Location - Panama city.
Despite considering myself a Jr., which may or may not be accurate, I try doing front end stuff from scratch. My stuff would probably be prettier if I used a framework.

Self taught programmer, Psychology graduate; trying hard to break into the professional programming world. What I lack in experience I make up with a - semi stoic - enthusiasm. Besides English, I also speak Spanish and conversational German.
I do have a question. I'm using urllib.request instead of using requests to download normalize and I found conflicting information regarding if it was safe or not.
Finally, can I get feedback on my website. Gotta lose the fear.
Edit: for the life of me I can't find how to solve a full height div on mobile, specifically in Firefox. It happens regardless if I use 100vh or 100%. It seems that it can only be solved in JavaScript (which I'm still searching for a practical solution), tough, I would rather avoid a js solution.
The submit form zooms in on mobile (iOS). To avoid that the font size needs to be set at 16px.
He already mentioned that foreigners have shown interest in wanting to help but nothing has come out of it. We also have to keep in mind that it seems they don't have electricity.
What can be done?
Also, they are not the only ones with the same problem. How could we replicate it to other areas. Whether it be a kind of pay it forward system. I don't know. I'm just throwing ideas out there.
The way my mind interprets that stack is the database is hosted on firebase while the page is hosted on the server?
Edit: Thank you all for the explanation. I used to think firebase was used as a database. I didn't know one could host front end files there. It seems I still have a long ways to go :)
I see it as he is trying to reach out, but he is downvoted because why? What effects does a downvoted have on someone? I know I feel bad and I'm generally a person that says "eff it" to a lot of things. I would also like to believe people, especially here on HN, who are much smarter than myself, or so I would like to believe, have all read the same articles and comments I have over the years.
One doesn't need to engage if one does not want to, but where the hell is the humanity?
Sorry, the more I think about this the more upset I get.
