Input needed! In march I am going to be doing video with a career coach titled "How to level up from junior to senior software developer".

What are some burning questions that you have that we can talk about? (Please heart any replies you agree with)

[Tomasz Łakomy @tlakomy]

Honest question:

If you don’t write tests for your code, why?

Are they too complicated to write, there isn’t enough time or is there something else?

#TypeScript tip for today:

`ReadonlyArray` will make an array only permit immutable operations.

[Tomek Sułkowski @sulco]

#JavaScript tip for today:

Assign a default value when destructuring – objects and arrays!

[Tomek Sułkowski @sulco]

#TypeScript tip for today:

`keyof` gets a union type of all properties of the given object – useful for defining params for sorting, filtering, etc.

[Tomek Sułkowski @sulco]

#JavaScript tip for today:

`console.assert` prints a message in the console if the given assertion is false

@stolinski @LevelUpTuts @discordapp @SlackHQ It's great, and, in my opinion, way better than Slack. We're at well over 10,000 members now and still going strong.

#TypeScript tip for today:

"Nullish coalescing operator" sounds intimidating, but it's simply a handy way of providing a fallback in case of `undefined` or `null` value.

[Tomek Sułkowski @sulco]

#TypeScript tip for today:

When having an object that you use to define keys for a later reference (e.g. translations), use `keyof typeof` to extract those keys into a type.

This way you will know in the rest of the code what your options are, and references will be typesafe.
