I realized the only way to build on your knowledge and to truly understand what your learning is by actually doing something with the things your learning. I decided to create a new project everyday for the next 30 days and journal my growth from day 1 all the way to day 30. I'm currently enrolled with UTSA Web Development Bootcamp but if i want to stay ahead of the game, I have to do more than everyone is doing there.
My First Project : A To-Do List
I created a To-Do List that also saves and stores your information you have given. I was having a real rough time trying to connect my JavaScript with my HTML to insert user information and delete at the same time. But like my professor says, "You never stop learning as a Software Engineer. It's impossible to remember every little line of code, so everyone still looks up what they're looking for". So I looked up a little YouTube video and watched a YouTuber named GreatStack break down his process. I got to say, just putting the code into play myself already made me learn so much. For example, I had confusion about local storage. And also about connecting images to change in certain event listeners. Already on my first day, I learned so much more and strengthened my knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JS. My goal by Day 30 is to create a mock social media website with full front-end and back-end capabilities.
An screenshot of what I came up with :
I need to research more about InnerHTML because it's still not to clear for me.
I don't know if I'm supposed to post the code on here. I'll update the article with code when I found out.
