John has been programming for 9 years and works for Promosis, Inc. a company that develops and designs sweepstakes programs and other marketing tools. After leaving jQuery, John wrote a detailed tutorial comparing Vue and React. He felt that there weren’t enough tutorials available that show the issues developers face while coding in real time. With this tutorial he wanted to go through all the challenges a developer can face while learning a new framework from scratch. Comparing his favorite and least favorite parts using React, he mentions he didn’t “fall in love with it” enough to leave Vue. John then compares his experiences with Create React App and Vue CLI and talks about his most recent project, Best Meta which helps pick the most popular items on Amazon. John also talks briefly about his experiences using Vuex and Redux. Writing the detailed comparison tutorial helped John sharpen his JavaScript skills but he reveals that, at the end of the day, he will use Vue for his next project.

Panel: Charles Max Wood Guest: Benjamin Hong This week on My JavaScript Story, Charles speaks with Benjamin Hong who is a Senior UI Developer at Politico where he lives in the Washington, D.C. area. He has worked with other companies including Treehouse, Element 84, and Udacity. Charles and Benjamin talk about his past and current projects, and how it’s different working for the government vs. working for a business. Check it out! In particular, we dive pretty deep on: 1:06 – Chuck: Tell us a brief introduction, please. 1:23 – Ben: I am a lead frontend developer at Politico. 1:43 – Chuck: It’s an area that can affect everyone. How did you get into developing? 1:52: Ben: I had everything you can think of to develop at first. 2:10 – Chuck: For me it was a TI90 calculator! 2:18 – Chuck: Was it somebody or something that pushed you towards this area? 2:32 – Ben: I wanted to change something with the theme, Googled it, and it went from there, and the Marquis Tag. 2:51 – Chuck: And the Blink Tag! The goodies. So you got the he HTML book – and what website did you build that was your first big project? 3:07 – Ben: It was fiddling around, but it was fortune cookie universe. 3:20 – Chuck: You will have to recreate it! 3:27 – Ben: I think this was 1993/1995 timeframe. 3:40 – Chuck: Yep, me too same time frame. If you had something move on your website it was so cool. You went to building... 4:02 – Ben: JavaScript was a roadblock for me. There was nobody to correct me. I had a JavaScript book and it was a massive failure. 4:33 – Chuck: You took a break and you came back? 4:40 – Ben: Oh – people will PAY you to do this?! 4:54 – Chuck: Did you go to college? 5:01 – Ben: Yes, I have a Master’s in a different field. I was always a tech junkie. I just wanted to put things together. 5:20 – Chuck: Take us through your journey through JS? 5:30 – Ben: I started off with the jQuery piece of it. I needed Java, and it took me awhile to wrap my head around it at first. Through the trial and process of trying to get into Angular and React, too. 6:19 – Chuck: Did you play with Backbone, Knockout, or Ember? 6:32 – Ben: I did do SOME Ember and some Knockout. Those were my first interactions. 6:49 – Chuck: What got you into the profession? How did you get from your Master’s to being a tech guy? 7:14 – Ben: From the Master’s field I learned a lot about human experience, and anted to breed the two together. Also, consulting and helping to build things, too. 7:44 – Charles: What was the career change like? 7:53 – Ben: I went to the federal government at first around the recession – it was good having a stable job. I was bored, though. While I was working for the government I was trying to get my foot in the door. From there I have been building my way up. 8:30 – Ben: I was working on Medicare.gov and then later... 8:46 – Charles: We won’t use the word “disaster”! What is it like to work for the government? 9:20 – Ben: Yep. The federal government is a different area because they are stake holders. They were about WHO owned the content, and who do we have to talk to get something approved. It was not product oriented like a business. I made my transition to Politico, because I wanted to find solutions and diversify the problems I was having. 10:31 – Chuck: Have you been there from the beginning? 10:39 – Ben answers the question. Ben: They were looking for frontend developers 10:54 – Chuck: You are the lead there now. What was that like with the transition? 11:08 – Ben talks about the beginnings stages of his time with Politico and the current situation. He talks about the different problems, challenges, and etc. 11:36 – Chuck: Do you consider yourself a news organization or? 11:47 – Ben: We have Politico Pro, too. I have been working with this site more so. There are updates about campaign and voting data. People will pay a fee. 12:25 – Chuck: Do they pain themselves as leaning one way or another or nonpartisan? 12:38 – Ben: We are objective and nonpartisan. 12:51 – Chuck: I know, I was hesitant to ask. What’s the mission of the company and into what you do? 13:09 – Ben: The projects get dumped to us and we are about solving the problems. What is the best route for solving it? I had to help pioneer the new framework into the tech staff is one of my roles. 13:48 – Chuck: What’s your tech stack? 13:55 – Ben: JavaScript and Vue.js. We are experimenting with other software, too. 14:16 – Chuck: We should get you talking about Vue on the other show! Are you working at home? 14:32 – Ben answers the question. Ben: One thing I am helping with Meetup. Community outreach is important and I’m apart of that. 15:09 – Chuck: Yep, it’s interesting to see various fields into the tech world. I am not one of those liberal arts majors, I do have a computer science degree. It’s interesting to see the different perspectives. How little it is for someone to be able to dive-in right away. What are you working on? 16:09 – Ben: Meetup population and helping with the work at Politico. 16:27 – Chuck: Reusable components. Are those opensource or only internal? 16:41 – Ben: They are now opensource but we are seeing which portions can be opensource or not. 17:01 – Chuck: Different companies have come out and offered their opensource. Where do they find you? 17:20 – BenCodeZen! They are more than welcome to message me. 17:36 – Chuck: Any advice on newbies to this field? 17:46 – Ben: Attending those meetings and making those connections. 18:18 – Chuck: I have been writing a book on HOW to get a job as a coder.

