My Daily Development Learnings

Jul 1, 2022 | Blockchain

Welcome to my daily programming diary! Here, I’ll share some important commands and code snippets across different programming domains that I, and many like me, continuously learn to enhance our developing lives. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced developer, there is something for everyone!

Table of Contents

Git

Git is a vital tool for version control. Below are some key commands to manage your repositories efficiently:

  • Configure Git: Learn how to set up your user name and email in your config.
  • Branching:
    • Create a new branch: git branch
    • Delete a branch: git branch -d
    • Switch to a previous branch: git checkout -
  • Add, Commit, Amend: Use git add, git commit, and git amend effectively.

JavaScript

JavaScript is essential for web development. Here are some concepts to grasp:

  • Hoisting: In JavaScript, variables and functions are moved to the top of their containing scope during compilation. Think of it like organizing your books on a shelf before letting anyone borrow them.
  • Closures: A closure is a function that retains access to its lexical scope, even when the function is executed outside that scope. Imagine it like a backpack that carries everything you need even when you’re outside.

JavaScript Hoisting Analogy

Imagine preparing for a school play. Before the curtains open, the director (JavaScript engine) arranges everything on stage. Every actor and prop is lined up in order of appearance (variables and functions), ready to go. This preparation allows the actors to jump in, even if they’re called later in the script—just like hoisted variables can be used before they’ve been declared in the code. Remember, if you don’t put everything in its place, chaos may ensue when the performance starts!

Vue

Vue.js is a progressive framework for building user interfaces. Understanding its core concepts will enable you to create dynamic web applications.

React

React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It lets you compose complex UIs from small and isolated pieces of code called “components.”

Node.js

Node.js allows you to run JavaScript on the server side. It’s perfect for building scalable network applications.

Angular

Angular is a platform for building mobile and desktop web applications. Its powerful features facilitate the development of rich client-side applications.

Gulp

Gulp is a toolkit that helps automate painful or time-consuming tasks in your development workflow, such as minification, concatenation, and more.

Unit Testing

Unit testing is an essential part of software development that helps ensure your code works as expected. Using testing frameworks like Mocha, you can write tests to validate your code’s behavior.

Docker

Docker is a platform designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers. Here’s how to get started:

  • Install Docker (latest or a specific version).
  • Run Docker as a daemon.
  • Remove all containers and images when needed.
  • Run an image and check its logs.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you encounter issues along the learning curve, remember that coding is not just about getting it right the first time; it’s about understanding. Here are some common troubleshooting tips:

  • Check if your code syntax is correct.
  • Ensure that all dependencies are properly installed and up-to-date.
  • Consult online resources or communities for solutions.
  • Debug your code by using console.log() statements to trace where things go wrong.
