I'm backend developer and have to build a frontend for my project. Can write some simple JS, but would avoid Big Javascript Frameworks ))
This should be an almost static site:
some pages will contain a kind of custom search component: an input field with 10-12 checkboxes/dropdowns containing HTML+JS+CSS. I already have a working prototype.
other pages like About/Contact/FAQ/Help - completely static, pure Bootstrap HTML/CSS (and minimal JS)
Question1: suggest a template engine. Something similar to Jekyll would be great. (used Jekyll in the past - the template system is OK, but not the Ruby parts of it) Something that has good integration with Bootstrap and Liquid templates
Question2: suggest a JavaScript bundler. Should have good integration with template engine and Bootstrap. Probably not Webpack: I'm afraid of those huge config files. Tried Parcel a bit: it is not bug-free, the experience was not smooth. Don't know about Vite.
Question3: what is known about usage of Bootstrap (+template engine) with an AI-powered code editors ? (Cursor, Windsurf or something else) I've heard stories of people generating big chunks of applications with these things. I think it should work well with Bootstrap HTML, but I don't know how it would work with the template engine.
Hi, I created a tool that converts a photo of a diagram into SVG.
While taking notes, I sometimes sketched diagrams in a notebook that I later wanted to include in documentation, but a photo of a page doesn't look great :)
To make things a bit easier I created this side project.
The results aren’t always perfect, but they should be good enough for basic drafts.
If you’d like to give it a try, here’s the link:

Currently I am in 5th sem of my btech cse, I have recently joined a starrtup as an intern as web devloper frontend role, first when first meet of project was made from client he told us to tell them that we have 1 year of experience, then he told me to devlop app all of a sudden, which wasn't my field of learning, but I decided to learn it but when I look at management, our manager is same age as mine and in same semester, also their are no senior developers for help and they are pushing to build app same as insta from interns only consisting of 3, one for frontend which is me, second for backen and third for crypto related work and upon looking at second project it was battle royale which I can't even think of, should I quit?
Im 18(M), currently studying freshman wants to bachelor in computer engineering also studying and staying in Lebanon. I would like to know would it be possible to find a remote job in web development with no experience and degree? Obviously ill be building a portfolio with few projects of mine but everywhere i search, even junior web development job needs at least a degree. Is it just impossible to find a job before finishing up my degree since i do not want to continue letting my dad pay for my tuition or at least not all of it. Thank you for anyone that answers.
Hey everyone, I’m a fresher trying to plan my learning path and would love some advice.
I’ve noticed two different approaches among job seekers:
Personally, I feel that learning multiple stacks is a better idea because it allows me to apply for a variety of roles—whether it’s backend development with JavaScript, Python, or Django, or frontend development with React, Vue, and Angular. I believe being a person who can learn and adapt to multiple technologies might make me a better candidate for opportunities.
But since I’m a fresher, I might be wrong in my perspective. That’s why I’d love to hear your opinions. For a fresher aiming to get hired, which path do you think is more effective? Should I:
I’d appreciate insights from recruiters, hiring managers, or anyone who’s been through this journey!
Thanks in advance! 😊
So I want to build a plat(an app or a website) that allows content creators to make courses and sell them to their fans I will be charging the content creators an installation fee and a subscription who want to help me you can DM me here or reply to this post
Hi everyone, my name is Rishab. I am a full stack web developer having hands on experience on React js, next js, Angular 17 Node js, typescript. Currently doing job. I want to utilise my free time to earn some extra cash. So if anyone interested to hire me you can directly DM me. I can work for less charge as well as I want to have some experience on freelancing works. Thanks.
i have one big idea I've been working towards for nearly a decade, from which I've abandoned my direction in mind-sciences at UCSD to grow competent in fullstack web development.
While working towards the above startup, I want to create three web applications that I would both use and sell to specific industries:
A website for indie tech organizations around things like 3d printing, VR/AR, hosting classes, meetup groups, makerspaces, hackespaces, co-design pages for iterating projects, drone-building, etc. The site would allow for showcasing productions, schedulling groups, forums, chat, and selling specialty items like 3D prints, VR/AR designs, hardware tech. I could 'sell' such a site to various organization, university depts, maker/hacker spaces, meetup groups, and other educational and creative spaces.
