Hey, I need some help with Cookies and User auth. So what I have is a HTTP-Only cookie, which includes a token for user validation on the backend. Now if that cookie doesnt exists anymore, because the user has, for example, logged out, I want to refrain from making an API call to check for the token, to minimize API-calls. Is that possible, as i cant check if the token exists on the frontend? If yes, what would be the approach?
Solution:
Don't prematurely optimize. Since you're using http only cookies, the only way for you to know whether a user is authenticated is by making a request

I am so confused right now, HTTP-Only cookies cant be edited through Javascript right, but for example I've got this extension on google that can delete the cookies? 🤔
even though also the "HTTP-Only" flag is checked...
Solution:
you basically having the extension allow this type of access to specific domains

If you had to recommend a resource to learn JavaScript to someone who has no base in programming, which book/course/resource would you suggest?

This is gonna be a really dumb question I should know the answer to.
I’m building a localization library. I have a big list of locale data that I only need to load a portion of each time. I dont want my end users to need any additional setup.
Is there a way for a static website to like “lazy load” the extra locale data when they’re needed only? So when someone visits the static page they only get
en, but if something for fr is used, it “fetches” that data somehow? I’d like to not require additional fetches to other endpoints, but CDN is likely fine I suppose....snowberb – 08-55 Jul 4
