The difficult part is that development is very broad, so I doubt there are generic resources that will provide info that is actually usable. My suggestion: They could ask the developers they are working with whenever they feel a lack of con

I thought I was on a different website for a moment haha. First impression is good though! Looks clean. One minor annoyance: The sidebar scroll behaves weird. I'm also not a huge fan of the big in your face custom scrollbars. I usually

I use Things 3. Not really a strategy beyond a few reoccurring todo's. I'm not very organized, I just put things in that are important, but not so important that I will surely remember. Or things that will be important later. One

> The main foundation isn't of quickly-accessible knowledge, it's having a good process and strong intuition. Knowledge feels more incidental than being the main focus. Well said! I very much agree.

How often do you write the html params and meta tags? I really don’t care if someone memorized all the meta tags. What matters to me is that if I ask them to write a template they can find out what they need to include according to the late

I wonder why so many interview questions are focussed on knowledge and memory. For most technical roles, and especially in the ever-changing world of FE; your main skill is looking things up and applying what you find. I do find this an int

I think with all information, especially on places like hackernews where people are generally anonymous, you need to be careful what you believe and not. There is a lot of opinion, subjectivity, marketing, double agendas, false information

I don't do it consciously, but I think I sort of do. First I skim over the full PR; get an impression of the changes. During I mark areas that require more attention, or any issues I detect. If it's a new feature; I run the code,

For generally append only prevention; Traditionally it was BEM or similar. Now I would use css modules, or an css-in-js like solution depending on the situation. Basically you have to tame the cascading aspects of css and use them with mode

Ah yeah good old floats. It was all about knowing the clear tricks, not sure I could still do it these days haha. Agree, it was a lot harder. But even that was a lot easier then making layouts with tables, or frames haha, so I didn’t mind,

It's nice to read some positive content about CSS. I personally love CSS. I see CSS as a massive toolbox full of awesome tools, some old, some new, some I use all the time, others I barely know they exist, but it's nice they are t

This list makes me realize how much I appreciate design. For all the ones I tried I much prefer the "heavy" versions. It's probably different on a slow connection so it's good the lightweight versions exist, but for me d

Sure! I got that from your post, and I also recognize it btw; it can feel like you have to "rein in", which is not very enjoyable. But yes, you can have major impact on individual people and on the team as a whole, and if you got

This is not helpful imo. Although it correctly identifies a problem of badly implemented controls. The explanation and solution show a lack of knowledge and understanding about the topic and current situation. It's easy to say "us

I missed it when wearing a mask, but I recently got an Apple watch and that solves it for me. I still have touch id on my iPad and I truly miss face id, I find it quicker and more accurate. Often I find myself staring at my iPad haha.

Not against it as long as the basics remain free. I don't think I would be interested in the content that much (unless they go way beyond the usual FE articles), but I'll happily pay $100 a year in support of MDN/Firefox. Eve

I personally prefer to just dive in and attempt to get something done. I don't really spend time purely "familiarizing". It involves a lot of tracing where something happens, just following code, or using logging and debugger

Just to throw it out there; a static site generator with markdown could also work for you. Next.js or Gatsby with markdown or MDX for example, there are many good options. I would say you can't go wrong with any of the options you ment

That's not the point I'm trying to make. I agree that it's not the only purpose, and even if it was I don't think that's bad per se. You could also see it as fulfilling a purpose to make money, they often go togethe

The only values that are real are the ones that contribute to making money. Values go out of the window real quick whenever they negatively impact revenue, whatever they are. I like the idea of anti values, certainly much better, but even t

I definitely think Next.js is a great option for such websites. The main reason is that it can do static site generation with React, as well as SSR. It's really simple to set up, and very flexible. It means you can build quickly and ev

Not familiar with Rust, but I really like the ReScript (OCaml) module system. It just gets out of the way. Verbosity is easy to prevent with "open" statements. The nice thing about those is that you can put them in a local scope w
