I'm a week away from graduating from my coding bootcamp (yay!) and I've begun the process of job hunting. I've heard back from one of the companies I've applied to and they'd like me to come into the office to do some pair programming with one of the engineers on their team using CoderPad. As this is my first time, doing this style of interviewing, what can I expect during the pair programming? What are some things you have experienced during this type of interview that you wish you'd known about before going into the interview? How can I best prepare for this? Any and all advice is very much appreciated.

Alright, today is the second day of my first startup. I have codenamed the project "danny", named after my second born :)

So, danny is going to be a web app which allows a typical user to host their websites using Dropbox. Let me first, lay down the objectives that danny is trying to achieve:

  1. A user should be able to quickly signup using their Dropbox account.
  2. Once they signup, a folder called "danny" should be added to their Dropbox "Apps" folder.
  3. Whenever they create a new site from danny's web console, a new folder should be created in `~/Dropbox/Apps/danny` with the name of the site. And, it should host this website on `http://[name-of-website].danny.com`.
  4. Once the website is setup. Any changes to the site's files on the user's computer should be deployed to a draft website. For instance `http://draft.[name-of-website].danny.com`.
  5. On the click of a button called "Publish", this draft website should be published to `http://[name-of-website].danny.com`

So, these are the minimum set of objectives that I have setup for danny. And, achieving this is going to require 3 large subsystems.

  1. The web console which allows users to authenticate using Dropbox and provides a UI.
  2. The *listener* sub system which listens to events from Dropbox when files change and keeps the data in sync.
  3. The *webhost* sub system which actually hosts the websites.

I am a huge fan of *[Elixir](https://elixir-lang.org/)* and *[Phoenix](http://www.phoenixframework.org/)*. And, Elixir lends itself very nicely to this particular problem.
One of the difficult parts of the app will be to listen for lots of incoming events and to download lots of files. Both of which are a piece of cake for Elixir.

Here is a quick diagram I drew which shows the communication between different parts of the system.

![danny diagram](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/vq10j5ycluun1weow661.jpg)

All of these subsystems will be part of a single monolothic app initially. I may separate these towards the end.

So, currently I am thinking of a single monolothic Elixir/Phoenix app which stores data in a Postgresql database. And, a bit of javascript and css.
I have already started building out an app, and should have a working prototype within a week. However, writing the software seems to be the easy part :)
I also need to spend some time interacting with potential customers for feedback. That is going to be a teeny bit difficult. However, nothing in life is easy.

*Onward we go!*

categories:

---

Today, was a productive day. I was able to setup CI on the awesome circleci.com website.
I wrote a few tests for the sync code which would interact with Dropbox. A very important
lesson that I learnt early on is: Keep your critical piece of code well tested.
Also, it gives me great confidence to jump in and change things when I know that I have a good
set of tests backing me.

Writing code is always the easy part. I plan on spending some time trying to interact with potential
customers to get a sense of the features they'd like to see in the app. This is always the difficult part.
Hopefully, I'll be able to make some head way today. I'll write up about the feedback I receive too.

That's it for today. Not much in the form of updates. However, good progress has been made!

Onward!

title: Share Your Experiences with Impostor Syndrome
published: true
tags: discuss

I'm currently prepping a talk called Overcoming Impostor Syndrome for a development conference, and ever since my proposal was accepted, I've had lots of devs come up to me (in person or via email / Twitter) and share their personal experiences and stories about dealing with impostor syndrome in their own careers. There are TONS of developers at every skill and experience level who have felt underqualified when they really weren't, or like they were just faking it and hadn't been caught yet.  

The response I've gotten to this topic so far has really moved and inspired me (and I haven't even given the talk yet!) For this reason, I want to try and collect some of these stories, to show that this experience is VERY normal and developers who feel this way aren't alone – especially junior devs. 

If this resounds with you, could you leave a comment below, sharing your experiences with impostor syndrome? Maybe a time when you felt particularly like the novice one in a group, or just the attitude / techniques you've developed to push past the feeling. I think it would be really powerful to have a ton of responses, showing just how many of us have felt this way / still feel this way.

Anyhoo, here goes. I am building a web host which is going to use Dropbox for file sync. If you wanted to a simple static web host. What are the features you'd look for in it?

 1. Price
 2. Performance
 3. Reliability
 4. Ease of use
 5. Anything else?

I'd really appreciate feedback on this :)

Since installing Visual Studio 2017 I have been struggling to get my code folding to work in Javascript. I can't begin to explain how many hours I have wasted trying to find a solution for a problem I was having, and trust me, I have Googled like mad. So in an attempt to help someone who might be struggling with the same issue and kind find the answer, here are the steps I took to fix it.

1. Open a .JS file.
2. In the editor window, right click and navigate to Outlining > Stop Outlining.
3. Right click again and navigate to Outlining > Start Automatic Outlining.
4. Close the file, and reopen it.

The issue should not be fixed. It's a simple trick, and I have no idea why outlining does this, but hey, this fixes the issue.

First thing first, let me be clear this is observation post and some sort of solution approach. Last week I analyzed apex application which was created on apex 4.x and imported to apex 5. The application was imported successfully and I knew that I **can't use universal theme features** ( for example template options). Now for the interesting part and that is **validation process/execution**. This has **changed** in apex 5, but also for imported application it did not stayed in **apex 4 "mode"**.
Here is the explanation: 
In apex 4.x validation are rendered as html region after page is submitted but in apex 5 validation are actually applied by javascript. Before submitting page there is AJAX call that return JSON array with errors. Look at the example down below..

Example how it looks in apex 5:
![](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/v49wh1deiv7oscchn2yi.png)
![](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/pf8r2qm39v5cma1hwx1q.png)
Example how it looks in apex 4:
![](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/e7gz7xsf7jv9ka8ynrpf.png)
![](https://thepracticaldev.s3.amazonaws.com/i/555zi8h9yqzth3pdi46r.png)

Now in our application which was build on apex 4 we hided validation region and displayed validation using **jquery jgrowl plugin** after page submit.

- [jquery jgrowl github link](https://github.com/stanlemon/jGrowl) 
- [example of jgrowl](http://jsbin.com/iqipox/1/edit?html,output)

when we migrate to apex 5, message where not displayed, and reason is AJAX call.. 
```html
<script type="text/javascript"> 
$(document).ready(function() { 
  $.jGrowl($('#static-id-of-val-region').html()); 
}); 
</script> 
```

And the solution was that I changed code on page initialization (code snippet above) to this:

```html
<script type="text/javascript"> 
apex.message.setThemeHooks({
    beforeShow: function(){ 
        $.jGrowl($('#static-id-of-val-region').html()); 
    }
}); 
</script> 
```
I applied callback on **apex.messages** before validation shows.
More about this can be actually found in [apex JS DOCS](https://docs.oracle.com/database/apex-5.1/AEAPI/apex-message-namespace.htm#AEAPI-GUID-35AF8B30-48DF-44CC-9329-90C054C3D666)

Also I found that on page login they used "old" approach, they render validation region, so **setThemeHooks** won't work here...

I did some thinking and came up with this scenario regarding apex js API:
You have apex 5 on development env. (because of faster development) and some old apex 4 production env. that for some reason it won't get upgrade in near feature. You use some specific apex JS API that is only available in apex 5 and you deployed that code to apex 4 production env. and then the fun starts :D
