Your vibe coded website looks finished, But It's not.

Here are 20 things developers often forget before launch:

• Custom 404 page
• Unique meta title on every page
• Meta description on every page
• Clear CTA above the fold
• Complete favicon set
• robots.txt file
• sitemap.xml
• Open Graph image and metadata
• Descriptive alt text for every image
• Responsive mobile breakpoints
• Sticky mobile CTA where appropriate
• Loading and skeleton states
• Form validation and error states
• Thank-you or success page
• Privacy policy page
• Terms and conditions
• Cookie consent banner, where required
• Analytics and conversion tracking
• Real business contact details
• Compressed, optimized images

Pretty is easy. Shipping properly is the real skill. 🔖

📕Quick React Tip:

Don't subscribe to data that you don't render; it causes unnecessary rerenders. If it's only used in event handlers, read it there.

AI coding agents tend to get this wrong.

🚀 Beginner → Developer: What to Learn in 6 Months

Want to become job-ready but don't know where to start? Here's a practical 6-month roadmap for CSE students 👨‍💻🔥

🟢 Month 1: Programming Fundamentals
• Pick one language: C++, Java or Python
• Learn variables, loops, functions, OOP and basic problem solving

🟢 Month 2: DSA Fundamentals
• Arrays, strings, linked lists, stacks and queues
• Start solving problems regularly

🟡 Month 3: Advanced DSA
• Trees, graphs, heaps, recursion and dynamic programming
• Focus on understanding patterns instead of memorizing solutions

🟡 Month 4: Development
• Learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript
• Build 2-3 small projects

🟠 Month 5: Full-Stack Development
• Learn a frontend framework like React
• Learn backend, APIs and databases
• Build one complete project

🔴 Month 6: Placement Preparation
• Improve your resume and GitHub
• Practice DSA and aptitude
• Prepare CS fundamentals: DBMS, OS and Computer Networks
• Start applying for internships

💡 Don't try to master everything in 6 months. Focus on building strong fundamentals and real projects.

📌 Consistency matters more than completing a roadmap quickly.

📕Pro tip if you're using Postgres:

Set `application_name` in your app's DB connector/ORM/connection URL

This allows you to see human-readable service names for where queries + connections are coming from in pg_stat_activity/dashboards

Super useful to have configured!
