“So you think you know JavaScript” is the title of one of the JavaScript bibles available on the Internet and I think I know where the idea for the title of the book came from. This week I was working on my first major JavaScript application and I understood one thing: JavaScript is a powerful tool, and I know nothing about it.
I finished the “WTF Co ten front end” developer training. This is probably the most important event of this week. Well past the deadline, but inspired by many interesting threads. Thanks to the topics covered in the WTF front end developer training, I got deeper into CSS and JavaScript. I even tried to learn React.JS, but after three weeks I found that I still didn’t know enough about JavaScript.
This week I have my first IT Exam, then I have a lot of relaxation.
Instead of practice, the first classes were mostly held in the form of lectures. On the one hand, it can be said that theoretical introduction is always needed, but on the other hand, practice is much more effective when it comes to remembering than passive absorption of knowledge. So much for school, what about React?
How can I describe the first week of the React.Js course? No more stroking your head and telling you that learning to program is easy, simple, and fun. The time of hard plowing on the fallow has come. Nothing is easy, there is no time to play and the slogan “works for me” … does not work.
This week there was a real breakthrough in the way that I build an HTML website. Until now, I was learning the basics of HTML and CSS, and thus I was working like a dozen years ago. Editing index.html and style.css. By combining these two files, the browser generated the page. This is the past, now I create websites in a new way.
