After seven weeks of persistent time spent with Javascript, CSS, and HTML, I feel like I'm getting somewhere (slowly but surely). I would still count myself as a code newbie, but I'm finding that problem solving is less intimidating and even fun at times!
My accomplishments this week:
- added more functionality and design tweaks to my Mars web app (like temperature toggle and code for the NASA Mars images API)
- Git and Aptana setup on my netbook (lots of reading through Git and Ubuntu docs; command line progress)
- Git rebase, my nemesis, has been conquered
- added JavaScript updates to my Alexa skill (still in development)
- wrote a search-and-replace script to complete a Free Code Camp algorithm challenge
I don't feel like I have much results to show for the work I've done this week, but I did note in my coding log that my confidence in editing and writing JavaScript has been steadily rising. I spent a lot of time this week troubleshooting and overcoming issues and errors. Some of those even including programming problems encountered at work which I would not have been able to tackle a year ago!
