Change your old methods for writing a JavaScript Code - Shorthand's for JavaScript Code

Simc Dev — Mon, 03 Nov 2025 06:47:20 +0000

1. Shorthand for if with multiple OR(||) conditions

if (car === 'audi' || car === 'BMW' || car === 'Tesla') {
    //code
}

In a traditional way, we used to write code in the above pattern. but instead of using multiple OR conditions we can simply use an array and includes. Check out the below example.

if (['audi', 'BMW', 'Tesla', 'grapes'].includes(car)) {
   //code
}

2. Shorthand for if with multiple And(&&) conditions

if(obj && obj.tele && obj.tele.stdcode) {
    console.log(obj.tele .stdcode)
}

Use optional chaining (?.) to replace this snippet.

console.log(obj?.tele?.stdcode);

3. Shorthand for checking null, undefined, and empty values of variable

if (name !== null || name !== undefined || name !== '') {
    let second = name;
}

The simple way to do it is...

const second = name || '';

4. Shorthand for switch case to select from multiple options

switch (number) {
  case 1:
     return 'Case one';
  case 2:
     return 'Case two';
  default:
     return;
}

Use a map/ object

const data = {
  1: 'Case one',
  2: 'Case two'
};
//Access it using
data[num]

5. Shorthand for functions for single line function

function example(value) {
  return 2 * value;
}

Use the arrow function

const example = (value) => 2 * value

6. Shorthand for conditionally calling functions

function height() {
    console.log('height');
}
function width() {
    console.log('width');
}
if(type === 'heigth') {
    height();
} else {
    width();
}

Simple way

(type === 'heigth' ? height : width)()

7. Shorthand for To set the default to a variable using if

if(amount === null) {
    amount = 0;
}
if(value === undefined) {
    value = 0;
}
console.log(amount); //0
console.log(value); //0

Just Write

console.log(amount || 0); //0
console.log(value || 0); //0

7 Best Visual Studio Code Tricks

Simc Dev — Tue, 28 Oct 2025 12:44:03 +0000

As a developer, he would like to code with VS Code editor. It's one of the most popular code editors. It has lots of advanced features and plugins that you can customize your VS Code. VS Code has the best themes to make your VS Code more beautiful for coding. As a senior developer, he must have to know some of the best VS Code tricks to make coding faster. Here, I've listed some of the best VS Code tricks that make your coding skills faster.

List of best VS Code Tricks
Select and Rename
Code Snippets
Multi Cursor Selection
Fast Scrolling
Add LogPoints
Select all events of a word
Go to File

Select and Rename

Shortcut Key:: Select + F2

In VS Code rename the functions and variables is a very irritating thing when you are coding for your project. VS Code has feature finds and replaces that is useful for rename. But F2 is also used for rename.

When I learned that F2 is a rename command. I used it for the whole project to rename the variable and functions. Simply select the word you want to change, and press F2 and then write the new correct word. It is one of the best tricks for VS Code.

Code Snippets As a developer, he knows snippets of VS Code for faster coding. When you are working with your project you often create a loop to repeat arrays, then you can create a snippet for it so you never have to type it again. It makes your work easier and faster. You can create snippets for your project and for programming and you can also find them on marketplaces.

I use snippets for common functions and variables which are repeat again and again. Use @category: "snippets" extension for search-only snippets, you can also define keywords after.

Let's see the basic example:
if error != null {
    return error;
}

Here I've listed some snippets
Scope:: It is a comma separator. To enable this snippet you need to use go.
Prefix:: It is one of the snippets.
Body:: You can write your code here.
Description:: A text description that completely understands the logic of coding.
I've also listed some best shortcuts for VS Code to make coding skills faster.

5 Tips on How To Create The Perfect Freelancer Profile.

Simc Dev — Tue, 17 Oct 2023 05:34:57 +0000

UpWork, Freelancer.com, People Per Hour, Guru.com, are all great freelance platforms you can use as a starting point for your freelance career. However, just registering an account and filling it up with some random text is not going to work out well for you.

If you’re serious about making a career as a freelancer, the first thing you need to do is create a complete and attractive freelancer profile.

So, here’s what you should include in your freelancer profile.

1. Use Your Real Name

Even though it’s common sense to use a real name when doing business, a lot of freelancers are still using fake names on their freelancer profiles.

2. Upload A Professional Photo

Don’t even think about using a selfie or a really weird close-up webcam photo as your profile picture. That’s a mistake most amateur freelancers make.

Get cleaned up. Dress well. And ask someone else to take your picture. Make sure not to give too much attention to the background. More importantly, SMILE!

3. Craft A Specific Headline

Your headline should describe your job title. So, try to be as specific as possible to make it easier for your client to understand what you do.
No, not like that.

This is not Twitter. Use a more professional headline

For example, if you’re skilled in writing eBooks then describe yourself as an “eBook Writer”, instead of just “Writer”. Or “WordPress Plugin Developer”, instead of “Web Developer”.

