Day 12 — 100 Days of Code

Today was a pretty productive day. I was able to finish the first book in the YDKJS series. Now I am reading through the Scope & Closures portion in my free time.

Beyond reading, I started doing exercises on this website that makes you do JavaScript challenges 20 times before moving onto the next topic. I found that, while it doesn’t help very much in applying these topics to real world scenarios, it does help in building muscle memory and memorization.

After doing about 60 exercises I decided to build a simple weight converter application. This project takes a weight in lbs and converts it to kg, oz, and grams. It was a pretty good project to practice some JavaScript and Bootstrap.
