I have sort of deployed the NodeJS version of this website. However, it is on a port that is not 80 or 443. The reason why is that I am running a NodeJS express server on top of this web server. It’s how I designed the NodeJS application from the beginning. The good news is… Continue reading NodeJS portfolio deployment (sorta)

NodeJS Progress Update (October 2nd, 2023)
I ran into a few snags, but for the most part I have everything for the main site in place on the development subdomain. The express server code performs MySQL queries just fine and everything. There are little changes I’ll need to make like getting all the images into place and getting their names into… Continue reading NodeJS Progress Update (October 2nd, 2023)
New Site Navigation
I’m sorry I have not been writing daily these past few days. I had a patch installed to fix a birth defect in my heart, and I have been taking it pretty easy for the past few days. That being said I finally sat down and got some work done on the new website. In… Continue reading New Site Navigation
Quick Migration Update
Over this past weekend I binged John Wick Chapters 1-4, and I’m kind of proud of myself. I feel like whenever I talk about myself people tend to miss what I’m actually sharing, and jump straight to positivity. Learning how to program the way I did is ridiculously difficult, and I’ve missed out on a… Continue reading Quick Migration Update
New API Structure and Devlog Layout
I have been slacking on progress over the past week or so, but I am happy to share where my site is at now. As my friend put it, “You need to remember there are a lot of people in the world, and shocker that means you’ll come across people from time to time who… Continue reading New API Structure and Devlog Layout
NodeJS Portfolio Page Update
I was going to streamline the index page and use stats to justify my choice, but it’s a lot less work now and in the future to just leave things as they are. Currently my app can run several queries based specifically on the desired programming language, and render the relevant projects. I think the… Continue reading NodeJS Portfolio Page Update
Six Sigma for Website Design
In the past I mentioned if I were to ever make a big change I would use Six Sigma. Well, let’s be honest with ourselves for a moment. What I’ve done with JavaScript is very neat, but with each post it’s going to get larger. The problem is that eventually the script would become too… Continue reading Six Sigma for Website Design
Updated Portfolio Page for Mobile Users
Once again another project that was a lot easier than I anticipated. The HTML and CSS portion was easy because it is easy to hide elements based on screen size. Typically you just create a “hide-mobile” ID, set its display type to none, and encapsulate you want hidden on mobile within the id. You can… Continue reading Updated Portfolio Page for Mobile Users
Update for Resources Page
This script to update my resources page is rolling out a lot more quickly than I had anticipated. The script also incorporates JSON style arrays alongside class objects, which is not what I had initially anticipated. However, since the new resource page has no clickable links I do not need to perform any sort of… Continue reading Update for Resources Page
Responsive Design vs Dynamic Design
If you are new to front-end development you may be unaware that responsive design and dynamic design are two different concepts. It can be frustrating because in English the terms are largely synonymous with one another. However, in the front-end space the words mean two completely different things. The relationship is that every good website… Continue reading Responsive Design vs Dynamic Design
