My plan for this quarter is to become as comfortable as I can with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. So much has changed and evolved since I learned them in college almost 20 years ago!
My goal for the year is to become proficient with advanced JavaScript and React.
Day 2 of #100daysofblogging:
- Read: Thinking in React in the official React docs
- Reading: This I Know by Terry O’Reilly
- Wrote another blog post!
I saw my RMT this morning before spending a few hours reading. I spent most of December at home between sciatic pain, family visits, the holidays, and almost two feet of snow, and then frigid cold temperatures resulting in a lot of ice (and hibernation at home)!
Something that clicked today:
If you can’t find a component where it makes sense to own the state, create a new component simply for holding the state and add it somewhere in the hierarchy above the common owner component.
–Thinking in React
I haven’t looked at React since October/November. One thing I have been happy to realize is that I understand React and just need to sit down and make something with it. That isn’t supposed to happen until next month. But I have a feeling I will be re-visiting React sooner than I had planned!
