGBOMAN Over to you nwanne.

For every 10 standard website you see today, 4 of them are react!
So choose wisely.

If na lie, use your react dev tool t0 check on some of your fav websites. It's no longer a hype.

Lekki residents and road users eku orire traffic and holdups, that Apapa will be child's play

Na wetin I wan just talk now be that ooo! ~APAPA V4.0~

I no suppose answer you... but you na my guy.

As long as it's a lightweight linux distro, you should be fine.

tensazangetsu20:
We dey solve o. The thing dey carry man go where man no know o

Lol... no be small!

But like tensa would always shout out... leetcode premium is just the way forward.
I recently applied for a role with Andela... well, na for DSA them cut my coat give me...

They asked to re-apply in 3months and advised I solved more problems on hackerrank. Hence, na the road I dey now.

So to say, leetcode and hackerrank na the real koko for any job interview.

@Tensazangetsu20 how far? E don tey ooo!

Deicide:
You must be very creative. I always find it hard to come up with design. I prefer to translate the Figma into web pages by code.

Baba, na as the spirit leads ooo! But I don't think there's any design I can't implement using either Nextjs, Sveltekit, or Remix.run

It used to be all LAMP stack... codeigniter... then laravel (I still love it).

Recently enjoying the company of Ruby on rails... but where work plenty for the world na for React.

The idea is just to keep yourself afloat so you no go jogor when tech advancement switch gear!

Deicide:
How do you come up with design?

I've actually never ever ever used anyone's design in any of my projects before. I come up with designs myself. I figma it all layer by layer.

rottable:
I will copy your code to my IDE and freestyle with.

I am not familiar with anything in your code. So strange

Baba, it will do absolutely nothing for you but throw errors you might not even understand.
And the code is not strange. It's just html, css and js... in short hand

Ah... I remember the days of compulsory shorthand in school that year... all those things wetin person use am do finally? This country sef!

It's actually a React Native Mobile App with NativeBase UI Framework. Everything just be like Chakra! This is actually my very first ground up attempt at RN.

Well, na play play something wey I come dey get feelings for

I will share the app here for extensive testing when it's done.

For the backend, I'd eventually build a graphql server with nestjs.


Small small sha!


Below is a simple splash screen for the app.

This is a side project I will only be working on when I'm free.

RepoMan007:
?

??

The result won't be abysmal as you'd think.

Here's the result.

I don't expect beginners to understand this snippet. But it does alot here.

Credit facilities? Really?

Another loan sharks in disguise.
This is Nigeria.
Credit facilities that weren't put in place when we had refineries and other export products to sustain us.

Na 2023 we wan start Credit facility. Una try well well. No politician is a Saint. I just hope to see a better Nigeria.
Let the best man win.

Who shuts down a PC? Only restart when necessitated.
If you like shut down 1million times, system wey wan spoil go spoil.

GREATIGBOMAN:
Trash.

Oh comrade!

He even put am ad! FR!

TastyFriedPussy:
It seems On every social media platform you hop on now, everybody is talking about tech and coding, how it's a quick way to financial freedom, earning in dollars, work from home and all that soft life. You'll begin to see comments of people yelling teach me, teach me, show me the way, I'm really interested in this programming thing (LOL ) and all these comments from desperate people whom I'm sure don't even have the passion for the field, just hoping it gives them big bucks, thinking because you don't need a degree to be a programmer it'll be a breeze... And most of you devs are not even making matters any better, you keep on making this field look cheap and very soon, programming is going to get casted and over saturated... The case of 10k web developers is still much abound and very, very, soon, it's gonna get even worse, half baked programmers go soon full everywhere, potentially causing difficulties for programmers who took lots and lots of time to perfect their skill
It's becoming discouraging for people like me who are just freshers into the field, and don't get me wrong, I'm a computer science student and programming is not something I developed love for just because of what I read online, non of that stuff. The love for programming has been there

You don tire now now?.

Omo, I've had to use joomla as a prerequisite from clients.

I know your moniker

Very stubborn human...
overall sha, ure spot on. Good one.

airsaylongcome:
Tensa, these youngings don't understand. See someone saying Nigerian Universities don't teach you how to program. Or teach you the latest frameworks. They should try a foreign Uni and see if they will be taught Laravel or any of the other fancy frameworks.

I'm a product of a Nigerian University. And proud of that

I went to Wisconsin University College Accra Ghana. (No ask me about the name)

Well, I guess that's where the journey started... for someone who taught it was going to be mechanical engineering.

Op... I use God beg you. Go school. Go school oooo! Abeg!!!

Parachoko:
Why did Ike feel Mercy is referring to him?

Very good question. You practically took the words outta my head.

dodgelord:
rest keep ur sabiness to urself.

Smiles... that's something you're struggling with bro!

@dodgelord
If you don't take criticism, how are you looking to improve in places you have weaknesses.

Check this https://www.autosandcartalk.com/

That's a car forum I worked on in 2019... used xenforo.

Sometimes, it's not a bad idea to ask for help.
The airsaylongcome you were just throwing words at could do alot more than you think. But u just dey throw am jabs for no reason.

Ikechukwu183:
Years before now, FORTRAN used to be one of the beginner's programming languages but it is a difficult language. It is still taught as part of undergraduate course in computer science in some universities but that doesn't mean that it's the best approach to learning programming. Some other universities teach BASIC, Visual BASIC or QBASIC as their beginner-courses in their curricula.

Started with BASIC, QBASIC.
The only thing I remember is just the names I wrote up there. And pseudocode

Na there i first know wetin be pseudocode.

Oh no no no.

qtguru:
Anti-spambot doesn't help matters, I've gotten banned for posting links.

I think say na only me sha... its annoying.

Think4Myself:
Ok, thanks, but what if I want something custom, I know bootstrap and it's repetitive, not sure bout tailwind thi

Op... I don't think there any form of custom anything apart from a way somebody thinks is nicer than the other.

However we choose to write css, we must know css! I don't know if you understand what I mean.

I've used Tailwind, Chakra UI, MUI, daisyUI, Css module, Styled Component, SCSS, SASS... make I no dey mention utilities like say na better thing.

The point is, you need to know your css well.
So I'll suggest writing in the style you're comfortable with. At the end of it all, ensure your work is beautiful and catchy. That's the work of CSS ba? .

Think4Myself:
They were rude to me at first please

I saw that... but na you be the OP.
If you respond to every criticism you might not learn much or get valuable information as to what you posted. Albeit, just take am easy. Peace!
