Progress
Codecademy: Learn JavaScript - reviewed previously completed lessons
22% complete
Reflection
After yesterday, I realized I needed more practice with the basic concepts because I was just regurgitating what was in the practice portions without actually comprehending what I was doing. I might start reading one of the JS books that I found in the hopes they go into more detail.

Codecademy: Learn CSS - Completed
Codecademy: Learn JavaScript - 11% complete

Got a crash course about CSS flexbox and grid layout properties. I definitely feel like practicing is the only way I’m going to memorize all the different properties, values, and what they all translate to in practice. It really is like learning a new language and having to memorize vocabulary. I’ll be curious to see if there are parts of coding that are similar to the periodic table, in the sense that you inadvertently learn about elements you see/use often, but you don’t have to memorize the whole table of elements because you’ll always have access to it.
Just beginning JavaScript. This is what I’m really here to dive into. I’m hoping I genuinely learn info and don’t just end up regurgitating what they tell me to do without internalizing anything. I think I might want to try to get into web development, so this is the first step to see if that is viable.
Codecademy is pretty fun.

Writing WoW addons is hard.
its hard and nobody understands
I have a square and I can move it and that's it. I got it stuck to my cursor because of case sensitive shenannery. I'm trying to figure out the logic to make an API call and store one particular returned value from that call and then manipulate that value. I'm pretty sure I can do this when I have some more sleep and time to sit in Shrine of Two Moons constantly reloading my f'ing UI.