So you got the he HTML book – and what website did you build that was your first big project? 3:07 – Ben: It was fiddling around, but it was fortune cookie universe. 3:20 – Chuck: You will have to recreate it! 3:27 – Ben: I think this was 1993/1995 timeframe. 3:40 – Chuck: Yep, me too same time frame. If you had something move on your website it was so cool. You went to building... 4:02 – Ben: JavaScript was a roadblock for me. There was nobody to correct me. I had a JavaScript book and it was a massive failure. 4:33 – Chuck: You took a break and you came back? 4:40 – Ben: Oh – people will PAY you to do this?! 4:54 – Chuck: Did you go to college? 5:01 – Ben: Yes, I have a Master’s in a different field. I was always a tech junkie. I just wanted to put things together. 5:20 – Chuck: Take us through your journey through JS? 5:30 – Ben: I started off with the jQuery piece of it. I needed Java, and it took me awhile to wrap my head around it at first. Through the trial and process of trying to get into Angular and React, too. 6:19 – Chuck: Did you play with Backbone, Knockout, or Ember? 6:32 – Ben: I did do SOME Ember and some Knockout. Those were my first interactions. 6:49 – Chuck: What got you into the profession? How did you get from your Master’s to being a tech guy? 7:14 – Ben: From the Master’s field I learned a lot about human experience, and anted to breed the two together. Also, consulting and helping to build things, too. 7:44 – Charles: What was the career change like? 7:53 – Ben: I went to the federal government at first around the recession – it was good having a stable job. I was bored, though. While I was working for the government I was trying to get my foot in the door. From there I have been building my way up. 8:30 – Ben: I was working on Medicare.gov and then later... 8:46 – Charles: We won’t use the word “disaster”! What is it like to work for the government? 9:20 – Ben: Yep. The federal government is a different area because they are stake holders. They were about WHO owned the content, and who do we have to talk to get something approved. It was not product oriented like a business. I made my transition to Politico, because I wanted to find solutions and diversify the problems I was having. 10:31 – Chuck: Have you been there from the beginning? 10:39 – Ben answers the question. Ben: They were looking for frontend developers 10:54 – Chuck: You are the lead there now. What was that like with the transition? 11:08 – Ben talks about the beginnings stages of his time with Politico and the current situation. He talks about the different problems, challenges, and etc. 11:36 – Chuck: Do you consider yourself a news organization or? 11:47 – Ben: We have Politico Pro, too. I have been working with this site more so. There are updates about campaign and voting data. People will pay a fee. 12:25 – Chuck: Do they pain themselves as leaning one way or another or nonpartisan? 12:38 – Ben: We are objective and nonpartisan. 12:51 – Chuck: I know, I was hesitant to ask. What’s the mission of the company and into what you do? 13:09 – Ben: The projects get dumped to us and we are about solving the problems. What is the best route for solving it? I had to help pioneer the new framework into the tech staff is one of my roles. 13:48 – Chuck: What’s your tech stack? 13:55 – Ben: JavaScript and Vue.js. We are experimenting with other software, too. 14:16 – Chuck: We should get you talking about Vue on the other show! Are you working at home? 14:32 – Ben answers the question. Ben: One thing I am helping with Meetup. Community outreach is important and I’m apart of that. 15:09 – Chuck: Yep, it’s interesting to see various fields into the tech world. I am not one of those liberal arts majors, I do have a computer science degree. It’s interesting to see the different perspectives. How little it is for someone to be able to dive-in right away. What are you working on? 16:09 – Ben: Meetup population and helping with the work at Politico. 16:27 – Chuck: Reusable components. Are those opensource or only internal? 16:41 – Ben: They are now opensource but we are seeing which portions can be opensource or not. 17:01 – Chuck: Different companies have come out and offered their opensource. Where do they find you? 17:20 – BenCodeZen! They are more than welcome to message me. 17:36 – Chuck: Any advice on newbies to this field? 17:46 – Ben: Attending those meetings and making those connections. 18:18 – Chuck: I have been writing a book on HOW to get a job as a coder.

Panel: Divya Sasidharan Charles Max Wood Joe Eames Chris Fritz Erik Hanchett John Papa Special Guest: No Guest(s) In this episode, the panel talks amongst themselves on the topic: how does one contribute to opensource work? They discuss their various ways that they contribute, such as speaking at conferences, recording videos for YouTube, podcasting, among others. Check-out today’s episode to get some insight and inspiration of how YOU can contribute to YOUR community! Show Topics: 1:31 – Erik: Contributing to opensource – and being a good resource for the community. Contributing and still making a living. If people want to make this more sustainable and doing work for the community. 2:26 – Chuck: What do you been by “contributing” – because people could think that “code contributions” would be it. 2:50 – Erik: Answering people’s questions in a chat, code contributions, or doing a podcast or doing a blog posts. I think there are a lot of ways to contribute. Really anything to make their lives and work easier. 3:33 – Panelist: Can we go around and ask the panel individually what THEY do? It could be as simple as mentoring someone at your work. I’m curious to see what the panelist members have done. Sometimes you can get paid for those contributions. 4:40 – Panelist: I am super scared to contribute source code. I really love organizing things: Meetups, conferences, etc. That’s my favorite sort of work. It is also terrifying, though, too. Educational content and organizing conferences are my favorite ways to contribute. 6:10 – Panelist: Why is that attractive for you? 6:22 – Panelist: That’s a good question. I’ve already started planning for the 2022 conference. It’s very physical – there are people that are present. Very direct interaction. My second favorite is sometimes I will teach at local boot camp, and the topic is about interviewing. There is interaction there, too. 8:32 – Panelist: Why do you think organizing conferences is useful? 8:46 – Panelist: Top way is that I will hear stories after the fact. “Oh I came to the conference, met this person, and now I have a new job that pays 30% more...thank you!” Stories like that are rewarding. It’s a ripple effect. A conference the main thing you are putting out there are videos (main product) going to YouTube. The people that are there, at the conference, are interacting people and they are making friends and making contacts. It inspires them to do better. John Papa just goes out there to talk into the hallway. You can talk to Chris Fritz in the hall. Make yourself available. You are the celebrities and people want to meet you. 12:20 – Panel talks about how desperate they are to talk to Chris. 12:36 – Panelist: Going to conferences and meeting other people. 