HTML All The Things - Web Development, AI, and Developer Careers

In this absolutely packed episode, Matt and Mike discuss a mash up of different topics from advanced data structures & algorithms through third-party server migrations. Data structures & algorithms can get very complex, but should they affect your daily web development journey? Imposter syndrome is something that almost everyone experiences in their life, web developer, or not - the duo discuss what they think might be a big cause of the syndrome. And finally, a rather niche - but important topic - server migrations, specifically those that you don't control yourself, but are instead dumped in your lap by third-party service providers.

In this episode of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss a UX tip that you can use on virtually any project. When you're in early testing of an app, or website, if you reach for something, and it isn’t there, treat that as if it’s broken. As you test with your family, friends, and colleagues you'll notice that they will instinctually reach for things, like a button, or gesture and when they do - nothing happens. While they can easily be overlooked, you absolutely should not let it slide. Instead, treat this missing functionality like a bug, treating it like an important issue that needs to be resolved (or at least discussed with your team). You can find us on...

In this episode, Matt and Mike discuss all the ins-and-outs of APIs including what they are, how they work, what they're used for, and more specifically - how to build them quickly using Strapi. Making your own API can easily get out of hand, as you go down the rabbit hole of functionality and usability, luckily Strapi can help you spin up APIs quickly and easily so you can get started straight away. Built on NodeJS, Strapi has free and paid options, so you can get started for free - and then switch on over to the paid version once you start scaling. You can find us on...

In this episode of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss the topic that's been taking over the news lately and that is GameStop, BlackBerry, and AMC stock. Basically a war has broken out between short sellers (hedge funds) and the people over on /r/wallstreetbets over these stocks resulting in major losses for some, and incredible wins for others.

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss the art of becoming self-taught. When you want to learn something new you basically have two options, teach yourself, or go to a traditional school/course. While self-teaching sounds like it's the easier option, it's actually oftentimes found in both. Traditional courses can't get into the weeds on every single topic they need to teach you, and furthermore self-teaching is a skill that they usually want you to learn anyway. The duo discuss the differences between self-teaching and traditional courses, as well as some of the best methods to teach yourself the skills you want to know. You can find us on...

In this episode of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss the value of time versus the value of money. Many people will put in $100 of effort in to save $10, and whilst there are some situations that call for that sort of imbalance of value, in general all that extra effort just isn't worth the time. Some people treat time like it's unlimited and that money is limited, whilst in fact time is limited, and money is unlimited (you can always get another job, or start another side hustle - you can't make yourself younger).

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss the eagerly anticipated topic of web bundlers with a specific focus on Webpack and Snowpack. While making websites with vanilla code can be great, sometimes you gotta call on a bunch of plugins and frameworks to put together something really special in a reasonable amount of time. When all that stuff has to work together web bundlers can make compiling a breeze. This episode features a tonne about web bundlers including what they are from the most basic of examples, through how to use them effectively in your projects. You can find us on...

In this episode of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss a potential UX problem across the board. As UX increasingly makes things easier in tech, it makes very difficult tasks easy - and furthermore makes easy tasks even easier (or even completely automated). The result of this is a generation of people that grew up with tech, that seem to be "tech savvy" but in reality they're moreso just "familiar with tech" having no idea what's actually going on in the background - even at a high level. Is this a problem? You can find us on... Facebook | Twitter | Instagram RSS | Patreon | Spotify Medium | YouTube | GitHub Reddit | Discord

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss how to avoid being overwhelmed when you're already busy. Almost everyone has been there before - you have a full plate, and the phone calls just keep on rolling in. During these stressful times it's easy to become overwhelmed and break down which isn't good for you, or your work. Luckily the tips, tricks, and tactics discussed in this episode will have you powering through these difficult times. You can find us on...

In this episode of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss something that's been cropping up on social media, and in the tech news recently - the WhatsApp policy changes. Due to the nature of the changes and of course the affiliation with Facebook, many of you are probably being told to switch to other apps, such as Signal. While Matt doesn't care about the situation, having used WhatsApp and Facebook for a number of years - Mike has done a small amount of research and has a different (yet very similar) perspective on the situation.