Soft-tech indie site for selling T-shirt designs, specialty gear, handmade items, art projects. Such a site would allow for many features included in 1, such as schedulling, showcasing, e-commerce, forums, etc.
Specialty blog for developing ontologies over time as people create content on it, and link their blogs/blurbs/pages in every possible way (even automating the process with synonym detecting API-implementation). I would personally use this site for various intellectual projects I've been working on for years: Predictions, Optimising Intelligence Lifestyle/checklist, Longevity Checklist, Moral Philosophy, Mind Science (including neuroeconomics, neurphenomenology, psychophysics), Technocultural evolution (including paleontology, history, philosophy of science, etc), and lastly, comparitive religion. This site could become a template for writers, academics, and content creators who want their intellectual work organized in ways that auto-generate useful data over time, creating what I'm interested in: ontologies as final, settled results in academic topics.
My goal is to get very early versions of these online within a few weeks of NOW, and find the right people with whom I can develop them in ways w would both find meaningful to design and use, and towards novel market value so we can both make big money and escape the growing trenches fated to consume entire demographics in the coming years.
I have an ultimatum that might appear too costly on the surface, but I'm confident might suffice to ensure a satisfying, productive partnership with people just met:
LLL + actively wanting the best for your partner without expecting anything in return (or expecting them to regsrd you as nonexistant).
LLL stands for Love, Lust, and Listening. Lust outside a sexual partnership can stand for an insatiable hunger to know the other person, learn about them, from them, with them, etc. Love pretty much covers the " + actively wanting...", but clarification is always needed with love. Listening is for those times your appetite to know the person is tired, but you're yet eager to hear them even when you don't feel like it.
If partners could always know what such terms mean, i think humans could enter successful relationships all over the place out of nothing.
And since I'm an advocate of Budhhism, I don't believe I exist anywway beyond an intersubjectively imagined social construct. I like being unburdened of a self in a society always trying to define (confine) who I am, as the moment is only ever endurable when nobody exists...only sights, sounds, sensory bombardements upon the grey mush in this skull all happening on their own.
DM me if interested. I might not check back here very soon.
Oh, and I'm a midlevel developer in node, express, mongodb (also postgres), more interested in successfully laucnhing a startup than web dev itself. I prefer ejs or vanilla js than frameworks, but if you know them well, that's ok too.
Hi everyone,
I’m looking to get into web development, but most beginner books I’ve found seem outdated. I came across these two:
Modern Web Development: A Beginner's Guide to HTML, CSS
HTML and CSS: Design and Build Websites
Has anyone tried them, or do you know of a better up-to-date option? Would love your input!
Thanks!
Hi guys! 👋
I'm Yan, from Quebec, Canada, and I usually speak French.
I'm developing a project using Vue3, a mobile application called SpaceScope 🚀. The goal of this app is to keep you updated with the latest space news and ensure you never miss the next rocket launches.
75% of the project is already done. You can check out the online version here: http://149.56.44.141/ (I suggest resizing your web browser to the minimum width and reducing the height a bit to simulate a mobile phone, or use this Chrome extension: https://www.webmobilefirst.com/ .)
Regarding the release of the app on the App Store and Play Store, I prefer to keep it private, but it will work. We can discuss whether we release the app under both our names or start a small mobile apps startup.
I am using the Launch Library 2 API and Space News API for this project, fetching the data in JS. The project is currently hosted on my VPS.
What I need help with:
If you are interested in the project, please hit me up! 🚀

As a student in last semester with basic knowledge of web development how to get chance to do internship in companies to get real experience as there is less jobs and to much competition and every time the interview is of different type somebody ask hard theory questions some ask coding it was so random how to prepare
I'm an aspiring web developer currently diving into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I've worked on a few simple projects to sharpen my skills and understand the basics better.
