Missed last couple of days - Day 19

03 Feb 2021

So have missed a few days since I had last updated so hence I have named this day 19 rather than what should be 21. All is not lost however as whilst I have been quiet due to other commitments I have also made some progress.

I managed to finish off the FCC ES6 module and now working through Regular Expressions. Hopefully this should be a nice easy module to get out of the way. I have also started on the QA cert on FCC and been looking at Unit testing using Chai on https://repl.it/. I don’t want to have to wait working through all of the modules before I can understand how to test the code that is being written. I think that is a key part of it all. I have done a fair bit of QA in my current and previous role - however writing the test themselves within JS for automated testing will be interesting.

I have also been having a play around with codewards and looking at completing a few Kata’s on there just to improve my own knowledge as I go and put what im learning in to practice.

What have I completed today :white_check_mark:

  • FCC ES6

What is next on the list :pencil2:

  • Finish FCC Regular Expressions
  • Finish FCC QA and testing with Chai

What have I been reading / watching? :books: :tv:

  • Grunt & Gulp - been reading up what they are all about - still a new function to me but look interesting.
  • RegEx - How to use RegEx to match particular strings and count the index of them.