13:08 – Panelist: Taking part of conferences in other ways. That’s something that you do Divya Sasidharan? 13:33 – Divya: It depends on your personality. You get to speak as a speaker, because you get visibility fast. I don’t think you don’t have to speak if you don’t want to speak. Anything within your community that is beneficial. Or the one-to-one interactions are great. Having a conversation with another person that cannot respond. It’s nice to give a speech because it’s a one-way conversation. I like the preparation part of it. The delivery is the nerves, afterwards is a high because it’s over with. I really like writing demos. For the demos I put in a lot of time into it. It gives me the space and time constraint to work on those demos. 16:10 – Do you like the preparation or the delivery? 16:20 – Preparation part that I do not like as much because it is nerve-wrecking, and then the anticipation to go up there on stage. 16:55 – Panelist: I am nervous until when it starts. Once I start talking – well that’s it! Can’t go back now. 17:26 – John: I have given a few talks at a conference. 17:39 – Panelist: Doing good and contributing. I knew John Papa when he was in Microsoft in 2000/2001. I read about it. Everyone knew about him. It would be so GREAT to meet John Papa, and now we are friends! We get to talk about personal stuff and I learn from him. 18:42 – Chris: I have had moments like that, too. Act like they are a normal person. 19:01 – Chuck: After I walk off the stage people want to talk to me afterwards. 19:24 – John: For my personal style, I learn about talking at conferences. I spend a lot of times building a demo. I don’t spend a lot of times with decks. I work on the code, the talk separately. I whip that up quickly, so I don’t This is the story I am going to tell – that’s what I tell myself before I do a talk at a conference. Afterwards, people come up to you years later – and they give you these awesome feedback comments. It’s a huge reward and very fulfilling. There was someone in this world you were able to impact. That’s why I like teaching. I watch the sessions on YouTube. I want to have deep conversations with people. You are missing out if you aren’t talking to people at the conference. 23:26 – Panelist: Yeah, I agree. I do a lot of YouTube videos. I write a blog for a few years on Node and such. Then I got into videos, and helping new developers. Videos on Vue.js. Like you, Joe, I try to combine the two. If I can help myself, and OTHERS, that is great. I promote my own courses, my own affiliate links. It’s really fun talking in front of a video camera. Talking through something complex and making it simple. 24:52 – Panelist: Creating videos vs. speaking at a conference. 25:02 – Panelist: My bucket list is to do my conferences. I want to start putting out proposals. Easiest thing for me is to make videos. I used to do 20 takes before I was happy, but now I do one take and that’s it. 256:00 – Sounds like lower effort. You don’t have to ask anyone for permission to do a YouTube video. 26:21 – Panelist: Even if you are a beginner, then you can probably help others, too. At first, you feel like you are talking to yourself. If anything else, you are learning and you are getting experience. The ruby ducky programming. Talking to something that cannot respond to you. 27:11 – Like when I write a... 27:29 – Check out duck punching, and Paul Irish. 28:00 – Digital Ocean 28:42 – The creativity of doing YouTube videos. Is that rewarding to be creative or the organization? What part do you like in the creation process? 29:23 – I think a blog you have text you can be funny you can make the text interesting. With videos it’s a whole new world of teaching. YouTubers teaching certain concepts. There are other people that have awesome animations. If I wanted to talk about a topic and do something simple or talk outside – there are a ton of different ways 31:10 – Panelist: Some times I just want to go off and be creative; hats-off to you. 31:28 – Panelist: I have tried to do a course with time stamps and certain 32:00 – D: Do you have a process of how you want to create your videos – what is your process? 32:22 – Panelist: I have a list of topics that I want to talk about. Then when I record it then I have a cheat sheet and I just go. Other people do other things, though. Like sketches and story boarding. 33:16 – D: Fun, fun, function. He has poster boards that he holds up and stuff. 33:36 – Panelist: People who listen to this podcast might be interested in podcasting? 33:54 – Panelist: Anyone who runs a podcast, Chuck? 34:16 – Chuck: When I started podcasting – I initially had to edit and publish – but now I pay someone to do it. It is a lot more work than it is. All you have to do is record and have a decent microphone, and put it out there. 35:18 – Panelist: It’s a labor of love. You almost lost your house because at first it wasn’t profitable. 35:45 – Chuck: Yeah for the most part we have it figured it out. Even then, we have 12 shows on the network on DevChat TV. 3 more I want to start and I want to put those on YouTube. Some people want to be on a new show with me. We will see. 36:37 – Chuck: I have a lot of people who asked about Python. We all come together and talk about what we are doing and seeing. It’s the water cooler discussion that people can hear for themselves. The conversation that you wish you could have to talk to experts. 38:03 – Podcasts provide that if you cannot get that at a conference? 38:16 – Conference talks are a little bit more prepared. We can go deeper in a podcast interview, because we can bring them back. You can get as involved as you want. It’s also 38:53 – Chuck: Podcasting is good if there is good content and it’s regular. 39:09 – Panelist: What is GOOD content? 39:20 – Chuck: There are different things people want. Generally they want something like: Staying Current Staying on the Edge When you go into the content it’s the host(s). I identify the way this host says THIS a certain way or that person says something THAT Way. That is all community connection. We do give people an introduction to topics that they might not hear anywhere else. With a Podcast if something new comes up we can interview someone THIS week and publish next week. Always staying current. 41:36 – Chuck: A lot of things go into it and community connection and staying current. 41:52 – Panelist: How to get started in EACH of the things we talked about. How do we try to get paid for some of these things? So we can provide value to communities. Talking about money sometimes is taboo. 43:36 – Panelist: Those are full topics all in by themselves. 43:55 – Chuck: Sustainability – let’s talk about that. I think we can enter into that 44:15 – Panelist: How do you decide what’s for free and what you are charging? How do you decide? 