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss how to start a new side project, with a heavy emphasis on how Mike takes his side projects from concept through production including discussions on free versus paid tools, side projects versus side hustles, and much more.

In this Web News, Matt and Mike discuss Matt's recent email detox.

In this edition of Web News, Matt and Mike discuss releasing buggy products to the public including some offerings that Google has released, and of course the very topical Cyberpunk 2077 (especially on PS4 and Xbox One). Iterative design is nothing new in tech, but lately it seems like it has been taken to the extreme, where even very large mega corporations are releasing basically alpha, or beta, software into the public without any sort of "early access" tag that lets people know that it is unfinished. You can find us on... Facebook | Twitter | Instagram RSS | Patreon | Spotify Medium | YouTube | GitHub Reddit | Discord

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss the difference between side hustles and side projects so you can choose which is right for you! It's easy to assume that a side hustle is something that is "just on the side" and can be ignored whenever you're not feeling it, but a side hustle is a business and ultimately cannot be ignored if you want any consistent success. However, if you're just going for a personal goal, the very similarly named side project might be just what you're looking for. All the technical and product making action of a side hustle, without the commitment of pleasing customers and processing payments. This week changed up the format of the show a bit as Matt and Mike say goodbye to Weekly Pain Points, hello to Weekly Growth Goals, and separate the Web News segment into it's own mini-show that'll be aired right here on this feed!

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss revisiting old projects, whether they be for personal use, or for a longtime client, we all have those projects that are on old codebases, or using a completely different technology from what we use in the moment. Going back to these old projects can be like a time capsule for how we used to code back in the past and while the results may (or may not) be pretty, getting back into the groove can be a real pain. The duo discuss this and much more about old code bases throughout the majority of the episode and then switch over to the Web News to discuss Matt's new two phone life or "Two Fone Lyfe" to be more specific.

In this episode, Matt and Mike discuss one of the most overlooked requirements of running a web agency - customer support. It's very easy to think that the biggest hurdle to your business will be learning and keeping up with all the new tools and skills that you'll need to deliver modern websites to your clients, but in reality, support can be equally if not more of a challenge especially when it can derail your entire day's schedule and have you helping someone for little to no money. Then in the Web News, the duo discuss a holiday gift guide, with a twist! Instead of the typical, buy this for a person that likes this, instead, Matt and Mike discuss the mentality around gift giving. If someone is a web developer for work, is it in bad taste to buy them a computer chair for their home office as a gift? You can find us on...

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss the idea of the internet's currency in regards to social media and marketing yourself (or your business) online. Every internet entrepreneur has seen self-help business gurus, marketing experts, and more promise that their methods of posting on Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, TikTok, and Facebook will make you a successful businessperson. While a lot of this advice is real and can absolutely be helpful, the sheer amount of things that you have to do to climb the mountain of success can cloud or even completely cover up the real reason why you wanted to bring your business online in the first place - the content! Content, above all else, is king! Then in the Web News the duo briefly discuss some new tech including the Xbox Series X | S, the PlayStation 5, and of course Apple's new bunch of Macs running on ARM. You can find us on... Facebook | Twitter | Instagram RSS | Patreon | Spotify Medium | YouTube | GitHub Reddit | Discord

Facebook | Twitter | Instagram RSS | Patreon | Spotify Medium | YouTube | GitHub Reddit | Discord

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss their own personal inefficiencies and what they're looking at improving upon. It's very important to know what you do well and what you do not - but it is arguably equally as important to know what you want to (and hopefully will) improve on, and what you will not be working on. It's impossible to learn everything, all the time, and being overwhelmed just makes your learning experience more difficult than it has to be. Then in the Web News, the duo discuss their excuses for using mobile tech, even if there is a lack of travel and even typical outings these days. You can find us on... Facebook | Twitter | Instagram RSS | Patreon | Spotify Medium | YouTube | GitHub Reddit | Discord

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss their experiences with an ever-growing amount of stacks, plugins, and technologies in the web development world.

This episode covers the pros and cons of multiple stacks, as well as the stacks that Mike uses in any given day. Then in the Web News, the duo discuss a touchy topic that can be summarized with the phrase "Are we only as good as our last ticket?" You can find us on...