I'm here looking to connect with others who share a passion for web development whether youre a beginner like me or someone more experienced. My goal is to trade knowledge, collaborate on small projects, and grow together in this exciting field.
If you're interested in teaming up or sharing insights, let me know! Let's build something cool and learn from each other. 😊
Many professionals, especially startups, rely on traditional methods to find companies that need a website: Yellow Pages, startup directories, Facebook, Instagram, or even Google Maps. While these methods can work, they often require a lot of manual effort. That’s where Webleadr comes in. A platform where web designers, developers, SEO specialists, and similar professionals can easily find web design leads—such as businesses without websites—with just a couple of clicks, along with many other features (check the website to explore all of them)! There is also a demo video available on how this application works.
Webleadr offers a one-time, credit-based system: $12 for 100 business leads. No subscriptions or recurring fees—pay only when needed. Credits stay in your account and can be used anytime, with options to buy more as needed. For example, if 40 out of 100 leads lack websites and 15 use third-party services (e.g., Facebook), and you secure just a mere 3 clients with basic sales skills, you could earn around $2,000. Your cost? Just $12.
The bottom line is that Webleadr offers an extremely quick and efficient solution to find web design leads in just a few clicks and call them with just one click of a button. From there, all you need to do is apply your sales skills to convince them that having a website is a worthwhile investment for their business.
Know a web designer, developer, or SEO specialist who could benefit from this? Please share this post with them—they’ll thank you later!
Hi first of all thank you for taking some time to read this. I am an website developer having one year of experience. I am good at Html, css and JavaScript. For front end library, I use React js and next js to build websites. so I am looking for freelancing work in website development. So if anyone interested to hire me please DM me. I won't charge more. I only want to work in my leisure time after my full time job. Thanks.
Hey all just for some context I have started doing some freelance web development work. I know how to build a website from scratch but I'm sure that's not the best option for building a website for small local businesses - it only needs to be a simple static site with about us, gallery, contact form etc. What is the go to technology for building this? Would it still be Wordpress and hosting on bluehost?
Hello everyone, First of all, thank you for reading this and taking some of your time to help me.
I will start with some context here, I am a 21 years old graduate in applied maths and currently in a Finance MSc, this to say that I am not a web developer and to justify my coming questions.
Since two months I set up a service based business which is making some decent sales up to now. This is a side hustle for the moment but events made me understand that I could try to scale this a little bit and get more serious. We do the service very well according to our clients feedback but to get to the next level I need to build a website and establish some presence online, both to streamline the user experience, payment system and data handling but also for marketing purposes and to widen my reach.
I am in charge of the tech because the "company" is mine and I want to learn. I have a some solid Python background due to previous internship experiences and academic projects so that helps. My main constraint is that I need to release a first version of the website online for the beginning of February 2025, that is the goal I set up.
I built the front-end of my website using HTML, CSS and Vanilla JS so that I learn and gain full control over my website, thus being later able to unbuild and rebuild it when needed. There is no issue design-wise and it seems to work just fine on localhost. Later on I'll pick up a framework such as React and rebuild it.
Now let's get to the checklist for this website: It is basically a landing page that allows the client to 'get started' with a call to action button where he fills a short form with basic information (text only: name, email, phone number and company name) and is able to book a call with us through a calendar system. The client does not need to create any sort of account or whatsoever for this at the moment. I don't need database storing for this first version of the website. This being said, I will later need to add a payment system and database storing because I will collect CSV and Excel files.
HOWEVER, I am inexperienced with the backend, I would need to pick up a framework and build from there. I learn fast and have no problem with new things. I would also like some advice on hosting, what hosting service to select? I know there are plenty of tutorials online but when you are inexperienced, you can quickly get lost in the ocean of videos and blog posts so I am looking for more experienced devs that can guide me to set this up fast and not loose to much time.
Thank you for your help and your time.
Hi guys, I am currently learning web dev and learned some frontend backend frameworks (react,angular, nodejs, express koa) and db (mongodb PostgreSQL). And would like a partner/partners to build some projects during the Christmas break. Ps ( I’m just a beginner)