44:55 – Joe: I think one thing to start off is the best way to operate – do it because you feel like it needs to be done. The money follows. The minute you start solving people’s problems, money will follow. It’s good to think about the money, but don’t be obsessed. React conference. The react team didn’t want to do the conference, but it’s got to happen. The money happened afterwards. The money follows. Look for opportunities. Think ahead and be the responsible one. 47:28 – Panelist: If you want to setup a Meetup then go to... 47:45 – Panelist: I bet if you went to a Meet up and said you want to help – they would love that. 47:59 – Panelist: Yes, do something that is valuable. But events you will have a budget. Is it important to have money afterwards or try to break even? 48:38 – Joe: I think having money after the conference is just fine. The #1 thing is that if you are passionate about the project then you will make decisions to get that project out there. I can’t spend 500+ hours on something that it won’t help me pay my mortgage. 51:29 – Panelist: It’s not greedy to want money. 51:46 – Panelist: It’s a very thankless job. Many people don’t know how much effort goes into a conference. It’s a pain. People like Joe will put in 90 hours a week to pull off a conference. It’s a very, very difficult job. 53:42 – Panelist: Question to Divya. 54:00 – Divya: I have only been speaking for about a year now. For me, I feel this need to speak at different events to get my name out there. You wan the visibility, access to community and other benefits. These things trump the speaker’s fee. As I get more experience then I will look for a speaker’s fee. This fee is a baseline to make sure that you are given value for your time and effort. Most conferences do pay for your hotel and transportation. 56:58 – Panelist: How much is worth it to me to go and speak? Even if at the lower level; but someone who is a luminary in the field (John Papa). But for me it’s worth it. I am willing to spend my own dime. 58:14 – Panelist: John? 58:37 – John: You learn the most when you listen. I am impressed on your perspectives. Yes, early on you’ve got to get your brand out there. It’s an honor to speak then I’m honored. Do I have time? Will my family be okay if I am gone 3-4 days? Is this something that will have an impact in some way? Will I make connections? Will I be able to help the community? There is nothing wrong with saying I need to be paid X for that speech. It’s all of the blood, sweat, and tears that go into it. 1:01:30 – Panelist chimes in. I run conferences we cannot even cover their travel costs. Other conferences we can cover their travel costs; and everything in-between. There is nothing wrong with that. 1:02:11 – You have to be financially sound. Many of us do workshops, too. 1:02:59 – How do you get paid for podcasting? 1:03:11 – Chuck: I do get crap for having ads in the podcast. Nobody knows how much editing goes into one episode. It takes money for hosting, and finding guests, and it costs through Zoom. The amount of time it takes to produce these 12 shows is time-consuming. If you want to get something sponsored. Go approach companies and see. Once you get larger 5-10,000 listeners then that’s when you can pay your car payment. It’s a labor of love at first. The moral is that you WANT to do what you are doing. 1:06:11 – Advertisement.

Then I got into videos, and helping new developers. Videos on Vue.js. Like you, Joe, I try to combine the two. If I can help myself, and OTHERS, that is great. I promote my own courses, my own affiliate links. It’s really fun talking in front of a video camera. Talking through something complex and making it simple. 24:52 – Panelist: Creating videos vs. speaking at a conference. 25:02 – Panelist: My bucket list is to do my conferences. I want to start putting out proposals. Easiest thing for me is to make videos. I used to do 20 takes before I was happy, but now I do one take and that’s it. 256:00 – Sounds like lower effort. You don’t have to ask anyone for permission to do a YouTube video. 26:21 – Panelist: Even if you are a beginner, then you can probably help others, too. At first, you feel like you are talking to yourself. If anything else, you are learning and you are getting experience. The ruby ducky programming. Talking to something that cannot respond to you. 27:11 – Like when I write a... 27:29 – Check out duck punching, and Paul Irish. 28:00 – Digital Ocean 28:42 – The creativity of doing YouTube videos. Is that rewarding to be creative or the organization? What part do you like in the creation process? 29:23 – I think a blog you have text you can be funny you can make the text interesting. With videos it’s a whole new world of teaching. YouTubers teaching certain concepts. There are other people that have awesome animations. If I wanted to talk about a topic and do something simple or talk outside – there are a ton of different ways 31:10 – Panelist: Some times I just want to go off and be creative; hats-off to you. 31:28 – Panelist: I have tried to do a course with time stamps and certain 32:00 – D: Do you have a process of how you want to create your videos – what is your process? 32:22 – Panelist: I have a list of topics that I want to talk about. Then when I record it then I have a cheat sheet and I just go. Other people do other things, though. Like sketches and story boarding. 33:16 – D: Fun, fun, function. He has poster boards that he holds up and stuff. 33:36 – Panelist: People who listen to this podcast might be interested in podcasting? 33:54 – Panelist: Anyone who runs a podcast, Chuck? 34:16 – Chuck: When I started podcasting – I initially had to edit and publish – but now I pay someone to do it. It is a lot more work than it is. All you have to do is record and have a decent microphone, and put it out there. 35:18 – Panelist: It’s a labor of love. You almost lost your house because at first it wasn’t profitable. 35:45 – Chuck: Yeah for the most part we have it figured it out. Even then, we have 12 shows on the network on DevChat TV. 3 more I want to start and I want to put those on YouTube. Some people want to be on a new show with me. We will see. 36:37 – Chuck: I have a lot of people who asked about Python. We all come together and talk about what we are doing and seeing. It’s the water cooler discussion that people can hear for themselves. The conversation that you wish you could have to talk to experts. 38:03 – Podcasts provide that if you cannot get that at a conference? 38:16 – Conference talks are a little bit more prepared. We can go deeper in a podcast interview, because we can bring them back. You can get as involved as you want. It’s also 38:53 – Chuck: Podcasting is good if there is good content and it’s regular. 39:09 – Panelist: What is GOOD content? 39:20 – Chuck: There are different things people want. Generally they want something like: Staying Current Staying on the Edge When you go into the content it’s the host(s). I identify the way this host says THIS a certain way or that person says something THAT Way. That is all community connection. We do give people an introduction to topics that they might not hear anywhere else. With a Podcast if something new comes up we can interview someone THIS week and publish next week. Always staying current. 41:36 – Chuck: A lot of things go into it and community connection and staying current. 41:52 – Panelist: How to get started in EACH of the things we talked about. How do we try to get paid for some of these things? So we can provide value to communities. Talking about money sometimes is taboo. 43:36 – Panelist: Those are full topics all in by themselves. 