Training section is live
I'm pleased to announce that the new training section is officially live. I would like to thank my mentees for providing early feedback!
The training section currently contains some web development katas. These are small exercises that help you practice key skills required for developing web applications. Katas are non-framework-specific and will lead you into the various corners of the browser and NodeJS APIs. They may also make an interesting challenge for interviews. 😉
These exercises are not designed just to level you up, but to transport you into a parallel universe where things are done right, and done routinely without the need to think too deeply. The katas are not intended to fill your brain with information, but, rather, help you get your muscle memory up to speed. Of course, you will need to do your part, which is the whole point.
Most katas are currently related to the client-side, but over time, more katas will be released that pertain to server-side programming using NodeJS (especially skills necessary for performing SSR and backend-for-frontend services).
The katas are split into three levels:
- Essential
- Important
- Expert
The essential katas are used to train basic skills that are likely to be used on every frontend project. The important katas train you for skills that are useful in many situation, but are a bit more involved and may not necessarily be employed on every project. Expert katas train you for skills that are used rarely and cover some advanced higher-level topics (e.g., creating complex custom widgets).
I will try to stick to the schedule of releasing one or two of these each week, so do look forward to more.
I currently do not offer code review services, but do feel free to get in touch if you'd like to talk about your solution. In the long run, I will start providing code review as a paid service.
