roll-DEEN (they/them)

The most discouraging part of learning dev is feeling super alone because no one who looks like you is talking about the problems you want to solve.

"Get a community" they said. "Reach out to other devs" they said meanwhile it's mostly white cis dudes talking about *cue bro voice* "how to dominate yr next interview!" and "how I made 5k+ a month after this bootcamp"😑😒

Object oriented programming makes waaAAAaayy more sense to me than any other stuff in js. Bby's own component library here I come! 💪🏾💪🏾 #100DaysOfCode #codingnewbies

Finally got my shadow DOM component to render with an event listener! 🙌🏾 #100DaysOfCode

@jh3yy @threejs_org @CodePen Siiiiiiqqqq🤓

Got it working! 🎉 Responsive scroll to reveal Nav w/ @threejs_org 👍 Learned about the CSS2DRenderer which gives a way to map DOM element positions based on scene objects 🤓 👉 codepen.io/jh3y/pen/NWbdm… via @CodePen

@telmo Pro....if nothing else to keep the habit since they're mandatory in CSS.

Imposter syndrome be damned! I'm def developing something of a blister on my index finger from using my mouse scroll wheel. 😂😂

Lo and behold! I know a lot more than I thought I did. Just gotta dig deeper for contexts that resonate. Thanks for the boost of confidence! 💪🏾💪🏾

Poking around @wesbos 30Days of JS & there's ~actually~ projects I'm interested in and useful drills.🤓 Not a single weather app, calculator, or over focus on number crunching in sight! A breath of fresh air for a more artsy dev! Bless you, sir!🙌🏾

If dev & design are about creating solutions, the lack of representation of marginalized communities makes me think that the problems of these communities face are not really addressed. #bummer #CodeNewbie #code

The state of JS just confirmed an observation: there so many white guys in dev! Where are all the black queer coders at?! @TheJSDev @MozDevNet @googledevs @msdev @WebDesignDev @thecodingtrain

I was today years old when I saw used variables in their inline css....🤯#100DaysOfCode @Mandy_Kerr @KevinJPowell @DevSimplified @thecodercoder Anyone care to explain? I haven't seen any examples of this🤔

Not me trynna get back into @Blender only for my computer crash every time I try to split a model into cells recursively! 😭 I think I need more juice but egpu's are so expensive! Waaaahhhh😫

Probably gonna do my bundling with @snowpack for the @threejs_org websites I'd like to be able to build in the future!

Today's practice: configuring webpack. s/o @fireship_dev for the one of the best tuts out there! #100DaysOfCode #codingnewbies

Did a bit more practice with project architecture, I think my general approach will be utility first scss hoisted into higher level BEM global classes/mixins. How do y'all like organize yr project files? @KevinJPowell @traversymedia @ResWebDes #100DaysOfCode

Today's practice: scalable project file architecture for a simple website using SCSS and web components in vanilla js. #100DaysOfCode #CodeNewbie #javascript

@traversymedia SVG dev! It's visual editor for custom svg's and it generates the code for you CSS Flexbox Cheatsheet! These two don't get enough love but they're a godsend for noobies 🙌🏾

What are some VS Code extensions that you couldn't live without?

All of Black Twitter tonight, ESPECIALLY Black Women:

@AnnaJMcDougall Being motivated to solve problems comes naturally. I like picking apart something I don't understand until I've figured it out.

Do you feel like coding comes naturally to you?
