A structured way to learn JavaScript.

I came across a post on Twitter that I thought would be helpful to share with those who are struggling to find a structured way to learn Javascript on their own. Personally, I wish I had access to this information when I first started learning in January. However, I am grateful for my learning journey so far, as I have covered most topics, albeit in a less structured manner.

N/B: Not everyone learns in the same way; it's important to find what works for you. This is a guide, not a rulebook.

EASY

What is JavaScript and its role in web development?

Brief history and evolution of JavaScript.

Basic syntax and structure of JavaScript code.

Understanding variables, constants, and their declaration.

Data types: numbers, strings, boolean, and null/undefined.

Arithmetic, assignment, comparison, and logical operators.

Combining operators to create expressions.

Conditional statements (if, else if, else) for decision making.

Loops (for, while) for repetitive tasks. - Switch statements for multiple conditional cases.

MEDIUM

Defining functions, including parameters and return values.

Function scope, closures, and their practical applications.

Creating and manipulating arrays.

Working with objects, properties, and methods.

Iterating through arrays and objects.Understanding the Document Object Model (DOM).

Selecting and modifying HTML elements with JavaScript.Handling events (click, submit, etc.) with event listeners.

Using try-catch blocks to handle exceptions.

Common error types and debugging techniques.

HARD

Callback functions and their limitations.

Dealing with asynchronous operations, such as AJAX requests.

Promises for handling asynchronous operations.

Async/await for cleaner asynchronous code.

Arrow functions for concise function syntax.

Template literals for flexible string interpolation.

Destructuring for unpacking values from arrays and objects.

Spread/rest operators.

Design Patterns.

Writing unit tests with testing frameworks.

Code optimization techniques.

That's it I guess!

I am trying my best to drink more water, and this big water bottle with motivational quotes is helping me a lot! Is strange, but to look at it, and know the pacing is great.

About programming, as I have to hurry up with my studies in order to keep up with the new architecture squad, I am trying to figure out the best notebook to write, as I learn better by writing.

I am using the purple one to Java, programming logic, SQL and GIT-Github; the colorful to Typescript and Angular, and I am thinking of using the brown to Spring Framework (as it is a huge topic).

Yes, for whom was working with JSF, JSP, JQuery (it is better to say that I was struggling with JQuery... hated it), it is a big change to turn my mindset to this modern stack - I will deal less with legacy code.

I am accepting all possible tips regarding Angular and Spring Framework, if is there anyone working with it here ❤️

That's it! Have you all a great Wednesday 😘

⋆. how to find tech communities ⋆.ೃ࿔*:･

Having a good supportive community while learning can be super helpful! It's always nice to be able to find a group of individuals who are also going through the same thing you are. Here are some ways I have found communities in the tech sphere ヽ(◕ᴥ◕)ﾉ

Meetup Meetup creates possibilities to find and build local communities who share your interests! Here's an example of some groups I've joined:

Newsletters Newsletters are also a great way to get information about cool events/meetups happening in the tech space ☆.｡.:* I am personally subscribed to Lizzie, she posts about events happening in Sf and NY. (you don't actually have to subscribe to read her current and past posts, just hit the "no thanks" under the entry box)

Twitter Many companies or dev advocates/community builders who work at x company will post a ton about upcoming meetups hosted by them! So I highly recommend you find a company or community you'd like to be a part off and follow them on twitter (▰˘◡˘▰) here are some I follow: SFClimateWeek ReactMiamiConf DevsNDumps SeattleJS GirlCode PayPalDev RenderATL Postman AhmadAwais Whitep4nth3r Official_GDC LWJShow GitHubEducation WomenTechmakers hackclub hacktoberfest femtechconf cassidoo pwic_org lesbiantech OutInTech PrideinSTEM GoogleStudents CodeNewbies

Discord There are sooooo many amazing huge communities on discord for each community within tech, here are some I recommend: DesignBuddies: focus is on ux/ui designers, ux research, pm, graphic design LearnWLeon(100Devs): HUGE community of beginner to intermediate software devs. It's also a completely free bootcamp! DiscordDevs: discords server is a great place to learn about different discord features to better help you navigate other servers you join. You also can get 1on1 help with building discord bots which is such a fun thing to work on! My Server: I try really hard to curate a welcoming and helpful community. If you ever need any help with hw, projects, or even general tech career help we're all super down to help ʕっ•‿•ʔっ

I hope this helps ♡

i need examples of sites with dark mode themes that are cute and cozy! i've seen some that are very cool, but i want to figure out how to make a dark theme palette that feels like you're hugging your favorite plushie...

