Day 25: Done With The Etch-A-Sketch

Finished working on the Etch-A-Sketch project. I actual styled this one LOL. So it’s progress. So far it’s still a tough week. I hope the weekend will be better. Just been really busy so I haven’t been able to put my all into studying extra for the challenge. Just doing the bare minimum 1 hour.

TLDR;

Okay, so here are the highlights of what I did:

  • Practice -> Finished building out the required features of the Etch-a-Sketch project in “The Odin Project” curriculum. Here is the GitHub Repo for those that want to follow along. I added the random color mode button. It required me to add a state object for the game. State management seems to be really important for building games. I guess that’s why we always had memory cards and internal memory for game systems LOL.


Goal For Round 7 of the #100DaysofCode Challenge

This is my seventh round of the “#100daysofcode” challenge. I will be continuing my work from round five and round six into round seven. I am currently working through the book “Cracking the Coding Interview” by Gayle Laakmann McDowell. My goal is to become more familiar with algorithms and data structures. This goal was derived from my goal to better understand operating systems and key programs that I use in the terminal regularly e.g. Git. This goal was in turn derived from my desire to better understand the fundamental tools used for coding outside of popular GUIs. This in turn was derived from my desire to be a better back-end developer.

I have no idea if my path is correct but I am walking down this road anyways. Worst case scenario I learn a whole bunch of stuff that will help me out on my own personal projects.