43:55 – Chuck: Sustainability – let’s talk about that. I think we can enter into that 44:15 – Panelist: How do you decide what’s for free and what you are charging? How do you decide? 44:55 – Joe: I think one thing to start off is the best way to operate – do it because you feel like it needs to be done. The money follows. The minute you start solving people’s problems, money will follow. It’s good to think about the money, but don’t be obsessed. React conference. The react team didn’t want to do the conference, but it’s got to happen. The money happened afterwards. The money follows. Look for opportunities. Think ahead and be the responsible one. 47:28 – Panelist: If you want to setup a Meetup then go to... 47:45 – Panelist: I bet if you went to a Meet up and said you want to help – they would love that. 47:59 – Panelist: Yes, do something that is valuable. But events you will have a budget. Is it important to have money afterwards or try to break even? 48:38 – Joe: I think having money after the conference is just fine. The #1 thing is that if you are passionate about the project then you will make decisions to get that project out there. I can’t spend 500+ hours on something that it won’t help me pay my mortgage. 51:29 – Panelist: It’s not greedy to want money. 51:46 – Panelist: It’s a very thankless job. Many people don’t know how much effort goes into a conference. It’s a pain. People like Joe will put in 90 hours a week to pull off a conference. It’s a very, very difficult job. 53:42 – Panelist: Question to Divya. 54:00 – Divya: I have only been speaking for about a year now. For me, I feel this need to speak at different events to get my name out there. You wan the visibility, access to community and other benefits. These things trump the speaker’s fee. As I get more experience then I will look for a speaker’s fee. This fee is a baseline to make sure that you are given value for your time and effort. Most conferences do pay for your hotel and transportation. 56:58 – Panelist: How much is worth it to me to go and speak? Even if at the lower level; but someone who is a luminary in the field (John Papa). But for me it’s worth it. I am willing to spend my own dime. 58:14 – Panelist: John? 58:37 – John: You learn the most when you listen. I am impressed on your perspectives. Yes, early on you’ve got to get your brand out there. It’s an honor to speak then I’m honored. Do I have time? Will my family be okay if I am gone 3-4 days? Is this something that will have an impact in some way? Will I make connections? Will I be able to help the community? There is nothing wrong with saying I need to be paid X for that speech. It’s all of the blood, sweat, and tears that go into it. 1:01:30 – Panelist chimes in. I run conferences we cannot even cover their travel costs. Other conferences we can cover their travel costs; and everything in-between. There is nothing wrong with that. 1:02:11 – You have to be financially sound. Many of us do workshops, too. 1:02:59 – How do you get paid for podcasting? 1:03:11 – Chuck: I do get crap for having ads in the podcast. Nobody knows how much editing goes into one episode. It takes money for hosting, and finding guests, and it costs through Zoom. The amount of time it takes to produce these 12 shows is time-consuming. If you want to get something sponsored. Go approach companies and see. Once you get larger 5-10,000 listeners then that’s when you can pay your car payment. It’s a labor of love at first. The moral is that you WANT to do what you are doing. 1:06:11 – Advertisement.

Panel: AJ O’Neal Aimee Knight Joe Eames Charles Max Wood Special Guests: Chris Heilmann In this episode, the panel talks with programmer, Chris Heilmann. He has written books about JavaScript, in addition to writing a blog about it and is an educator about this program. He currently resides in Berlin, Germany. Let’s welcome our special guest and listen to today’s episode! Show Topics: 2:19 – Chuck talks. 2:41 – Chris: He has talked about JavaScript in Berlin upon an invitation. You can get five different suggestions about how to use JavaScript. The best practices, I have found, are on the projects I am on now. JavaScript was built in ten days. My goal is to help people navigate through JavaScript and help them feel not disenfranchised. 5:47 – Aimee: The overall theme is... 5:54 – Panelist: I really like what you said about helping people not feeling disenfranchised. 6:47 – Chris: There is a lot of peer pressure at peer conferences 7:30 – Aimee chimes in with some comments. 7:50: Chris: I think we need to hunt the person down that put... 8:03 – Panelist: A good point to that is, I try to avoid comments like, “Well, like we ALL know...” 8:27 – Chris: There are things NOT to say on stage. It happens, but we don’t want to say certain things while we are teaching people. We are building products with different groups, so keep that in mind. 9:40 – Aimee: My experience in doing this is that I have found it very rewarding to share embarrassing experiences that I’ve had. My advice would to tell people to let their guard down. It’s encouraging for me. 10:26 – Chris: It helps to show that you are vulnerable and show that you are still learning, too. We are all learning together. 90% of our job is communicating with others. 11:05 – Chuck: Now, I do want to ask this... 11:35 – Chris answers. 12:24 – What makes you say that? (Question to Chris) 12:25 – Chris answers. 13:55 – Chuck: The different systems out there are either widely distributed or... You will have to work with other people. There is no way that people can make that on their own. If you can’t work with other people, then you are a hindrance. 14:31 – Aimee chimes in. 14:53 – Chris: They have to be very self-assured. I want to do things that are at the next level. Each developer has his or her own story. I want to move up the chain, so I want to make sure these developers are self-assured. 16:07 – Chris: Back to the article... 18:26 – Chuck: Yes, I agree. Why go and fight creating a whole system when it exists. 18:54 – Chris chimes in with some comments. 19:38 – Panelist: I still use console logs. 19:48 – Chris: We all do, but we have to... 19:55 – Aimee: In the past year, I can’t tell you how much I rely on this. Do I use Angular? Do I learn Vue? All those things that you can focus on – tools. 10:21 – Chris: We are talking about the ethics of interfaces. Good code is about accessibility, privacy and maintainability, among others. Everything else is sugar on top. We are building products for other people. 22:10 – Chuck: That is the interesting message in your post, and that you are saying: having a deep, solid knowledge of React (that is sort of a status thing...). It is other things that really do matter. It’s the impact we are having. It’s those things that will make the difference. Those things people will want to work with and solves their problems. 23:00 – Chris adds his comments. He talks about Flash. 24:05 – Chris: The librarian motto: “I don’t know everything, but I can look “here” to find the answer.” We don’t know everything. 24:31 – Aimee: Learn how to learn. 