day 139 — code 365

Solid day today.

We started with a difficult warm up — calculating Happy Numbers using JavaScript.

Then we moved onto TDD using Cucumber — a testing suite that incorporates a layer of natural English language into the testing.

Then we did a code along to create a parallax effect and a neat bubble generator in JavaScript. We actually ended up installing Bower and Yeoman, and scaffolded a web app using those tools too!

Then we worked through more interview questions as a group.

Then we installed Clojure (requiring us to install Java Development Kit), Light Table (a code editor optimised for Clojure), and played around with configuring everything correctly.

We’ve got a lot of homework for this weekend — our last proper homework weekend!

And we’ve got to work on our portfolios, resumes, and think about our final project.

Far out, feels tiring even just thinking about it.

Onwards!
