Programming / Re: I Need suggestion On Which Laptop To Buy Between Range Of 200-220k by truthCoder: 8:19am On May 16, 2023 |
airsaylongcome: Apple products are a different ball game entirely o. My current ‘workhorse’ is a 2015 MBP. For web and mobile apps development, it does the job, gives me a good retina screen and the quality of the hardware is second to none at that price point. If i would be touching something for 10 hours everyday, it should be a quality device and not some cheap plastic. 2 Likes |

Jashub: The minimum MacBook pro with Metal is the Mid-2012 unibody. They look the same like other unibodies but they have a different board. If buying, dont go for less than mid 2012. Remember, mid and not early. 1 Like |

SimeonOTC: Why must he? If his bias is towards the backend, potentially gravitating towards node.js, why must he get stuck at CSS. OP, learn JavaScript if want to. For CSS, you can learn Tailwind CSS now. It will fast-track your CSS learning. You can learn js before CSS. 1 Like |
Programming / Re: React Js Or Vue Js by truthCoder: 4:56am On May 11, 2023 |
LikeAking: Using directory based navigation is the new standard also in Sveltekit. It has many benefits. Before react can die, you will have to first kill many developers. Even then, new ones will take over. It is just like Php. I don’t use react or next.js if i have a right to choose but that does not mean i don’t respect its leadership position. 1 Like |

liamjakes247: You are very lucky. You are learning at a time when there are many tools to assist you. First, i will introduce you to w3 schools. Start from the very basics. It is free. Dont just read. Practice the exercises. Secondly, your mentor is already available. It os called chatGPT. You can ask it any question and it would not complain. You can even type it all in caps and it will understand you. Finally, I would recommend you look for serious tech teachers to follow on YouTube. There is a guy called net ninja. He teaches in so simpler a way that you will understand. There are many others. Finally, let me warn you ahead. You will feel like giving up many times. Infact, you will feel like you cannot know it or the things you need to learn are so much. Everyone feels that way. The moment you start feeling like you know everything, it is a simple sign that you have not learnt anything new in a while. Dont give up. If you have issues, post them here. There are many people who are ready to help. Dont expect a serious coder to leave everything he has been doing to be your mentor. It doesn’t work that way here. You are your own major tutor. Except you are ready to pay unnecessary fees, no one will. 3 Likes 1 Share |

We are being ruled by fools. Even if Tinubu spoke with you in confidence to step down, first you should understand the importance of separation of powers between the legislative and executive and at least portray the incoming legislature is not under the control of the executive by keeping your frigging mouth shut. So what should we the people do with such an inconsequential piece of rubbish. How did you even become a governor with your leaky mouth? 5 Likes |

Tsfari: LOL. You just reminded me of a story of a guy who has 5 girlfriends and decided he wants to settle down and marry. The first girlfriend is a serious church goer and prays very well. The second girl is a great cook and can cook any meal perfectly. The third girl is an intelligent career lady and rising fast. The fourth girl comes from a wealthy family. The final girl is very respectful, friendly and accommodating. The guy went to different churches and mosques and met different wise people, seeking for advice on whom to marry. Different people gave differing advice. At the end of the day, the guy married the girl with the biggest boobs. Use your booby discretion my guy. 1 Like |

Ceoangelcee: You have 3 macbooks, 2 HPs and one Dell yet you claim the macbooks are shitty devices? Why keep plenty shitty devices? You must feel so happy that you run a local server on your dell? You are possibly a C++ programmer. Your life depends on windows. The OP wants to learn web development. He doesn’t need Mingw. He doesn’t want to run a local server on a dell in his room. Congratulations on being the most qualified programmer on Nairaland. Your name must be Bill Gates the maximus pro max. Unfortunately, this is not a phallus wagging contest. It is to proffer a recommendation to an aspiring web developer. As the Igwe gburu-gburu of Nairaland programmers, you should know that many people dont have external monitors nor need one to write simple websites. I am sure less than 10% of coders here own a 4k external monitor. It is an overkill in order to build iya nkechi’s canteen website. This brings us back to the importance of the quality of the primary screen of the laptop. Everyone knows macs were not built for gaming. The OP is not an aspiring gamer. He is an aspiring website developer. Maybe if you can come down from your royal throne, you would be able to see that. Many developers use apple to develop because that is the only bare metal you can use to develop apple codes. Period. Except you want to start hackingtoshing, you must get a macbook. It is not because it is sleek (though it is sleek and beautiful) but because it is useful. Now your royal highness, the global variable of programming knowledge, i hope i have not offended his majesty with my submissions. All protocols observed. 2 Likes |

They want to steal your tech idea and pitch it themselves to real VCs then come back to employ you for peanuts. Dont share ideas with them.

