Worked on constructing the layout for the Admin Dashboard project. I couldn’t finish it because I enjoyed my weekend LOL. Sometimes you need to take a break. I don’t plan my breaks. I just let them happen since I am naturally a work-a-holic. If I feel like I need a slow day it was probably long overdue.

TLDR;

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

• JavaScript -> Started working through The Odin Project JavaScript material from the Full Stack course. I will be interested to see how many of my own knowledge gaps I can find. I am still insecure with my programming skills. I just have to keep attacking my insecurities to prove myself to myself LOL. Eventually I will have become “that guy”.
• Practice -> Continued working on the Admin Dashboard project. It is really easy working off of your own design doc. I will likely finish tomorrow.

Should you use webpack for only Sass

I looked into whether it made sense to use webpack to use Sass in my Admin Dashboard project. It seemed like a waste based on the Stack Overflow answers I read. I just used the global installation of the sass package with npm and then ran the compiler using the --watch flag.

npm install -g sass

sass --watch main.scss main.css

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.
