@productschool @achalaugom @beatsbydre Was this suggestion for Chrome on mobile or desktop? I never successfully logged on from multiple mobile browsers, including Chrome. I kept getting a black screen. Would appreciate suggestions for how to avoid this issue in the future.

@productschool @Disney Technical difficulties for anyone else? Mobile experience on Safari and Chrome both not working 😅

[Gee-Wey Y. @geewey]

@PosthumaCarl absolutely brilliant

@lichenxing @xsmugglerbearx @geddski Back to it. I did have an issue with 2-4. Ended up unregistering the service worker and "reloading the portal" 5x, and it worked!

Always a good reminder to use Feynman's learning-through-teaching method to check for understanding on a topic.

@lichenxing @xsmugglerbearx @geddski Ahh hopefully it was a good learning opportunity haha. Haven’t gotten that far yet so will look out! Appreciate the tip!

Upgrading a React project from 16.x.x to 18.0.0 was surprising easy! Thanks for the short video

@lichenxing @xsmugglerbearx @geddski Yes - I also went one step further and click the "See all registrations" link shown at the bottom. Then, I stopped and unregistered the service workers for https://t.co/Cvbv8VGWPD. Sample photo attached.

If things work, when you register Kolohe on 1-8, he will fly upwards!

[Gee-Wey Y. @geewey]

@lichenxing @xsmugglerbearx @geddski Figured out how to move forward. It didn’t seem like the service worker was downloading and activating when starting at Chapter 1-8, so I went back to the hook stage and followed all the steps. Service worker is now activated and running!

[Gee-Wey Y. @geewey]

@lichenxing @xsmugglerbearx @geddski Just had the same issue, thought it was something I did wrong. Unsuccessfully tried checking the network call to see if anything additional should be happening...

Came across the Flexbox Zombies game by @geddski. Good brush up on basics of Flexbox along with some positioning magic that I never had to touch. Highly recommend! https://t.co/GeCBPBVkDe