Programming / Re: Is Mobile App Development This Simple by truthCoder: 8:09am On May 08, 2023 |
ThetrueWord: Its a nice concept for the platform owner. There would be clients without coding skills that want to build an ‘app’. However, you can tell the platform owner that he is making one common Nigerian startup mistake. He is too greedy and the greed would be the demise of the platform if he doesn’t adjust quickly. First, he offers a free tier for only 3 days. Allows to build only one single page. The free tier doesn’t give you access to the .ipk and .ipa files and is as limited as anything you can think of. The irony is that the owner recommended that his users should create their logos on canva.com. The canva that he is recommending, do they offer no download access? His other tiers are even more expensive than looking for an app developer to help you write the real codes from scratch. You will get cheaper solutions on Nairaland sef. This is one of the biggest killers of Naija startups. They are always too greedy and want to start earning from the first day. You see their blogs with 30 views per month having adverts splashed everywhere like ankara. Tell him to build his brand first. He wont die. He should open it up just like the canva he kept recommending. The more free users you have, the more your brand value increases. As for usage, it is for those who want to feel like they have an app. It is as static as anything. Real mobile apps dont have static data. 2 Likes |

worried222: To those cheap programmers here who will accept peanuts for just any job, this is where the problem is: The guy would pay you say 50k to 100k to get the website. You promise him free hosting or he even pays you to host. You will host for him. You pay hosting fees with your card details and use your personal details for the registration. You deliver admin details of the site to the client and he pays you off. A good job done abi? What you dont know is that any fraud done with that site comes back to haunt you. It is your site. Yes you didn’t do any fraud with that site but you built it and hosted it. Even if you just send him the codes, you might have forgotten that there are telemetries and meta data involved. Dont write codes for yahoo boys. It comes back to bite you in the ass. 4 Likes |

hooge: You are clearly assuming the OP is so dumb that he has forgotten he would need to have funds to buy internet data or courses. Do you even know his budget? Should his budget conform to your own pocket? So if someone comes here and asks for advice on whether he should buy a new Mac Studio or a new MacBook Pro M2 Max (both are above $3,000), you would say, 'No o. don't buy it o, go to computer village and buy the N50k used laptop from Chima then use the savings to build a house in the village'? No day assume say your pocket is a global variable. 2 Likes |

Tsfari: Programmers use the pro variants of the Apple laptops and not the air. Get a good 15 inch MacBook Pro, say a 2015. The smaller screen estate of an Air would be limiting when you want to have your IDE and simulation display side by side. Dont listen to those who are condemning the Macbook Pro. If you are ever going to write codes for the the Apple ecosystem, you would need a MacBook Pro, even if it is one single line of code. You are new. How would you know you wont be fascinated by Apple’s Swift UI when you dont even have a laptop that can install XCode? Even if you decide to go cross platform, guess what? You need a MacBook to configure the Apple side of the apps. There is a reason why serious coders worldwide own MacBooks even if they own 10 other systems. Most of the people who condemn MBPs are clearly not owners of a MBP. They look at it from afar and sneer at the owner. ‘Na yahoo boy’. You would be working long hours on your computer for the next 3 years (budget at least 1,000 hours). You need a laptop with a good screen. The retina screen on the 2013 and above MBPs is the best in class, guaranteed. Most other manufacturers cheapen out on the screens. They use cheap panels. Some are just 768 pixels on the vertical and struggle to get to 1080p. 2015 MBP gives you 2880 x 1800 at 220ppi. Good luck finding another manufacturer that will give you that within your budget. In addition, the fit and finish of a MBP is the best. Every manufacturer tries to build to MBP specs. Not the other way round. The speakers on the MBP will also burst your nipples. You will need to watch YouTube videos. Many other laptops with their cheap speakers have poor sound outputs. Listen to clean perfect sounds on the MBP. If you can afford a MBP, get a MBP. 7 Likes |