I'd love to have a toggle switch for dark mode that still fits my aesthetic on my neocities :)

Any examples?

unfortunately ah. chose to make this account at the. at the wrong time

college is fun but the crazy thing about disability is it disables you soooo im having much less fun than i would like to :/

double unfortunately i have very little free time and energy! i’m swamped! how’s a man supposed to learn how to code and post silly furry drawings in this economy! bah, humbug.

I'm homesick for arms that don't even want to hold me.

[codemerything]

idk if I’m overreaching here but ever since this post came up I’ve had so many questions, first question is HUH? What’s going on here? 2nd (reasonable questions starts here): To fully grasp what coding in assembly is, what do I need to know about computers? 3rd: what can you do with it? What can I build? What tasks can i ease? What can I solve with this? Mostly importantly, if someone was new to computers as a dev what would you recommend they understand or read first as it’ll smoothen their ride a bit as they begin exploring? I’ve heard you talk about bash scripts before, I’ve googled it and I know what it means and does but IRL or in your life how can I use it to automate tasks? What’s the best way to learn? I’m just genuinely curious and gathering opinions from people who’ve used it.

Feel free to ignore if it’s too much 😭 but also I want to start a series where I compile questions and answers that would be useful for someone in the codeblr comm and can be easily accessible like a repo for tech related opinions/answers, this being the first.

wrote my first "hello, world" in assembly today :]

i used to never ever think i was capable of programming in anything remotely close to machine code. the fact that now i have, and that i actually understand what is going on here, even in this simple code, is huge for me. i'm so proud of myself!!!

second brain

i saw this concept online where you can have a second brain for things your brain can't hold and I didn't think it was important till i started going deep into Javascript and i kept encountering, going back and forth with information, articles and resources. Just so much to read so I created a Second Brain - Basically an organized Notion Page where I can sort everything out in order and @codomars inspired me to add Notes to it so I can easily go back and read my notes to refresh my memory on concepts, topics or mechanisms I need to remember and I have the Notion app installed on my phone so I can always read or reach out to my other brain when I need it.

April 21, 2023 - Friday

Holiday in Brazil today, and I am using it to make a big review of the subjects of my Sunday exam.

I read so much about Java concepts, tools, frameworks and libraries, that I thought I would faint 😅 Oh! And also PostgreSQL, Swift, SQL and NoSQL... God! How can they include so many things in a single exam!

Well, there's no time to cry 🤣 Tomorrow I will continue my review early in the morning, go to the gym, study some more, and then relax a little in the afternoon.

My subjects tomorrow are: Python (Pandas and Numpy), Portuguese grammar, bank and national finance, and Math 😭

I have so much to do until Sunday, but it is OK, I will be fine🙏🏾

Wishing you all a great weekend!

Cute programming/coding project alert  (༎ຶ⌑༎ຶ)

Made my first proper React.js project

Wednesday 30th August 2023

After reminiscing over my old blog's name (froggiecoding) I decided to get up and start learning some React and made a to-do app! Also learnt how to use Netlify for the first time - wow, I know~!

I had fun, it's just like how Django was like but I think a bit simpler to understand! This is the bare basics but it's good I started from somewhere!

Was thinking of adding more to the site but the only think I want to do is add saving the items to local storage! Then I'm done and onto the next project!

Also double happy I started and finished the project in one sitting, only spent around 2.5 hours on it, just cause it's pretty basic! 😉🐸✨👍🏾

I have a little headcanon that G Corp Gregor just does this

[therian-database]

Hello there!

so, here's the deal:

I, a burnt out autistic highschooler, want to create an app for therians (as a therian myself).

Here's the basic features:

A database full of information on as many animals as possible (that can and will be updated!)

Blank templates for otherkins!

Each user has a profile- public or private- and can add theriotypes and notes about those theriotypes!

A journal feature where you can add pictures, drawings, and notes to a digital journal, similar to a glorified notes app lol- and you can make certain parts of your journal public or private!

Packs!

What are packs?

Have some word soup as an explanation: Basically if you want to create a pack to either make friends or add your friends, you can submit a pack request, where you explain why you want to make a pack and if you have specific people in mind to join, and I'm thinking that I don't want it to be like everyone has their own pack or whatever so that's why it has to be approved and stuff like I don't want too many different packs. Basically it's like a discord server or an amino thingy it's a big group chat and the pack creators can set up virtual events and send out pings like "hey! Join this zoom call if you wanna do some arts and crafts!!" Or smth like that

It's a database and a community!! If you would like to help out, please please please send an ask!! I would love all the support I can get!

P.S.

BE NICE AND DRINK WATER
