My first lesson: The joy of JavaScript

November 9, 2018
Judith has started an apprenticeship at Peerigon in 2018 to become a professional web developer. As part of her weekly routine, she publishes a blog post each week about what she has been doing and what she has learned.

Half a year ago, I decided to finally take the step and become a proper web developer.

I worked hard and took every lesson I could get my hands on: HTML, CSS, Ruby on Rails, and quite a bit of JavaScript as well…

…To finally become a trainee at a mighty JavaScript corporation.

Where do you start if you want to build apps, but don’t know why things work sometimes and sometimes they don’t? Get back to basic syntax and gain a deeper level of understanding.

Some of the concepts were quite new to me, but it wasn’t that hard, after all.

…Piece of cake, really.
