An interesting tool I encountered in preparation for Bootcamp
This topic is a big one for me, I encountered a lot of tools while preparing for boot camp as the internet is filled with resources.
The major technology I got introduced to while preparing for Bootcamp is JavaScript. I realized that JavaScript has a lot of built-in methods, there are complexities to it.
Google defines JavaScript as a prototype-based, multi-paradigm, dynamic language, supporting object-oriented, imperative, and declarative (e.g. functional programming styles)
Although, I still consider myself new to the language I find it fascinating because it can be as either a client and server-side language.
Being more familiar with J query made it not so easy to get started with JavaScript, learning from different materials helped. Node JavaScript is an asynchronous event driven JavaScript run-time language.
I was also introduced to Git and Pivotal Tracker.
Pivotal Tracker is an agile project management system that helps with keeping track of your progress on a particular project most especially when working in a group.
Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Using Git was quite complicated because it is a tool I have not had the opportunity of working with. But learning online and peer influence helped scale the difficulty.
