you didn't specify the language

Flutter is a mobile dev framework built on Dart. Dart is a programming language similar to Java but more easier to learn. So flutter is just an sdk for building hybrid mobile apps just like React-native.

More to what neuroboy has said, before you can make both mobile and web app for a single application, then you have to build a restful API, where you need a backend technology such as nodejs, Django, PHP and the rest, you should go for either nodejs or Django but my personal preference is Django because of its drf(django rest framework) which simplifies your work and makes it very fast to build a restful API.

Basic knowledge of python is required to work with Django and the tutorials can be found on YouTube, udemy, ww3schools and the likes.
With a restful API, you can make calls to your API from both your web app and mobile app.
In line with mobile app development, you will need to know either kotlin for Android dev or swift for ios dev, flutter or react-native for both android and ios dev.

In which way you choose, I wish you best of luck and happy coding!!!

VillagePeople11:
learn react or vue js and build something with it

The OP must be conversant with JavaScript before he can learn React or Vue otherwise he will just get tired and drop it.

SUPREMOTM:


Flutter is not a programming language, it is an 'sdk' short for 'software development kit'. The programming language used in flutter development is Dart, created by Google.

Nobody should tell you what to learn and neither of them is better than the other, but let me give you a heads up. To create mobile apps with Flutter, you will need to install Android Studio and Android Emulator.

After successfully installing them, my 8GB memory laptop started lagging BADLY taking the fun away from the development process. I checked stackoverflow and I saw it was a universal issue. My point is, for smooth Flutter Development, you need at least 16GB of memory on your system.

Official hardware requirement is "3GB minimum and 8GB recommended memory", but I assure you it's a setup for frustration. If your machine has less than 8GB of RAM, forget Flutter.

I am using 8GB RAM and I do open android studio and flutter tho I don't really use flutter but react-native, my point is, even if you are using 16GB or 32GB, if its an HDD drive, it will still be lagging, that's the problem I faced before I changed to SSD, now I can operate my pycharm, android studio, emulator Adobe illustrator at once. The cons of SSD is the expensiveness.

There are many ways to do it;
First option might involve token, you can use jwt token to do that, in which after the user or owner pay for the book, then you generate the token and store it in the database, then everytime the user log in, the token will be retrieved and you can use that to prevent the route or page of the ebook download.

Second option is about using user details in which you setup a variable for every user and that variable will be dynamic based on if the user has purchased the book or not.
Most options also depends on which tools you are using tho.

Fortunatesoul:
Please am using window 8,32 bit,I already installed the python successfully so I proceed to install pycharm as directed by the tutorial am following,after installing the pycharm ,after everything it gives the error

if you have a 32 bit jdk installed define java in >setting>variable setting

Note:I downloaded the 32bit version of the application

After downloading python, you need to set the path when installing it on your laptop, during installation, it will ask you to set the path of python on your laptop. Pycharm has nothing to do with jdk Java as you are using Intel idea or Java text editor.

DrLevi:

okay thanks

What would you recommend for web backend? I'm stuck between many technologies

Also do you think learning web as at 2020 is a good idea? considering how saturated the market is

Sorry Op for derailing your thread... sincerest apologies

To your first question;
There are so many languages framework you can use for backend technology ranging from Javascript, PHP, Java, Python and so on, it depends on which you are comfortable with and the one you feel it's right for you.
I'm using Python and Django as its framework and have never had any regret since then.
Your second question is not a new question. It has been asked so many times but the answer to that is, everywhere is saturated be it data analyst, game development and app development. The truth is find one that suits you and be the best, they will be looking for you.

DrLevi:


Nice!

what did you use for the front end?

He only used django template engine which is powered by jinja and maybe bootstrap or Css

Nice work brother. About the user authentication, you need to validate the username input of the user by converting the username to lowercase because if you don't enter the username the way it is now, it won't log you in...

Django with any Javascript framework is very sweet and nice.

Good job brother.

remi4ever:

Nice one, I'll check it out.

This your app Id though..

lol, just used something unique

My first mobile app I developed using react-native

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=site.legacymusic.tech_my_music_app

I have the main website as well, it is just a call to an API I made.

