life of an NYC software engineer coding a startup (payments edition)
🧠 Learn to code: scrimba.com/allcourses?aff=jacob
Welcome back to another day in the life of a software engineer in New York City! Today we're building a payments system to handle incoming + outgoing payments for one of my recent full stack applications. I'm also kicking off a new build for an upcoming project that sits alongside my soon-to-be-released Discord server ❤️

Jacob.... I've been hooked on your videos since I've found you on KZread. I've always been interested in web/software development but burnt myself out pretty bad and haven't touched it in 3 going on 4 years. I love that you mentioned no-code. I honestly think it is going to be the way for most people in the future with companies like Webflow, bubble, Flutterflow, etc. As long as you understand business logic the options are endless. Keep the videos coming!
I get so much motivation from your videos, it’s actually crazy
Loving the content man! Especially since you started content in NYC!
Great video! Also great frequency of video uploads, you are an animal! Keep it up dude!
Super stoked for 30k! Can't wait to see what you have planned
Great video! I am excited to see what this spring/summer brings for ya! Dude, that bagel in the beginning looked phenomenal.. xD
As always quality video from Jacob, big huggs from Poland
I love watching your videos bro keeps me motivated im still learning its been about a month and a bit now ive learned alot in that time and i love it hopefully in the future can land me a job im in no rush though shot for your positive energy bro chur chur ❤️😎

Buy a cheap kurig for the office and bring your own pods. Way better than instant coffee. Military doesn’t provide everything for us so sometimes we come together and chip in for QOL around the office.

I really like your videos. Can I ask which framework would you recommend to learn for a complete beginner in backend, Fastify or Nest?

Hey, curious what are you using for User Authentication? Firebase auth or any other third parties? Following along your video, you mentioned that you are using NestJs for backend. I checked its official documentation and has its own auth module, but, do you think that just relying on JWT is secure enough for production?

Hey Jacob, would you ever consider making a video or a dev talk about how to handle auth and persisting login/expiring login? I’m working on creating my first public site and I’m struggling to find good resources on standards and best practices on handling auth/login state

Hi Jacob, I'm a second-year computer science and engineering student. I love web development. As I was born in a very remote village i had very less access to computers and the Internet. I started coding in 2021, and I have learned many things since I started and constantly studying new things. I want to work as a full-stack developer in New York. I don't really have much idea on how to land a job as a full-stack developer in NY. Can you 🙏please make a video about the process required and guide me through it. It will be very helpful for me, and people like me. Really like your videos it's very knowledgeable. Thank you, brother.
Hi Jacob, what happened with Kiki, the other startup? So pumped you are working on your own projects full time now :)

Do you utilize TRPC or GraphQL generated types for both the frontend and backend to communicate with each other?

I see lots of people use next.js for backend as well. What is the advantage to still setup and manage nest.js?

Sure, there is no right or wrong. For subscription based model maybe not ideal. It mostly about convenience, but you give control to someone else.