24:50 – Chris: There is a big gap in the market. Scratch is a cool tool and it’s these puzzle pieces you put together. It was hard for me to use that system. No, I don’t want to do that. But if you teach the kids these tools then that’s good. 24:56 – Chuck: Here is the link, and all I had to do was write React components. 26:12 – Chris: My first laptop was 5x more heavy then this one is. Having access to the Internet is a blessing. 27:24 – Advertisement 28:21 – Chuck: Let’s bring this back around. If someone has gone through boot camp, you are recommending that they get use to know their editor, debugging, etc. Chris: 28:47 – Chris: Yes, get involved within your community. GitHub. This is a community effort. You can help. Writing code from scratch is not that necessary anymore. Why rebuild something if it works. Why fix it if it’s not broken? 31:00 – Chuck talks about his experience. 31:13 – Chris continues his thoughts. Chris: Start growing a community. 32:01 – Chuck: What ways can people get involved within their community? 32:13 – Chris: Meetup. There are a lot of opportunities out there. Just going online and seeing where the conferences 34:08 – Chris: It’s interesting when I coach people on public speaking. Sharing your knowledge and learning experience is great! 34:50 – Chuck: If they are learning how to code then...by interacting with people you can get closer to what you need/want. 35:30 – Chris continues this conversation. 35:49 – Chris: You can be the person that helps with x, y, z. Just by getting your name known then you can get a job offer. 36:23 – Chuck: How do you find out what is really good content – what’s worth your time vs. what’s not worth your time? 36:36 –Chris says, “That’s tricky!” Chris answers the question. 37:19: Chris: The best things out there right now is... 38:45 – Chuck: Anything else that people want to bring up? 39:00 – Chris continues to talk. 42:26 – Aimee adds in her thoughts. Aimee: I would encourage people to... 43:00 – Chris continues the conversation. Chris: Each project is different, when I build a web app is different then when I build a... 45:07 – Panelist: I agree. You talked about abstractions that don’t go away. You use abstractions in what you use. At some point, it’s safe to rly on this abstraction, but not this one. People may ask themselves: maybe CoffeeScript wasn’t the best thing for me. 46:11 – Chris comments and refers to jQuery. 48:58 – Chris continues the conversation. Chris: I used to work on eight different projects and they worked on different interfaces. I learned about these different environments. This is the project we are now using, and this will like it for the end of time. This is where abstractions are the weird thing. What was the use of the abstraction if it doesn’t have longevity? I think we are building things too soon and too fast. 51:04 – Chris: When I work in browsers and come up with brand new stuff. 52:21 – Panelist: Your points are great, but there are some additional things we need to talk about. Let’s take jQuery as an example. There is a strong argument that if you misuse the browser... 53:45 – Chris: The main issue I have with jQuery is that people get an immediate satisfaction. What do we do besides this? 55:58 – Panelist asks Chris further questions. 56:25 – Chris answers. Chris: There are highly frequent websites that aren’t being maintained and they aren’t maintainable anymore. 57:09 – Panelist: Prototypes were invented because... 57:51 – Chris: It’s a 20/20 thing. 58:04 – Panelist: Same thing can be said about the Y2K. 58:20 – Panelist: Yes, they had to solve that problem that day. The reality is... 58:44 – Chris: We learned from that whole experience. 1:00:51 – Chris: There was a lot of fluff around it. 1:01:35 – Panelist: Being able to see the future would be a very helpful thing. 1:01:43 – Chris continues the conversation. 1:02:44 – Chuck: How do people get ahold of you? 1:03:04 – Twitter is probably the best way. 1:03:32 – Let’s go to picks! 1:03:36 - Advertisement Links: JavaScript So you Learned Java Script, what now? – Article WebHint Article by James Sinclair Clank!

Why fix it if it’s not broken? 31:00 – Chuck talks about his experience. 31:13 – Chris continues his thoughts. Chris: Start growing a community. 32:01 – Chuck: What ways can people get involved within their community? 32:13 – Chris: Meetup. There are a lot of opportunities out there. Just going online and seeing where the conferences 34:08 – Chris: It’s interesting when I coach people on public speaking. Sharing your knowledge and learning experience is great! 34:50 – Chuck: If they are learning how to code then...by interacting with people you can get closer to what you need/want. 35:30 – Chris continues this conversation. 35:49 – Chris: You can be the person that helps with x, y, z. Just by getting your name known then you can get a job offer. 36:23 – Chuck: How do you find out what is really good content – what’s worth your time vs. what’s not worth your time? 36:36 –Chris says, “That’s tricky!” Chris answers the question. 37:19: Chris: The best things out there right now is... 38:45 – Chuck: Anything else that people want to bring up? 39:00 – Chris continues to talk. 42:26 – Aimee adds in her thoughts. Aimee: I would encourage people to... 43:00 – Chris continues the conversation. Chris: Each project is different, when I build a web app is different then when I build a... 45:07 – Panelist: I agree. You talked about abstractions that don’t go away. You use abstractions in what you use. At some point, it’s safe to rly on this abstraction, but not this one. People may ask themselves: maybe CoffeeScript wasn’t the best thing for me. 46:11 – Chris comments and refers to jQuery. 48:58 – Chris continues the conversation. Chris: I used to work on eight different projects and they worked on different interfaces. I learned about these different environments. This is the project we are now using, and this will like it for the end of time. This is where abstractions are the weird thing. What was the use of the abstraction if it doesn’t have longevity? I think we are building things too soon and too fast. 51:04 – Chris: When I work in browsers and come up with brand new stuff. 52:21 – Panelist: Your points are great, but there are some additional things we need to talk about. Let’s take jQuery as an example. There is a strong argument that if you misuse the browser... 53:45 – Chris: The main issue I have with jQuery is that people get an immediate satisfaction. What do we do besides this? 55:58 – Panelist asks Chris further questions. 56:25 – Chris answers. Chris: There are highly frequent websites that aren’t being maintained and they aren’t maintainable anymore. 57:09 – Panelist: Prototypes were invented because... 57:51 – Chris: It’s a 20/20 thing. 58:04 – Panelist: Same thing can be said about the Y2K. 58:20 – Panelist: Yes, they had to solve that problem that day. The reality is... 58:44 – Chris: We learned from that whole experience. 1:00:51 – Chris: There was a lot of fluff around it. 1:01:35 – Panelist: Being able to see the future would be a very helpful thing. 1:01:43 – Chris continues the conversation. 1:02:44 – Chuck: How do people get ahold of you? 1:03:04 – Twitter is probably the best way. 1:03:32 – Let’s go to picks! 1:03:36 - Advertisement Links: JavaScript So you Learned Java Script, what now? – Article WebHint Article by James Sinclair Clank!

