It has been a while since I have updated the blog! I have found I am somewhat coding less and trying to learn more unintentionally.
In terms of projects, I am still doing the same things where I am trying to work through the freecodecamp certfications as well as trying to complete the toggle action on my pricing project (which has been neglected!).
Granted for good reason. I have been a bit sidetracked with coding tests/interviews which are challenging but challenges that I am able to learn from.
During one test I learnt about optional chaining which was very interesting to look into and I didn’t really know existed!
In addition to this I have also been looking into Regular expressions which was even helpful for one of the coding tests I was doing.
The biggest takeaway I have from doing the coding tests is that sometimes you’ll really have to go out of the box of what you know to solve a problem because sometimes you just won’t know about this particular method or concept!
After all the tests and having two days off of no coding I am ready to jump back into code and tackle this toggle once and for all.
Specifically today I will be working on :
- Fixing my toggle button on my pricing project
- Finishing the freecodecamp Regular Expressions course
- Potentially starting another course on there.
Updates:
The Toggle on my pricing component project was something I was really struggling with for days but sometimes taking time away from something and coming back to it with a fresh mind makes all the difference! I was able to solve the toggle issue in 20 minutes! Had I not pushed I wouldn’t have been able to figure it out!
