I have been bogged down this week and making very little progress on my Udacity work, to be honest. I still found a few good resources.
Good resources I found this week:
Device Screenshot Emulator allows you take screenshots of how your site looks on various devices. This has been especially handy when I want to place images of projects I’ve worked on into my Udacity resume project. It is so accurate, the function on my site that I could always get to work in emulation in Chrome, but not actually work on my iPhone, fails to work in this emulator.
JSHint allows you to paste a chunk of code into the screen, and will make suggestions about things you may have missed or done in a non-standard way. This helped me a lot when I was getting an obscure error in Chrome due to some missing brackets.
Non JavaScript resources:
HTMLFreeTemplateStuff a Tumblr of interesting HTML and CSS templates.
Fantastic list of art tutorials by Jonathan Rector check out his art.
This isn’t even a resource, but I really have been helped by using HabitRPG to motivate myself. Losing virtual hit points by failing to complete tasks has been compelling! It also motivates me get at least 5k steps a day (yes I know 10k would be better), spend more time in prayer, work on my biceps, and any other thing I set for myself as a task. And I get to ride a pink dragon and have a pet zombie octopus.
Now I get to check “Write a Blog Post” off my task list!
