Arrayman:
of course to use any css framework.effectively you need toknow vanilla css but during actual production it is more productive to use a framework.

Not true. Remember I said most firm/projects don't want you to use any framework. yea, that's to avoid vendor lock-in. (a situation where you are locked to a particular vendor and unable to switch easily)

If you had vanilla Reactjs project, its very easy to port to Nextjs or Gatsby and vice-versa. Code is mostly 99.999% the same,
just have to reorder folder structure and add required configs. Heck, it can be done automatically with code-mods (terminal commands)

But a material-ui project or boostrap project will be much harder to port to tailwind or vanilla and vice versa
You will have to rewrite the whole css from scratch manually .e.g for every mx-auto you have to do margin: 0 auto
and for every Typography.P you will have to do p {...}. It's hell.

I have been unfortunate enough to do many infrastructure "porting" (excuse my lingo) and it's not what i would wish on my enemy.

Arrayman:
who needs to go through all these when there are css frameworks that can conviently handle your layout.

some firms/projects will restrict the use of any css framework whatsoever. A requirement would be vanilla css ONLY.
CSS interviews are also done in vanilla mode. Knowing any particular framework is just an "added" but unrealistic advantage

The Solar na scam o. My laptop has a GPU so it draws a ton of power. On continuous usage I get 6 hours of use before it dies and I have to use generator. I got it for 250k sha

And how is it a scam. You get what you pay for. You paid 250k,
Have you seen the sterling bank headquarters that was practically covered with solar panels, you bet it aint 250k, yes?
would it also perform like yours? my setup runs round the clock on full load (family of 6)
mentioning the price is inconsequential but you get the idea

lol newbie syndrome.
while they can "almost" do the same thing, using flexbox produces more verbose code than grid
the sweet spot is knowing when to use each or most of the times both to accomplish something

What kinds of latency are you getting for these calls? I’m having to deal with calls from a San Diego VOIP server and seeing 260ms+ latency

Luckily both proxy and me were both on wired solutions; so around 14ms on bad days.
Don't think i ever for once saw anything close to 30. never!

Verification has been done through zoom video call and US ID was requested for. So the identity has been established. Will you advise I continue using my dedicated US VPN ip?

Yes, brov. You will basically get flagged for switching IPs randomly and that will raise questions that needs to be answered.
Today you're in Tallahassee and tomorrow Miami, how possible is that? Unless you traveling and do you travel everyday?
Next tomorrow, Brooklyn and then in the evening, Queens.
Even PayPal might block you if you switch ips randomly (even within the same state). keep to your dedicated ip, and make sure it don't change at not anytime soon.

airsaylongcome:
Again I ask, would the use of an AWS IP not send bells ringing? In my experience, using IPs from a data Centre is a dead giveaway that you are most likely using a VPN.

been in this situation, no no they don't give a f**k if you're using aws, gcp, vpn with a usa ip; as long as they are able to establish your identity at the onset as being physically present in the states; unless the employer is too pesky and micromanaging
many people physically present in the usa still use cloud vpns
in my situation i even had to receive calls via call-forwarding, employer -> proxy -> me
and trust me it was a whole lot of lengthy calls.

Or just rent a pc from AWS; no vpns required.
MacOs go for between 17 - 25 usd per day. That's a minimum of $340 for 20 working days
or as low as $200 p/m if you're renting long-term
and have peace of mind

telim:
The vpn might have block your employers from connecting to your pc. To avoid stuff like these Setup your own vpn by using ipv4 assigned to low end linux servers from digital ocean, vultr etc using open vpn.

It cost 5 to 7 usd for running the server every month.
If you are low on cash look for any Nigerian card and load minimum of 1usd then use the card to create a free trial aws ec2 acc and setup a vpn with any of the free trial ec2 liniux server using open vpn. Free trial aws acc last for 1 year. After a year use a new card with different email to get a new acc and repeat same process.

Say no more!

on the same project or separate project?

the cache is both local & global (localFirst then Global strategy), so will work on different projects

I wouldn't combine FE and BE with any all-in-one package though, that was the reason I moved away from PHP which I started my Backend journey with. I love the Idea of API sitting separately on its own, I may want to build mobile apps that will consume the API endpoints later in future, it will be nice if by then I only need to focus on the front end aspect. I will start using Nestjs plus GraphQL for my BE moving on, and may be Nextjs for the FE.

