I want to build a web app that will have python code as backend. Usually what I do is have an aws instance with IP and I use that for full flexibility (and I have both backend and front end code there with nginx) and connect domain to cloudflare for some security. However, now I have a special functionality, I need a user db (authentification, captcha, user db logic) . I heard the best for this is supabase or firebase - they already have this user logic stuff built in, but that is backend as a service to my understanding and I won’t be able to use both that and my python backend. Or am I wron ..read more

I beg you please review my code about 'Bell Notification' [Laravel, jQuery] Context: Its a bell notification. It fetches data from the database and sends to the user. if its personal notification (type='personal') it gets sent to the user with that user_id.

Problem: 1) I don't know what I am doing but I want to keep it with ajax sending request as other way seems harder. Even the some code that works doesnt feel right. Overall ..read more

I'm finally getting a bit of traction working for myself and I'd like to be able to generate some recurring revenue from clients rather than just a one time payment for a website. The low hanging fruit is hosting, but I feel like I can't really charge much for that given how cheap hosting is, especially for static sites. There's website managements in case clients want to update their websites but would rather have someone make those updates for them, but I'm not really sure how to price this. It also depends on whether a client makes a lot or very little changes to their site. I was thinking ..read more

At my company we are thinking about making a pwa, instead of an Android + iOS app. This way we only need to maintain one client and we can push updates faster. On iOS you can't request a user to install a pwa app and instead we need to present instructions on how to do that. Now this might not be the best user experience, but our clients are not random visitors, so they might be a bit more willing to look past that. Our main goal is to have an app for both iOS and Android, while sharing as much code as possible and sending push notifications to our clients. Offline functionally is not a requi ..read more

Hey r/webdev, I've been delving into the decision-making process for a website project I'm working on for a hotel owner. They're keen on having a robust admin interface to manage various aspects of the site, including a gallery, blog, events, emails, and payments. While I've done my fair share of research, I'm still grappling with the decision between using Django for its powerful admin capabilities or exploring the possibility of using an open-source headless CMS like Strapi or Payload to streamline content management and integration with a Next.js frontend. Despite my efforts, I find myself ..read more

Hi folks I want to build appointment scheduling into an app I’m working on (api backend with a spa frontend), but this isn’t something I have done before. Anyone know any good resources on how to go about building something like that from scratch? Any language is fine as long as the solution is described and explained well. I’m after something that covers the frontend (something like this: https://dribbble.com/shots/23987731-Calendar-UI) as well as the necessary backend. For example I struggle to find a solution on how to draw the appointment box in the exact right spot in the calendar day co ..read more

I want to set up a website and i also want to upload large amount of images and same amount of tuples on database. If these kinds of data is not going to frequently inserted to server, what is best way to set up a website or which hosting service is best option?

Hello, Idris here!.
