React Router experimentation… #CodeNewbie

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

I still have a few bits to do on this Nasa image app but I am moving onto the next project so here is the progress so far. #CodeNewbie #MumsThatCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

More progress with my weather app; this has definitely been one of the more fun projects. Needs some styling work but I am happy with the functionality so far! #Code

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Success! #CodeNewbie #MumsThatCode.

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

This morning I have been trying to work out how props and state move around the files of my React weather app.. this diagram has been very helpful, but now I need to write the code! #CodeNewbie

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

A productive code day; I started preparation for our upcoming React module and got a validation error to work! #CodeNewbie #MumsThatCode.

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

With the @ManchesterCodes backend module finished I am on a mission to complete my book library API project this weekend. Initial tests passing, next step is to introduce some validation! #CodeNewbie #MumsThatCode

@VeeCodes Breakfast efficiency taken too far

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 45: I woke up poorly so it has been a slow day but I have managed to absorb some information about the event loop and asynchronous functions in javascript ahead tomorrow’s session with @ManchesterCodes. #100DaysOfCode #MumsThatCode #CodeNewbie

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 42-44: Another information packed session with @ManchesterCodes on Thursday followed by two intense revision sessions solo - I understand more then I did on Tuesday, which might not be saying a lot but it feels good. #100DaysOfCode #Backend #MumsThatCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 39-41. I am sitting and coding; lots of information about SQL & HTTP requests to digest. I am trying to be patient while awaiting the ‘aha’ moment that makes sense of it all. #100DaysOfCode #MumsThatCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

I have been feeling strong beginner’s fear recently and it has been making it difficult to sit and code. Tonight on the course we begun a new module so my hopes for this week are to push through until I can relax into learning again. Day 37 of #100DaysOfCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Today I have learnt the importance of in CSS today after a frustrating half hour. Still making rookie mistakes but I will get there. So far, this is the state of my cruise ship GUI!

Day36? Of #100DaysOfCode #MumsThatCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 34 & 35: Last fundamental session yesterday with the fabulous @ManchesterCodes. Today I am pulling CSS information from the deep crevices of my mind to create a cruise ship GUI. #100DaysOfCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 33: Cruise ship project completed and tests isolated. I want to carry on to do the front end for this project, so that will be my next mission. #100DaysOfCode #MumsThatCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 32:
A day of muddling through, isolating my tests and scratching my head. I had to take a step away and focus on family this weekend so it felt good to sit with the code again today. #MumsWhoCode #100DaysOfCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 31: session with @ManchesterCodes tonight & some more progress on my cruise ship project. Tomorrow Elijah has a pyjamas day at nursery and I intend to add some beforeEach to my tests. #100DaysOfCode #CodeNewbie #MumsWhoCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 30: debugging as a group is a bit mad but it is good to start learning the communication skills needed to make it work! #100DaysOfCode #CodeNewbie #MumsThatCode

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

@VeeCodes I feel for you with this but you are doing a great job and in the end it will all be worth it

[Lydia @LydiaCodes2022]

Day 28 & 29:
Good progress made on my latest project to code a cruise ship these last two days, making the most of Elijah’s nursery day & amazing support from my partner.