The thing is, deploying many tools on servers shouldn't be an issue for large organizations, I worked with a Fintech company in my previous job and our main clients are banks. They own servers and they give us enough servers to work with, separate server for application, another for database, ETL gets its own, reporting and Power Bi also get their standalone server and there are ways we make them speak together. Coming from that background, I know the benefit of using separate server for deploying different tools and its downside. When I started the project, I was considering buying a VM from any of those websites that give cloud computing services and host many of those tools there. On consideration of price and my target clients, I knew it will be too expensive to go that route, if not, there are great Reporting and Charting tools that those big banks use which I can effortlessly deploy on my own VM.

On leaner bundle that you stressed, I know react with so many dependencies one has to install will not be sustainable, I know the size of the project will get unreasonable larger as the project get more functionalities, I am moving away from it soon. I don't know much about ASTRO you mentioned but I will surely do research on it.

And, if you don't mind, I don't mind having your contact, I am seeing you as someone I just need, if not as a mentor, as someone I can have around because you seem to be steps ahead of me. Thanks in advance.

Good catch i like how you think outside the box, but PHP damn!. Well using Nextjs as a case study, uhmm, it doesn't work the way php works. In summary, as you may already know, it allows you write api functions and then bundles them outside your frontend app. So it's more like you still doing dedicated fe + api except that it abstracts the api side for you and also allows you to manage both inside one codebase. And yes, you can still consume the api endpoints later in the future because it does provide endpoints like your regular nodejs and you can do your regular GET, POST, PATCH etc. Heck you can even rate-limit or secure with an API key should you choose to sell the api on a per-user or per-bandwidth basis. You options are unlimited. The most important takeaway being you can manage all these codes in one place (good for future/legacy development) and then you don't have to worry too much about servers and the hassles that come with it e.g. security and best practices. Astro is very nice especially with their architecture called "Islands". you should definitely look into it. It removes a lot of bottlenecks that would occasionally spring up using traditional react or even Nextjs.

Steps ahead of you? I'm flattered but not really. Just that i've worked with too many teams and seen too many use-cases where "unanticipated" issues often neglected would then pop up and throw a wrench. I use prontonmail as my handle.

No pnpm is download once and then you can do something like pnpm add <PKG> --ofline

yarn does the same thing by caching packages, install once and install again offline as long as cache hasn't been cleared.
OP, i am sure you realize there are many ways to achieve something. and you didnt state if you're on a Linux, Macos or Windows machine

Can u listen to yourself?


So vasectomy will prevent u from getting STDs because u think they're 100% safe?


Why use cheap condoms?



I'm Sha very sure u didn't do any vasectomy...

U simply do not know what you're talking about.


U just like forming woke when ur not.


Do quick and japa... Ur talks the really tire person

lol which one is vasectomy again? why would someone do vasectomy and still use prophylactics? the vasectomy is to give you peace of mind knowing you're shooting blanks, in other words, a form of family planning for married persons or for those who like going in and don't want the responsibility that comes with it. Going in protected defeats the whole purpose as that could have been done instead of the surgical procedure. By the way undoing a vasectomy doesn't guarantee 100% success of conception and the longer you take to reverse it, the lower the chances of conception. All in all, he didn't do shit!

The problem with his approach and choice of technologies is that, the legacy project will be a pain in the ass for any engineer that will later work with the project. He could have used Nextjs which was built on top of React Lib for building production application, and Nestjs which is the best JavaScript backend framework

Damn right! The last thing you want to think of when building Stage0 apps are managing servers (that keep running 24/7 even with zero traffic) (unless once again you absolutely cannot help it). 99.99% of the time you won't need them especially in this era of computing.
If he so loved pure React, which "nobody in quotes" uses again by the way, then he could use it paired with some form of serverless api technology. This way he would build faster with lesser headaches to worry about and most importantly, run the app cheaper.
I support Nextjs being the de facto tool for any production app right now. Remix is better but uhmm, story for another day.

donproject2:
Yes...node for apis, react for frontend. By full-fledged react, did you mean using framework like Nextjs?

Reporting like creating tabulated results for the users and dashboard like the one Power BI can build. I have other tools I can use for the two but they are overkill, besides, these are tools that have their own server and needed to be installed either on a VM and link with the website or I pay for a service that will help me host them.

