The most quiet part of learning javascript from my winter notes

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 3 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

The learning angle is what sold me. I am curious whether javascript still feels good next month.

I am mostly here for the follow-up. I would love to see a follow-up after 9 weeks.

This has cozy competence written all over it. I would write it down before changing anything else.

Not wrong, but I think this underestimates how different people's constraints are.

This is adorable and oddly motivating. It sounds small, but the prototype matters.

I would push back gently on the javascript part. I would test it for 9 days before deciding.

Amazing how much difference one small change can make. This would have saved me a lot of trial and error.

This made me smile more than expected. It sounds small, but the tiny repair matters.
