Move Web Construction to Code tab

Web construction is code as are its subforums, it belongs in the code section. It is evident this is the case because there is a server-side JS section in `Code` that includes NodeJS but there is also a section that includes Node in the Web section.

I think it's good where it is right now.
Because it's majorly about websites, however I do get your point of NodeJS.

But if you look at that section, you'll see a bunch of JS questions, barely NodeJS.

So it'd be a wrong move to move it to Code, but also a wrong move to create a new subforum for NodeJS only (since there aren't many threads about it)
I think the section fits topics other than just coding websites, like which hosting is best, site ideas etc..
I see your point, not sure why there are two Node.js sections lol.

Imo, it should be like this in the coding section:

Forum: Javascript / Ajax:
- Sub-forum: Front-end Frameworks/Libraries (JQuery, React, Angular, etc)
- Sub-forum: Server-side JS (Node.js, Express, NPM Packages)

I think Javascript has evolved to the point where it deserves it's own forum in the Code section.

I absolutely agree with this, a javascript section inside Code would be great
Websites run on code. A full stack web developer is a programmer, it should be in coding.

Using CMS is using code. Moving a CMS section to a coding section influences people to 'hack' around with CMS, imo.

Using a CMS itself has nothing to do with coding. But writing plugins for CMS or developing on top of a CMS is coding, or actually contributing to the development of CMS.

Even just a link to the web construction forum from coding tab would be fine imo... I really wish that section could get a renovation so to speak, if we had a general area to discuss website development I feel it would be pretty active, and also a link to the proper section of the marketplace where you can purchase or sell website development services.


Just my take on it, I know there is a lot of knowledge on here regarding web development.

Nowadays? I'm just here for the nostalgia.
Really not a lot of reasons to change how it is.