Yes something like Nextjs would have given you an all-in-one package (fe + api). So i wonder why you had to make a standalone api (server). Unless of course you plan on making the api available publicly or would want to sell it later as a paid integration. else, it's an overkill. You also have to think of portability and scalability. if you are deploying several tools on servers minus your application, then how fast can you move these to a new server, if the client would want to switch servers? then the financial aspect, why should you incur extra cost just to host some kind of tool that your app needs. There are special cases for these, so you have to decide is it worth it? If it isn't, then an all-in-one solution would be the better and faster option. Once again reduce your need for overbloated node_modules, unless absolutely required without another way out, client project or not. The world is moving towards leaner bundles (that's why we now have stuffs like Astro) and if you can help it, do it. it pays in the long run.

Your budget will determine what you need.

Product Manager - Responsible for the design of the product (The Software You Need) and the user journey.
Project Manager - Responsible for the product delivery and communicating timelines from the engineers - this must be achievable and measurable.
QA Tester - Responsible for the testing of the product and ensuring that the product is bug-free.
UI / UX Designer - Responsible for the user interface and user experience design.
Senior Software Engineers (Front-end & Back-end) - Responsible for the actualisation of the product using various technologies.

If he is starting up low-key (very lean budget); then he doesn't need all that.
And he needs SSEs that have worked in that space before. If it's their firs time, they will use his project `as target practice` if you know what i mean.

I am actually a banker so that aspect is covered. I really do not have an interest in knowing the difference. I just want guidance on who I should be speaking with.

Then pray tell how you would know you're speaking with the right person and not a faux if you cannot tell the difference?

Few takeaways for you:

1. I want to assume Nodejs for the backend (api) and React for the frontend? yes? if so why? which will lead to further questions.
2. React is just a library. Are you using pure react or a full-fledged React-framework?
3. which brings me to: 95% of the time you don't need external modules to achieve something. while they make the work easier (a bit), they tend to increase the bundle size by a bigger margin, leading to heavy and slower apps.

if you had attached an image of how you wanted the reporting and activity dashboard to look like, then i would have told you how best to approach it module-lessly. I have actually presented graphs and realtime- charts using zero modules (native js data structure + html elements would suffice). Take that to the bank!

first educate yourself on the difference between a software developer and a programmer and therein lies your answer.
whatever you come up with, all i know is that you'll need someone with some banking experience, active or passive

Find a shared server and dump it inside public_html folder, simples!
if you have a custom server, you can dump it anywhere as long as that path is publicly accessible on port 80 and 443

it works the same as every other online compiler or anything at all where you can input code and get an output.
if you look at the network tab during typing, you would notice that a request is being sent to a server where the magic happens and the result is sent back to the client (you)

Since you had dollars in your dorm account, you coulda visited the bank and asked for a swift payment form i.e.. Input bank details of seller and they would get money in 2 working days thereabouts.
you can mostly do this via the online banking website or app without having to visit the bank in the first place, even if your bank doesnt allow outbound international fts via their app. you could call the bank or email them and ask for an indemnity form + the payment form
fill the forms and send back to them, and they will execute your payment. or download the form frm your bank's website and send with your registered email address. Many ways bro bro, all tested and trusted.

Bro, if you don't have solutions to his problems just move on and stop condemning him. I have been unable to my transfer on my USD card for 3wks now I'm even planning on visiting UBA to know why.

I dont get what you mean by "transfer on USD card". why not initiate a SWIFT payment?

Fidelity Bank has stopped paying USD for like 5 months now.

Not true, maybe just your branch. Withdrawal still happened 2 weeks ago

HardMirror:
baba are u using wema bank? Abi u want me to send u screenshot? Wema dollar card had been down for over 2 weeks now. I have to go to the bank for transactions and right now they are saying they cannot do it. And no withdrawal over the counter. Abeg dont tell me about a problem i am passing through.
I just want to know if other banks have this problem i dont need you to tell me what my own bank is doing.

do u think i would have commented if i wasnt using wema bank?

HardMirror:
...but i was told they have stopped giving dollars. I wanted to make transfer and they said that was also impossible.

This is half baked truth. No bank will deny a transfer for the reasons you stated, after all it's electronic money.
What if you had opened your online banking app and done the transfer? Will the bank stop and reverse it?
You probably did not listen well or you're just spewing false claims. People still withdraw money over the counter
