• Is $250 a month in disposable income livable for a family of 3?

  You'll be going into a tight budget time, so get a really good system in place. If you don't have that you love already, I recommend YNAB (youneedabudget.com). It's envelope based and is really good for planning ahead for irregular expenses and for "rolling with the punches" if something comes up. It works differently than traditional monthly budget, so take time to use all the resources to learn the system. ... Source: about 1 year ago

• LPT Request: What is your favorite life hack that has saved you money, time, or made your day-to-day activities easier?

  I also said in a comment below, I use YNAB to track my financial life. This strategy only works if you have enough confidence in your finances to know that if I gave you a card with 100k credit limit, you would never spend more on it than what you have in your bank and has been budgeted for. If not, I cannot overstate how important it is to get your budget in order beforehand. There’s zero money saved if you pay... Source: about 1 year ago

• Fund future vacations

  If you aren’t already giving every dollar you make a job, earning more money will only get you so far. Check out YNAB, read all the free content about learning to plan and budget. Source: about 1 year ago

• Tracking savings goals

  Track it by hand or in software. I started out with just a spreadsheet, but since then moved my whole budget to YNAB (youneedabudget.com), where you track all your individual savings goals as well as how your money will be used to cover regular (and irregular) expenses. Now the whole plan is in one place, and covers everything from how much is set aside for gardening supplies for this summer to the big... Source: about 1 year ago

• My grandfather passed away and left me 25k. I have next to no savings and I owe money on a couple credit cards and a car. Almost 40, how do I maximize this?

  Aside from all the other advice, get a subscription to YNAB (youneedabudget.com) and start using it religiously. It will help prevent any backsliding and will put you in a much better financial situation going forward. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to document your JavaScript package

  Thanks to JSDoc it's easy to write documentation that is coupled with your code and can be consumed by users in a variety of formats. When combined with a modern publishing flow like JSR, you can easily create comprehensive documentation for your package that not only fits within your workflow, but also integrates directly in the tools your users consume your package with.

• Deep Dive: Google Apps Script - Testing APIs and Automating Sheets

  Note: For simplicity, I will omit the JavaScript documentation, but for a production grade code you may want to add the documentation (see jsdoc.app website for more). - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Figma's Journey to TypeScript

  You may like JSDoc[1] if you just want some type-safety from the IDE without the compilation overhead. It’s done wonders when I’ve had to wrangle poorly commented legacy JavaScript codebases where most of the overhead is tracing what type the input parameters are. Personally, I’m impartial to TypeScript or JSDoc at this point. But I’d rather have either over plain JavaScript. [1] https://jsdoc.app/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Eloquent JavaScript 4th edition (2024)

  I wholeheartedly agree. At most, I introduce JSDoc[1] to newer developers as standardising how parameters and whatnot are commented at least gets you better documentation and _some_ safety without adding any TS knowledge overhead. [1] https://jsdoc.app/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Add typing to your Javascript code (without Typescript, kinda) ✍🏼

  The best way to do this, of course, is with JSDoc. But something I always found awkward about jsdoc is defining the object types in the same file. So, after a lot of reading, I found a way to combine JSDoc with declaration type files from Typescript. Let me give you an example:. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago
