127. A Quick Pros and Cons List on Coding Boot Camps
January 07, 2019

I'm just going to give you a few pros and cons about committing to a boot camp and then a little snippet of a few things I've seen from boot camp grads.
Pros
It's completely immersive. You'll live, breathe, and eat code for a few months.

128. What Is An Interface?
January 02, 2019
If you plan on doing any back-end development, it's going to be important you know about interfaces. At first they seem kind of weird, but once you understand what they are you'll become more powerful than you've ever been.
You'll see interfaces a lot in C# because it doesn't let you inherit multiple classes. That's where interfaces come in. They let you implement the same methods and variables across different classes. An interface is kind of like a list of things that your class has to have.
When you use an interface on your classes, you have to write the implementation of the meth... (read more)

129. 4 Things That Happen After You've Been A Web Dev For A While
December 31, 2018

Burnout Ok, this happens with anything but we're talking about web development here. When you have your first dream/nightmare about code or a particularly difficult client, congratulations!

130. 6 Attributes That Show You Are A Good Developer
December 26, 2018
There are some things that show you really know what you're doing and of course those are the things you want to work one. As a web developer, you need more than just technical skills. You need to be able to communicate with bosses, clients, co-workers, and other people.

131. Web Development !== Computer Science
December 24, 2018
Originally posted on: https://flippedcoding.com/2018/12/04/web-development-computer-science/
Let's start off strong. Web development is not computer science. They are not the same. Some might say that web development is an application of computer science and that is a bit more accurate but still not totally correct. There are just some major differences between the two that need to be discussed.
Computer science is more math and hardware based.
If you've taken a CS class before then you know how much math is actually involved. You have to make sure that the algorithm you're des... (read more)

133. 3 Unrelated Things I Learned Developers Should Do
December 19, 2018
There's more to life than writing code or being a technical wizard. Developers should know how to do way more than that or else they won't remain good developers for long. You can strive to have a great career and still be a whole person.
Here are three completely unrelated things that every developer should be able to do:
Make new hobbies You have to have some other interests in life. Coding is cool, but it's not really something you should be doing 24/7. That's just unhealthy. It's easy to get absorbed into learning as much about web development as you can and it's ok to fight tha... (read more)

135. How To Get Through Those Bad Projects
December 12, 2018
Every developer has that one project. The project that was so poorly planned, so poorly designed that it makes you wonder if this was the right career for you to begin with.

136. What is CORS in Azure?
December 10, 2018
I was recently working on a project involving blob storage in Azure. There was something keeping me from uploading my file and it took me forever to figure out what blocked it. It was the freaking CORS settings in Azure. So like a good developer, I went out into the documentation to figure out how to fix it.
After I got my project blob storage working, I realized that even though I had fixed the problem I still didn't know what CORS really was. Now that I kind of know what it is and what it's used for, I'm going to try to briefly explain it to you.
CORS (cross-origin resource sharing... (read more)

137. What are JavaScript promises? Super high level explanation.
December 05, 2018
Whether you plan on doing anything asynchronously or not, it's a nice little golden nugget to have the knowledge of how to it in JavaScript. An answer to the async problem comes in the form of promises.
JavaScript promises are basically objects that represent the success or failure of some code that's been executed asynchronously. This might not sound like that big of a deal because it's one of those subtle issues that happen in JavaScript.
Using event listeners was one way to watch out for async operations, but there are times the listeners will trigger too early and the event will ... (read more)

138. What are Arrow Functions?
December 03, 2018
There are so many ways to get stuff done in web development. You have functions, callback functions, methods, arrow functions, and all the other functions out there. The focus for this little explanation are the arrow functions because they're relatively new. Arrow functions became a thing when EcmaScript6 (ES6) was released. They are really similar to regular functions except for a few things. First of all, the syntax for writing an arrow function is a lot more compact than a regular function. Here's what I mean: Regular function function getPrice(cost, quantity) { return cost... (read more)

141. What is a tuple in C#?
November 21, 2018
This isn't something that most web developers know about because tuples aren't commonly used in web development. It's not because they aren't useful because they definitely can be. A tuple is just one of the many good things that gets buried under all of the other good things. So let's dig it up and polish it.
To start with, a tuple is a data structure that has a number of elements with different data types. An important thing to keep in mind is that a tuple is a reference type instead of a value type. That means it doesn't store the data in its own memory space. These store the location ... (read more)

143. What Is Polymorphism?
November 19, 2018
This is another one of those obscure terms that developers tend to use a lot. Similar to inheritance, it's one of those concepts that is both easy to understand but hard to explain concisely.
If you've been trying to find a definition of polymorphism that makes sense, I hope that this will help you.
In a nut shell, polymorphism means that you can use the same interface for different underlying data types. A simple example of polymorphism in action is basic math. You can add an integer and a float together and you won't have any problems due to the mismatched data types.

144. What Is Inheritance?
November 14, 2018
If you've gotten into the world of programming, you've probably heard the term inheritance. For some reason, this term is hard for people to explain but easy to understand. So here's an explanation of inheritance that actually makes sense.
Think about yourself and your parents. Odds are that you've heard you have certain features that are really similar to your parents. Maybe you have your dad's eyes and your mom's nose. Those are inherited traits. You have them because your parents have them.
It's the same in programming. You can have a class that gets properties and methods from an... (read more)

147. What's the difference between web development and web design
November 07, 2018
People use the terms web developer and web designer interchangeably when they shouldn't because they are completely different professions. The confusion comes from poorly organized projects web developers doing a little web design and web designers doing a little development. In reality, the two work together to make a website. Their roles are just different.

150. What is a DLL in Web Development?
November 01, 2018
At some point in your journey as a web developer, you'll end up doing something with the DLL files. It's really not as bad as it might sound. You just need a little understanding about how they work and what they are used for.
First off, DLL stands for dynamic link library. These files just hold instructions that other programs can use to do different things. That means multiple programs can use this same code at the same time in different ways. It saves you a lot of time as a developer.
That's how you are able to use different libraries and NuGet packages across all of your projects... (read more)
