JavaScript Just Started....

 JavaScript has been feared up until this point. 

Now imagine, running into script jots of javaScript in other programming commodity bags of goodies to allow features to help you shine beyond others and not understand what this snippet of code is actually doing. 
Now, the web browser tools, development tools in Inspect totally make sense! I have been waiting for this moment to understand how to be effective with reviewing websites and maintaining the websites I do have under the rug - and enjoy the start of this course so far. 

I am in a client-side scripting course with NWTC. I have been struggling with so many medical issues as of recently that getting the mentality and volition to do the work has been the most difficult thing I have ever done! I have done some extreme tasks in good and bad opportunities by just wanting the experience of how to maintain my life that going through these last couple of weeks has brought me to a point that I know I have to not take any Summer courses that affect my cumulative GPA. 

Remember to only take courses that you know you can pass, are ready for, and can commit to. That Cumulative GPA is so important for funding and program requirements!!

So, JavaScript is essentially like other programming languages because they are intended to work together. However, using JavaScript you are able to overwrite with authority what is revealed or used in certain code blocks that help with update and maintaining the website (for example). A couple of things I enjoyed were the resources provided in class - using MDN (Mozilla Developer Network) documentation. I very much enjoyed this part because I wanted to get into a course with documentation writing, a technical writing for computer programs and software to post online for any body to peruse and use with example and user-friendly language. The professional point about it, is if I am going to be a software developer, I need to know how to write this and that includes goals in patent writing which includes over 50 pages of code, which I want to include documentation writing. 

Other things I enjoyed so far (only two weeks into this course so far), is the material for it has gotten much improved. Color coding and the thinking on paper has improved. Big text, little text separations help us visually separate the concepts, tools, code and remember it. I would listen to podcasts anticipating and dreading this course about how difficult and undesirable it was - but how many people use it on the web! I timidly opened my book and so much relief brushed over me to see that it is a modern, hipster, book that I can carry in my purse and easily navigate the chapters.