Nice
But I don't seem to understand that use of indexOf and the -1 there mind explaining?
I'm still learning just started

when using array in Javascript, it comes with methods in which index, indexOf, search are part of. Index in array means find the number in which the object is located. Example of an array[1, 2, 3, 4],
If you do array.indexof(2) will give you 1 because the item is in the array but if it's not in the array it will give you - 1, searching for something in the array gives you 1 or - 1 depending on if the item is there or not.
You can read more on indexOf, index, search in Javascript Array.

Iamsheye:

Tried this, didn't work so I figured lemme do it another way

I tried it with this and it works perfectly and it's more efficient.

Iamsheye:
So l later got the perfect code I wanted

Turns out I did not farabale,my blood was hot

Good bro, but bro the code is too verbose, you can simplify it without using the check variable. Just use if and else statement and the break is unnecessary as well cos you are not using while loop.
if(checkCourse === scorelength or so) {
your logic
} else{ your logic}
You can as well use itenary operator as it makes your code cleaner and efficient.

iCode2:
Really? I actually saw ssd but requested for hdd because I don't know much about it. Doesn't it have issues with crashing?

bro, the reason my most people prefer hdd drive is because of the price.. Ssd is very expensive but the speed is second to none, I was using hdd before, crashes everytime and very slow but since when I have changed to ssd, I regret ever buying an hdd laptop.

iCode2:
Budget isn't the issue. Just thinking twice about coughing out 100k for laptop Well, like you said, buy once and never worry about it again.

I think option 2 is much more better but if you can close your eyes and buy a laptop of ssd drive, even if the size is 128gb, you won't regret you did because of their speed. It will help you in the future as you are adding software to your system.

You can download yarn from their website, and if you have it installed already, find your npm folder and delete it from there and install it from their main website. Hope this helps.

To simplify your code, you might not need to write if statement again to check if it is not.
Just write if(your statement ) and else(if it's not ). You might not even need the check variable as it will check directly.

crownedrookie:
I'm trying to deploy my first fullstack app with NodeJS. Using the git - heroku CLI and I'm following everything on Web Dev simplifieds tutorial, its just not working when I get to the heroku git:remote -a part, tells me "heroku" is not recognized as an internal or external command.
Can any one walk me through the process and what I'm doing wrong??

You have to install heroku first on your machine, then you run heroku login command....

Graspad:
Guys,
Can I go into Python backend (Django) without knowledge of HTML and CSS??
Thanks

I will advise you to learn html and css even if it is their basics because you will need them when coding backend. You will have to check if your logic is working or not by that. As someone has suggested that you learn html, css and Javascript, that will be a better idea as it will give you more details about frontend dev as well. Welcome to the world of web dev.

Barney001:


Wow...you've done things ooo

Do you have that mosh hamedani video.... The complete one?

I've only watched the 6hrs video that he made on YouTube...there seems to be more

I don't have his python tutorial, only react.

arejibadz:
have everything but dont know aw to go about it....nd do i need internet connection to run

You need internet connection to run create-react-app because it will download some files to your package.json file.

Jummate:


Great job bro!

Thanks bro.

Badilstical:

Nice work bro,


Heroku?? How did you host your static files?

Thanks bro.

I used whitenoise via heroku because heroku can only store static files, you will have to host your media files elsewhere such as AWS, and the likes..

Collinsanele:


It's dope bro

Thank you brother.

Samcent:
This info will be very helpful indeed. Wondering why I have been shying away from heroku all this while.
Thanks so very much and keep up with the good work.

Thanks bro. I wish you all the best.

Samcent:
Thanks for sharing. I am adding building django web api to my skill set in this lock down.

Apologies if I am asking too many questions.
Is the db mysql?

When hosting on pythonanywhere, as long as your db is postgres, you must part with some money even if you are using their subdomain.

I used default django database which is dbsqlite3 and on heroku, there is a free addon database given to you if you wanna host your app which is postgres.

You can use postgres from the start with Django if you wanna host on heroku but hosting your app on heroku comes with a free database which is postgres.

Pythonanywhere uses mysql for their regular users but postgres for paid plans only whereas heroku is not..
Hope this helps....

Samcent:
Good work!

Did you build an api for this app?
Also, did you have to pay for the hosting on heroku?

Yes bro, the backend is using Django while the frontend is using React.
On heroku, hosting is free because they will give you their subdomain, that's why .herokuapp is there but you can add your own custom domain from them hosting websites.
Thanks for your comment BTW.

Here comes another project during this lock down.
A combination of React and Django..
It is about a musical app where you stream and add songs via album.
Kindly check it out and leave your comments. Thanks...