Panel: AJ O’Neal Aimee Knight Joe Eames Special Guests: Nader Dabit In this episode, the panel talks with programmer, Nader Dabit, who has been with Amazon’s AWS for the past six months. They discuss the new innovations that Amazon is currently working on, and the exciting new projects that Nader gets to be involved with. Check out this episode to hear all the latest! Show Topics: 1:45 – There are two main things that Nader works with. Check out this timestamp to see what they are. 3:29 – AJ to Nader: Tell me more about manage cloud. I am not sure about Cognito. 3:56 – Yes, Cognito is used by/through Amazon. 5:06 – What are the other manage cloud services that companies want to offer through the tools you have? 5:12 – Nader answers AJ’s question. 7:30 – Can you give me more specifics on the storage solutions you are offering? 8:03 – Nader answers AJ’s question. People store websites there for example. Frontend developers are using S3 buckets, and they are using the library, which is a storage solution. 9:10 – AJ and Nader are having a dialogue between different situations, and Nader is giving the solutions to those hypothetical situations. 10:17 – AJ: “I am interested in what you are talking about AppSync. Can you tell me how that works?” AJ is picking Nader’s brain about how AppSync works. 11:05 – Nader: “It is a single API layer for a point of entry. You can have multi-data sources.” Nader continues, in detail, answering AJ’s question. 12:36 – AJ: As a frontend developer, it sounds like I will have to become familiar with the backend, too. How is it providing the most value? What is it that I do not have to touch, because I am using this? 15:37 – How would these relations work? As a frontend developer, and I do not want to learn sequel, how would that might look like; currently or in the future? How do you extract that knowledge? 16:18 – Yes, it is not an easy solution to solve. Nader goes into detail about how he would approach this situation. 18:26 – AJ: Are these resolvers written in JavaScript? 22:04 – Acronym fun! 22:45 – Node 23:51 – Summarizing these pasts 20-some-minutes: Off-Storage, AppSync, Landis, and others are what people are using Amplify for. New Question/New Topic: Simplify. 25:45 – AWS MOBILE – is not mobile specific. 26:44 – If you are using Angular, we have a plugin in Angular to help you. We also have that for React and Vue as well. 27:52 – Advertisement 28:56 – What should we be talking about? 29:04 – Let’s talk about Amazon’s Lex, Chat Bot. Nader goes into full detail of this service. 33:52 – Apple T.V. 34:00 – AJ: Sounds like this is more platform/ more agnostic than getting different things to come together, and the Microsoft one is more hybrid and the Amazon one is more open? 35:13 – Joe, let’s go back to what you had to ask. 35:28 – Nader, you talked about PUSH notifications earlier. What is Pub/Sub? 36:30 – Is this like traditional hooks? Or custom? 37:25 – What is the “stuff” that gets you up in the morning and gets you excited to go to work at AWS? 38:40 – Nader: I really had no desire to change career paths, but it happened. 41:30 – AJ: I totally agree with the idea in that finding the common patterns, so that way someone on the lower-level can participate. AJ wants a platform that is open or purchase that can offer some of these benefits. It could be open-source or you used to buy the different tools. 43:27 AJ: What about for the hobbyist? 43:40 – Nader: I agree, that would be really nice. I can’t think of any free services that would be nice. 44:03 AJ – Not free in “free,” but “free” towards the idea of “free speech.” They would all be available and you get to choose what works well for you. 45:00 – SHOUTOUT to LISTENERS: Have an idea about this? Shoot the panel an e-mail! 45:33 – Hopefully this opens the listeners’ eyes to what’s out there. 45:48 – Cloud services. 46:55 – Innovation follows niche markets. When something gets big and established, innovation comes to a plateau. The innovation will develop in a new economic area like hydraulics. AJ thinks a niche will develop. 49:03 – Is there anything, Dabit, which you would like to talk about? 49:15 – Can we talk about AI as a service? 51:10 – Nader saw a demonstration recently. 52:26 – Hearing these implications is so cool, but when it comes to ML a panelist dabbled a little bit. He watched some videos, unless you want to devote a year or two to learning it then it’s too complex to put together. Do you have to be genius-level to get through? 53:29 – ML you are passing data. Nader is not quite sure. 56:00 Nader just did a blog post check-it-out! 56:49 – Let’s do Picks! 56:50 – Advertisement Links: Nader Dabit’s Twitter Nader Dabit’s Medium Nader Dabit’s LinkedIn Nader Dabit’s GitHub Nader Dabit’s Website Nader Dabit’s YouTube channel Nader Dabit’s Egg Head JavaScript Amazon’s Cognito AWS AppSyncNode Landis AWS Mobile Vue Angular Amazon’s Lex – Chat Bot Apple T.V.

