Oh haaaaay 👋🏼 Took a couple of 'nice' photos today 😅 Been really enjoying learning more #go recently, using #exercism & #gophercises still and I've also made a couple of little contributions to #skillcamp but even though they were small, it's helping me gain confidence in contributing to community projects, which is quite a daunting idea (hence why I will never ask a question on SO 😥) . I've also been dabbling with the idea of redoing my website. I threw one together quite quickly on Gitlab but didn't put much effort into its asthetic... I've been developing a hatred for CSS so I tried to make something simple to begin with, just so some content was up! Would be a nice break from go, exploring more #VueJS !
2 posts in 1 day, why not! I'd like to share a resource with you! A friend & colleague started SkillCamp a while back and recently introduced me to it. Having showed me it again at the meetup today, I had the time to take a proper look and it's such a great idea! I've shared some of the site pages above rather than typing it all out in here but it's basically a community driven effort to help up your skills in development by working collaboratively. There are lots of great learning resources & courses online but most require you to work through exercises by yourself. SkillCamp encourages you to work on projects with others in the SkillCamp community, communicating via tickets in Gitlab & channels in Slack to work with people all around the world to build different applications. It's a positive, helpful environment that encourages you to ask questions and help others when you can 💪🏼 I'm going to put some time aside this week to see if I can complete any of the outstanding issues in the Gitlab projects 🤓😁👌🏼if you're interested in working on collaborative projects, I highly recommend signing up and maybe we can work together on something! 👩🏻💻 #skillcamp #collaboration #code #coding #devcommunity #developers #programming #gitlab #slack #dev
Finished my first #Gophercises challenge yesterday, then did one better and added tests for it 💪🏼 I used 'table tests' to format my test cases and it makes such nice, easily readable code! They're not the most thorough tests, but it was good practice for me and I even discovered some annoying bugs in the process (hence why test- driven is a good idea 😅) if you're interested in how to write some basic tests in #go and how table tests can work, I added the repo to my github 😄 I finished Exercise 2 of Gophercises today also, & that's on GitHub too (but with no tests, naughty). Will be working through the third one this Sunday at our first Southampton Code Club Meetup! 'Citing! 😊☺️ #go #golang #unittests #github #practice #learning #motivation #code #coding #programming #womenintech #webdevelopment
