100 Days of Coding Challenge | Learning ReactJS

I’ve been trying to review front end dev and teach myself react for a little more than a month.  It’s not easy staying consistent.   We need something to keep us accountable when trying to achieve a goal; so to start the year off I committed to the 100days of code challenge.  That means I’ll commit to coding for 1 hour every day for 100 days (that’s besides what I do at work which is not front end development related anyway).

Coding Goals

It’s recommended in the challenge docs to plan out your goals.  I made a rough list of what hope to achieve in the 100 days.

Goals for the 100 days:

  • Review JavaScript and create projects in vanillaJS
  • Learn ReactJS and code projects in reactJS
  • Final Goal – create a DBA admin dashboard website in React

100 days sounds like a long time and it kind of is, that’s over 3 months of extra coding every day! The Original challenge uses twitter to post daily status updates, but since I don’t use “the twitters”, I’ll be posting my updates on Instagram using #100daysofcode. You can read all about the challenge here

You can follow my challenge updates on my Instagram

I’ll also try to do some weekly summaries on a blog post.  My Git Hub repo in case anyone wants to take a look at the projects I’ve coded.

Resources

Some resources I’ll be using:

Since I know the basics I’m planning to skip over the basic JS syntax and datatype exercises.
