Well, it’s nearly 1 am, and I just finished posting my first project to GitHub. I have a lot of potential code that I could pull from to start adding more projects to GitHub, but I’ve only recently learned how to work the software. Alright, so first project posted, it’s still a work in progress, but I wrote all of the code for this application today. The weirdest part, I wasn’t using android studio or java. I was using javascript, which I’ve only touched for the first time a week ago.
Earlier, I had this feeling that I should continue with the web development course I’m taking on Udemy.com. So, I followed the feeling, jumped on and started the next video. When out of nowhere, I was like “well, if I use what he just explained. I could start doing some of the basic logic for a blackjack game.” All though, I’m going to give myself a lot of credit, because I was pulling from a lot more than a couple lines of basic javascript, the instructor was teaching.
I was using similar code, I had used previously with Java. The entire time I was coding, I kept feeling surprised when the code would work. It was like, each problem or bug I encountered didn’t discourage me from continuing. The problem of hitting a barrier, then stopping, has plagued me in the past. Regardless, I didn’t stop. I kept going, and even though it’s still early, I feel proud that I made so much progress in a completely new language.
The project I’m working on is blackjack, which I always play when I go to the casino. I’ve always thought it would be cool to build out, all of the casino style games, and play around with them. Only now do I believe I will actually get there. Anyways, I made some decent progress today, and I have to say I’m a huge fan of javascript now.
