Passionated about the internet and web design since young, Farida found the perfect way to pave her own path into #tech: learning how to #code 🚀 Today, she is a UX designer at @KolmeoHQ! Read her story 👉 bit.ly/308DWtt #learntocode

I’ve veered off the #100DaysofCode tarmac and have gone fully #OffRoad for many exciting life reasons, but most recently for the @GiTAustralia bootcamp held over the weekend! Such an empowering and jam-packed few days full of ladies that Kick Ass. I have endless gratitude <3

Our team won pitch night carried through by Mel's unwavering passion and won funding and support for her idea! It was love at first team-bonding exercise, literally leveraging existing structures to win the marshmallow challenge (yeah - I'm sure there’s a metaphor in there)

I've been chipping away on this project off and on for about a year (while learning React). Introducing: WhoCanUse, a tool that shows who really is affected by your colour combinations whocanuse.com/
WhoCanUse

WhoCanUse

A tool that brings attention and understanding to how color contrast can affect people with different visual impairments.

DAY 16-17: Accidental sabbatical engage - efforts this past week have been spent crafting a front end for an upcoming side project for an online publication (and a bit of hwhetting the palette). Detail on typesetting for web has been a priority! #100DaysOfCode #FewDaysOfHops

DAY 15: #react wormhole continues; achieved ~time travel~ using slice() to copy altered data, adding keys and referencing them to access every iteration of changed input. The see-saw of comprehension and complete confusion continues! Notes: bit.ly/2MP6JfY #100DaysOfCode

DAY 14: More #reactjs, finished this super impressive tic-tac-toe game! Discoveries include function components, immutability tactics, the 3rd language I've written a ternary operator in and how good are emojis. Notes: bit.ly/2MP6JfY #100DaysOfCode #TicTacSatanPeach

DAY 13: Getting on with #react. Always amazed and annoyed at the cyclical process of learning something v new - every day I crack open a deeper level of understanding from what I learnt(/thought I knew) a day before. Notes: bit.ly/2MP6JfY #100DaysOfCode #RabbitHoles

DAY 12: Simple one today, dug into my WP roots and developed some functionality using PHP to add a nickname for any employee and call it if it exists. Having such a significant break from #PHP #I #sorta #miss #u. Might revisit after my journey w #react & #rails! #100DaysOfCode

[1/4] Ok this is really funny, check this out. I was in the process of booking a flight via @OneTravel. Trying to make me book ASAP, they claimed: "38 people are looking at this flight". Whoa, 38 is a lot, I have to hurry up. But first I have to check how they came up with 38 >>

DAY 11: Read about components from a design system POV, resource of the day award: primer.style (points for #figma)! Also played with some #MDXjs and #storybookjs for some spicy isolated prototyping. Made a start on bbs first Tic-Tac-Toe game ❌⭕️ #100daysofcode

DAY 10! Dipping a single toe into the redux waters. Learnt about state trees, actions, dispatchers, reducers and the big conversation they’re all having to create a seemingly functional utopia of seen & heard components. #100daysofcode #react #redux #kindanicebutkindachaos

DAY 9: #componentsconf meetup on reusable web components, rendering and when using libraries can make you a worse dev. Thought about the culture of code, how we interact with it and the stories that it gives us/vice versa. Great night 🍻 #100DaysOfCode #React

DAY 8: Kick-starting my journey with React via glitch's vid series: glitch.com/culture/react-sta…. Learning file structure & the friendship btwn components, elements and props. From a UI & FE perspective I can see myself having a lot of fun with this! #100daysofcode #reactjs

DAY 7: Basic Algorithm Scripting on FCC done! Loops, slicing and multidimensional arrays, oh my. Was a good refresher on JS & how to think more machine (while keeping the code as human-friendly as possible). #100daysofcode #freecodecamp

DAY 6: Mutation algorithm exercise via FCC and learnt a bit more about .indexOf() through a method of sorting via string comparison. Read up a bit on Big-O Notation which is very WTF for me at this juncture, this helped: rob-bell.net/2009/06/a-begin… #100daysofcode #freecodecamp

DAY 5: 2 challenges on 'Basic algorithm scripting' on FCC. 2 more to go! Learnerings incl using .concat() instead of .push() for appending stuff to arrays and the Boolean() function to filter truthy/falsy values. bit.ly/2B1LRLQ #100daysofcode #freecodecamp #womenwhocode

DAY 4: Minimal brain RAM for the algorithm challenges so did a quick codewars kata. Reviewed an SEO report for a client and gave suggestions for better rankings & accessibility. Some FE work on my own app YoHomie. Codewars profile: codewars.com/users/farida/co… #100daysofcode #ruby

DAY 3: 4 more exercises on 'Basic Algorithm Scripting' on FreeCodeCamp. Made use of typeof, boolean primitives and .map() functions and got to brush through a bit of regex. Also amended my knowledge of .splice() and it's params! #100daysofcode #freecodecamp #vanillajs
