It’s been about 3 weeks since I last blogged. I put my head down and sprinted towards the finish line. I can’t say that I’m 100% done, yet, but I will be soon. I have completed my final portfolio project and have my assessment for it tomorrow. I must say, Redux threw me for one while working on this project. I hit many stumbling blocks building this project. I think my sprint was alittle ambitious and I ended up not knowing the Redux stuff as in depth as I wanted to.
So I’m banging away at my jQuery project. I got hung up on some code tonight but got it working right before I stopped for the night! I was stoked! So what was I stuck on? In my app a user can create as many places as they want. Each place can have as many items as they want. A user can look at a specific item and see the name of it, the rating they gave it, any notes they wrote about it and where the item is available (the places they’ve added it to).
I’ve been moving along as of late. Today I was able to knock out my Tic-Tac-Toe in jQuery project. Well, it’ll be done VERY soon. I paired with another student Henno who’s in a time zone 7 hours ahead of mine. I had just started and he was looking for a partner so while he read upon the project and had a bit I got the first three controller tests to pass.
So I’m pulling back from my daily blog unless I have code to write about. I can concentrate on school and extra 30 mins to an hour per day if I don’t write. Here’s something interesting I’m pondering and haven’t tested yet. I’m not really sure why I haven’t tested it but…
// To ensure JS is loaded after the page loads $(document).ready(function () { }) // Better way to do the same $(function () { }) // Does this work?
I’ve reached the 100 day mark. I have to say, I honestly thought I’d be done by now. I’m 82% of the way there. It’s going to be a mad dash to the end. I really, really, really don’t want to pay another full month’s tuition when I finish a few days into that billing cycle. So it’s pretty simple. I have to finish by June 27th. We’ll see what happens.
