It takes about 10 years to be a rockstar programming if you live a fairly normal life.


But if you do thing else but code all day and night, roughly 3 years.

Your calculations based on the 10,000 hrs to mastery right?

Using Laravel
Database schema design 6 hrs
Models : users, profiles, forums, threads, replies, followables, roles and permission, likeables, sharables, attachments - these are the basics alongside relationships - maybe 6hrs
Controllers: For all models (both admin and user) maybe 24hrs

Api: For threads, forums, bla bla.. Maybe like 12hrs

Views: Forum, Thread, User, Reply, Admin etc... Like maybe like 18hrs

Testing: like 96hrs

Re iterations and bug fixing maybe 24hrs.

So it cud take like a month at least

An article from one of the original authors of redux, though it's a little old

Exactly I always tell my friends, React is the visa out of this country, I've seen someone use react native in my office and the app is not only beautiful but feels fast and fluid. Sadly I don't know or use react yet only Vue, but it's something I can pick, do you use Redux, I still don't get why i should use it, other than everyone is using it.

If you know vue, then react shouldn't be difficult..

I haven't tinkered with redux yet but will definitely learn/use it...

As for the why.. That i don't have the technical expertise to answer yet..

So far my experience learning react is really good... Its really not so overly difficult.. It has more to do with your skill in Javascript.

For me understanding the concepts in the following order is key..

1. The virtual DOM.
2. Components.
3. Props and States
4. Lifecycle hooks


Then classical vs functional components.
Stateless vs stateful components
Container vs présentation components
Event listeners
Dom element keys, etc

React is quite interesting i must say... Only ish is SEO considerations, (tho there is server side rendering these days).. Overall its worth it.


And yh there is high demand for react developers and Javascript developers these days.

Gonna include live updates (and may allow it to be set by the user) in the forum I'm building too... And already using material ui will potentially make creating a mobile app for it not too much of a pain in the ass..

I like this! I'm curious, why Flux? Thoughts on Redux?

I'm not too savvy with the individual technologies, just about the data store design pattern for managing data...

I only cited flux solely as an example.. May probably just learn and stick to redux..

Here's an article i found on flux and redux

https://medium.com/@gyeon/redux-vs-flux-a31a02faccf3

I may most likely just stick with redux

So I have been doing a lot of Javascript learning and reading and coding these days and I think a new thread will be helpful for newbies and veterans of the language.

Javascript has become extremely popular these days and is used to do a plethora of stuff.

So shall we talk about our experiences, learning paths, which could include plain old JS or frameworks / Libraries like Angular, React etc.

I personally think JS is fun and rewarding.

I'm currently learning React and I'm trying to develop a full forum with it a learning project.

So far its been fun,

Spent the whole of yesterday developing a api backend (using Php Laravel) and implementing material UI as a front end framework..

Scouted the internet yesterday looking at various forum websites and I got a couple of ideas of which I've designed a db (mysql) for it..


Its a really tasking project but i know i will learn a lot from it especially with restful Api creation, authentication, data integrity in the Front end via flux, as well as useful design patterns in react.


I know a lot of messy code will be written but then again, haven't we all written messy code


So over to the MVPs, pcguru1 et al


There are so many frameworks / libraries it can drive someone nuts lol, meteor, sails, ember, backbone... Like WTF

Also learning react cos of react native and mobile app development...

Will also be sharing some links to articles and interesting github repos.

Here's a Javascript article that can be beneficial to folks

Is DON JAZZZYY AGAIN.. SORRY IS ARGENTINA AGAIN.We have qualified for the FIFA World
Cup six times, and have been drawn in
the same group with Argentina five
times!.. ARGENTINA should start granting NIGERIANS free visa we are now like brothers. Fate always bring us together.

By the way during last world cup in Brazil we had IRAN and BOSNIA, now we are getting CROTIA and ICELAND, I expect this one to be a tough one.

If you think ICELAND are pushover, try Google "ICELAND EURO World cup Qualifiers" proceed and watch their clips.. You will be jawdropped, I won't be surprised if they top our group.. IF UNA THINK SAY I DEY LIE MAKE UNA GO ASK ENGLAND OO. bikonu bye bye ike agwulam

I fear iceland more than croatia sef

adegeye38:
did u actually knw anything abt Croatia?, they won deir group with brazil in 2014, they qualified easily, they have very good players and are very organized, on current form we should fear dem past argentina

I know everything about croatia, so we are the ones the did not qualify easily lol..

Maybe we fit beat croatia, draw iceland.. Just like we did bosnia and iran the last time... Then Argentina nack everybody.. We can qualify like that

Nobody easy to play for that group D o

Lol... Portugal vs Madrid + Barcelona... Eiyah Christiano

Any livres stream links?

Ok.. Cool

Their homepage now

For me the key is value... You don't even need certifications to have value... Constant learning and development, including volunteering, can make your worth skyrocket.

Its more about what you can do than the amount of papers you have...

Yh.. I've noticed it too.. I think they know anyways

bot101:
Wow! Wow!! A lot of misinformation going on here. There is nothing like AJAX developer, and AJAX is not a programming language. It is a part of the JavaScript language and its specification. This post is a boatload of trash. Learn JavaScript well enough (whole at it, also learn to use AJAX), then you can come teach others. You obviously copy pasted text from the era when AJAX was the hype of the internet, and going by the rate at which internet technologies evolve and innovate, that's the stone age.

Lolz.. You got that right...

Desyner:
What if ur interviewer is on NL observing this thread. Just go through the basics so you don't fumble the basics.

He's not doing anything bad lol..

Just know your data structures and design patterns..

If you've been coding c++ for a while them you should be familiar with string and array functions/methods..

You don't need to know all the patterns though, just ag least be able to demonstrate where you can apply the ones you know


Good luck..

And they are still taking pictures??

Wondering why i would want to take pictures of something this gruesome and unfortunate

If your tech savvy.. Get udemydl

Its a python script on github to download courses (if you paid for them).

To get paid courses free.. Just Google search udemy coupons and you'd find lots of free coupons, downside being you may not find the course you're looking for..

Udemydl is the best because it'll get everything including course files and arrange everything into folders

Really don't know why folks find gratification in online attention...