Whether the topic was too new to them at the time, wasn't meaty enough to fill discuss a lot, or was too specific to expand upon - these topics all together formed an interesting varied episode that the duo hope you enjoy!

As apart of our 100th episode celebration we answered your questions in a Q&A style alongside a discussion on the future of HTML All The Things, and how we've grown along this incredible journey.

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss iterative design. No matter what you're designing, or using, it went through some sort of iterations before coming to market. Something as simple as adjusting a font size contributes an iteration and shows a commitment to make a product better. When it comes to web development, if you're not classically trained in design, or UI/UX then iterative design is your best friend - as long as you do your research and pay attention to other modern UI/UX you'll have a great baseline that you can slowly but surely iterate on to eventually make a production-worthy display. Then in the Web News, the guys discuss their Top 10 JavaScript open source repos for May 2020 including: reveal.js, ws, Fuse.js, and more! You can find us on...

In this tidbit, Matt and Mike discuss the recent news that Joe Rogan's JRE (Joe Rogan Experience) podcast will be heading onto Spotify exclusively in just a matter of months. Even though this isn't web dev/design, or small business related - it does affect our medium of podcasting. This also potentially affects the entire structure of podcasting as you used to be able to choose your favourite podcast app and then just listen. Now that we're seeing exclusivity come to light, you may have to have multiple podcast apps just to listen to all your favourite shows. Furthermore, this could affect monetization moving forward as well, where all the podcast apps you have start running premium subscriptions that you will need to subscribe to in order to continue listening. It is important to note that this sort of monetization is not what is happening to JRE, as stated in the announcement the show will remain free on Spotify. You can find us on...

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss something more important than your MVP (Minimum Viable Product), project cornerstones. If a feature of your MVP has no viable substitute, focus on ironing that out first - then move on to the rest. These project cornerstones, if left unattended, can lead to a project's complete failure. Imaging working on the UI, text chat, and overall feel of an app like Snapchat, only to find out that the stack you're using won't allow you to use the camera on iOS devices. Problems like that can easily be overlooked and can just as easily result in hundreds of hours of lost work. You can find us on...

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss new and interesting web tech such as web assembly, API- first development, Flutter Web, and much more.

In this tidbit/web news, Matt and Mike discuss the difference between Peer-To-Peer(P2P) and Centralized cloud computing methods. Recently the difference between these two cloud computing methods has been brought up due to all the data that we process inside of centralized datacenters that are often owned by large corporations like Facebook and Google. With that, there is cause for concern as to what is happening to that data and how/where it is stored. There is also the concern that most of the software used by larger companies, Facebook for example, is not open source - so it is difficult (or sometimes impossible) to tell exactly what Facebook's software is doing without that source code being available publicly for experts to analyze.

In this episode, Matt and Mike discuss proposing projects to your team in the early stages of an idea. When talking to your team with an idea, it's a lot less formal than preparing research and documentation for an investor, for example. Instead, the idea needs to be mostly flushed out, with some small holes that your team, or additional research can easily remedy. You need and want to sell your team on your idea, so the idea needs to be presented in such a way that you get them excited or interested, not bored and rolling their eyes. Over time as you present ideas to the same people over and over, you'll hone your presentation skills and know what certain people expect in your proposal For example, if there's an accountant on the team, they might want rough numbers on how much it'll cost to make right out of the gate, or may your UX expert wants to know the target audience and devices right away. This week's episode went a little longer than expected so we've spun off our Web News portion in a tidbit that will be published later this week! You can find us on...

In this episode Matt and Mike discuss some of the most popular web design tips, but with a bit of a twist. Instead of just going through the list, the duo tackle them from a developer's point-of-view instead of a designer. As a web developer, especially a frontend developer, it's very common that your job will overlap that of the web designer, or artist. Sometimes you'll not have an artist, or branding expert handy and you'll be left to create a UI all on your own. Luckily iterative designs, familiarity with user interfaces, and a knack for modern design techniques (ie responsive design) are all you need to create a great website. You can find us on...