Narrow it down to a niche and you’ll have a better chance at getting discovered on a big platform like Upwork.

4. Write Your Bio In First-Person

Don’t describe yourself in the third person like you’re narrating a movie and avoid writing your freelancer profile as if it’s a page on a corporate website.

Describe Your Qualifications And Experience It’s best to include a sentence or two about your qualifications and experience in your bio. But, try not to brag too much. Don’t be like this guy.

Also, use the “Employment History,” “Education,” and the “Other Experiences” sections to add more personality to your profile.

4 Tips to Write Perfect PHP Code

Simc Dev — Mon, 16 Oct 2023 07:12:35 +0000

1. Code to interfaces, not implementations

Interfaces are an indispensable element of well-designed code, although they seem unnecessary for novice programmers.

When designing an application, an interface allows you to focus on the necessary functionality without going into details.

Initially, I did not use them because I did not see any use for them. Only relatively recently have I appreciated their gravity in the systems I design.

The most significant advantage of interfaces is the contract they define. As long as you rely solely on the interface (and don’t mention the implementing classes in any way), you can change the implementation details without affecting your application.

2. Avoid inheritance
This principle is directly related to the recommendation to use the interfaces I described above.

Inheriting and using abstract classes may seem tempting. We are naturally fit to find and apply patterns. We try to create shortcuts to temporarily facilitate our work.

However, I know from experience that it ends in problems later on. This is known as technological debt.

3. Type hint variables
Do you use doc-blocks to hint to the IDE about the variable type? If not, I recommend getting started. PHP is an interpretable language, the variable type may change during code execution.

While the PHP engine may not have problems with the code being executed, your code editor may not know what data the variable contains. Is it a User class object? Or maybe “false” or “null”.

With this knowledge, your IDE can help you catch simple errors that can happen frequently.

4. Adopt Command-Query Separation
This principle, coined by Bertrand Meyer, is beneficial for building class functions (or methods) or API endpoints.

Bertrand recommends that the function you create is always a command or a query, but never a command and a query at the same time.

A command is a function that modifies the state in any way (i.e. deleteUser, removeFile, sendEmail), while the query is a function that returns anything (i.e. findUser, getOwner, findAll, findOneBy).

Where is the reach?

How to Push an empty commit?

Simc Dev — Fri, 10 Mar 2023 13:30:49 +0000

Have you ever tried to push a commit to a Git branch without changing any files in order to re-run your integration process? If yes then you are at the right corner.

Create an empty commit

git commit --allow-empty -m “Message”

Problem

For continuous integration, we are using AWS CI/CD delivery pipelines which allow us to build, test and deploy applications on a single push to a specific git branch. It helps us to reduce the manual overhead of deploying code to the server and handle all the actions automatically.

But today I faced a problem where I needed to re-run my delivery pipeline of a branch without adding any extra space or changing any files in the repository, so I searched for the solution for a while and It turns out that Git is allowing us to push an empty commit without adding any staged files to the branch, by using one option --allow-empty during git commit.

Enough of the problem, let’s jump on to the solution

Pushing a commit with staged files

git add .

git commit -m "changes on app controller"

git push origin master

The above commands will add all unstaged files and add commit and push the code to the master branch, after that our delivery pipeline will be started.

Once the pipeline process fails or you need to run the process again, you will have to push something to the branch but as I mentioned earlier, we will not make any changes to the files, and even then, We will be able to commit the branch with this command.

Pushing empty commit

git commit --allow-empty -m "rerunning the delivery pipeline"

git push origin master

After the above commands, you can see that the commit has been pushed to your branch and the delivery pipeline will be started.

6. GIF Search

We all love using and creating GIFs but did you know you can incorporate the GIFs in your next app for free using GIPHY?

GIPHY is the largest GIF and sticker library in the world right now and using their official API you can leverage the vast collection to produce unique apps for free.

Using the search endpoints, users can get the most relevant GIFs based on their queries.

You also get access to analytics and other tools which will enable you to create a personalized user experience.

The most used feature, however, for me was the translate endpoint which converts words and phrases to the perfect GIF or Sticker. You can specify the weirdness level on a scale of 0–10.

Note that you have to provide proper attribution by displaying “Powered By GIPHY” wherever the API is utilized. These are the Best free APIs.

Below is a sample output of this API:

{
    data: GIF Object[]pagination:
    Pagination Objectmeta:
     Meta Object
}

7. Favourite Quotes API

You can use these quotes to show on the landing page of your website or on the splash screen of your app to produce a rich user experience.

You also get the ability to create and manage users and sessions via this API. However, there exists a rate limit of 30 requests in a 20-second interval per session. These are the Best free APIs.

This API also has endpoints to filter, vote, list, update, and delete quotes.

Below is the output for the Quote of the Day endpoint.

{
   "qotd_date":"2020-11-23T00:00:00.000+00:00",
   "quote":{