Panel: Charles (Chuck) Max Wood Lucas Reis Special Guests: Charles Lowell & Taras Mankovski In this episode, the panel talks with two special guests Charles and Taras. Charles Lowell is a principle engineer at Frontside, and he loves to code. Taras works with Charles and joined Frontside, because of Charles’ love for coding. There are great personalities at Frontside, which are quite diverse. Check out this episode to hear about microstates, microstates with react, OM, Redux, and much more! Show Topics: 2:32 – Chuck: Why do we need it (microstates) and why do we need another state library? 2:42 – Charles answers Chuck’s question. Charles goes to explain that if you need to increment the number, you don’t need to do it with microstates. 3:41 – Another suggestion is given on this topic. 5:13 – The application isn’t hard in-of-itself. 6:45 – Chuck makes comments, and asks: It seems to be more like object-oriented approach? 7:44 – Objects compose much more easily. When you are dealing with pure functional code you are de-structuring and restructuring. Check-out LENSES. 9:53 – Taras makes comments. What were your inspirations for microstate? 10:27 – Charles: The personal journey it started for me started back in 2015. When I was working primarily in Ember.” Charles makes a reference to OM, check it out! 15:40 – Charles: “We had a goal in mind, and we kept that goal on mind and kept ‘dipping into the candy jar.’ We had to learn about the functional mumbo-jumbo. The goal was never to use those things. Whatever tools we needed from the functional world, we borrowed from freely.” 16:50 – Chuck asks a question. 17:00 – Taras answers chuck’s question. 19:58 – Charles (guest) keeps the conversation going and goes into detail about how to handle different scenarios with different tools. 21:00 – Question: How do you think microstate enters into this situation? 21:45 – The design of microstate is that it gives you a solution that is flexible. Other options aren’t as comprehensive like where you can use it; for example Redux. 23:49 – Another way to say it is...check-out this timestamp to hear other ideas about this topic. 24:53 – Digital Ocean’s Advertisement 25:28 – Conversation is back into swing. Question: There is a very interesting design with people who are not developers. What are the benefits or do they play together? 26:41 – As a frontend shop, there is a very clean mapping between state machine and type. The type corresponds to the state transitions, among others. For every state you have a class, and you have a method for every transition. It’s a great design tool. 29:07 – We don’t talk about states very often, right now, but in the near future we will. The valuable goals for us are to give people tools that will work correctly for them. To help people be more productive that is a great goal. One thing from people, I’ve learned, is to ask yourself ‘what needs to change?’ 33:03 – Now you are touching on the subject of teaching. What about mentoring with microstates? 33:26 – Success (to one of the panelists) is defined of how confident a person is with X program or tool. If they have ease, then they are on the right path. With mentoring in microstates the design speaks its purpose, the transitions are clear, so the panelist feels that he doesn’t really have to go into a lot of detail explaining the features. 36:25 – In the React community... 39:12 – Curious: Would we really be able to distribute state like how we distribute components? What is out-of-reach now, is that we have the state machine for the autocomplete component. 40:27 – Chuck: Is there a way to test microstates? 41:28 – Shameless plug...check it out! 42:31 – Anything else? Microstates and Microstates with React. 42:48 – If anyone is interested in this, then we are interested in talking with these people and/or companies. 43:29 – Let’s go to Picks! 43:31 – Advertisement for Charles Max Wood’s course!

Panel: Charles Max Wood Alyssa Nicholl Joe Eames Special Guests: James Shore In this episode, the Adventures in Angular panel talks about Agile Fluency with James Shore. James is one of Charles’ favorite people to talk to about Agile development because he is one of the people who really understands how people work, instead of the methodology proliferation that is more common. They talk about how Agile got started, the Agile Fluency Project, and how Agile has changed over the years. They also touch on TDD, the things people can do to solve the problems with Agile misconceptions, and more! Show Topics: 1:10 – James has been on the shows previously on Ruby Rogues Episode 275 and My Ruby Story Episode 48. 2:00 – He does a lot of work with agile, but actually got started with something called Extreme Programming. 3:14 – When Agile started, it was a reaction to the management belief that the right way to develop software was to hire armies of replaceable programmers and a few architects to design something that was then sent off for these programmers to work. 4:34 – Agile is turning into the “everything” thing. It is being used in many different spaces and leaving developers behind in the process. This goes along with “the law of raspberry jam.” 6:55 – The agile manifesto states that they value “Individuals and interactions over processes and tools.” 7:28 – The Agile Fluency Project is focused on software teams and they created the Agile Fluency Model, which is a way to describe how teams tend to learn Agile over time. They want people to be able to see what all they can really get out of Agile through this project. 10:05 – Alyssa is more confused on the subject of Agile development and is interested more in what people lost by not using Agile anymore. 11:45 – Agile changed from a grassroots movement driven by developers to a management structure that programmers ignore unless it affects their day-to-day. 14:18 – Test driven development is a way of writing your code so that you have confidence to change it in the future not a way you can get unit test code coverage. 17:36 – Joe defines TDD as a way to help him design better code and he finds value in using TDD and then once the code is done, throwing out the test and still find value in it. 19:50 – TDD creates better code by forcing you to think about the client who will be using it and it forces you writing code that is inherently testable, and therefore, better code. 22:22 – The values of Agile development have not been communicated to the programmers who are forced to use it, which accounts for the push back against it. 24:40 – The issue across the board is when people take and idea and think they can read a headline and understand it fully. 28:17 – The way to combat this problem is to dig into some of the things that was happening 15-20 years ago and you can look into DevOps. You can also look into the Agile Fluency Project and the Agile Fluency Model. 31:24 – To get started with talking about how you should do Agile from the trenches, you can look into the books Fearless Change by Mary Lynn Manns and More Fearless Change by Mary Lynn Manns to help you to learn how to make change within your organization. 35:18 – Planting seeds allows you to make change within your organization and make a difference in a small way. 36:10 – The easiest way to remove some of these obstacles is to get together with your team and get them to agree to a trial period. There are more ways as well to get over obstacles. 43:07 – The reason he became an Agile developer is because after his first job working with it, he never wanted to work any way else. So, he decided to start teaching Agile in order to keep working with it in his career.

Panel: Divya Sasidharan Erik Hanchett Joe Eames Chris Fritz In this episode, the panel talks about code automation, generators, and other topics. They talk about the pros and cons of what generators can and cannot do. Later they discuss different codes, such as Prettier and Eslint codes, and also talk about their pros and cons. Check-out today’s episode to get the full details on these topics and much more! Show Topics: 1:03 – Panel has different views on what code automation is and or is not. 2:53 – One of the panelists started his career with Rails. 3:58 – Let’s jump into one thing that I think Rails did really well, and that is generators! Generators aren’t really popular in the JavaScript community. What are generators? 4:43 – Generators is to help build your tooling. 4:57 – What is an example of a generator, and how can it resolve the issue-at-hand? 5:04 – To generate a component, for example. 5:20 – The panel go back and forth and discuss the different definitions of what a generator means to them, and the purpose of a generator. 8:29 – For beginners, if you are brand new to JavaScript then these generators could be confusing. 9:10 – People at first did not like Java’s generators. 10:04 – How much do you guys use generators in your workday? 10:07 – Angular CLI. 12:06 – To organize in a consistent way for a larger team, generators can help. 12:37 – It also standardizes things, too. If you have something in place, then basically the machine makes the decision for you already, which can save some headaches. 13:09 – Tooling to review code. As long as you can agree on a style then these tools can format your code the way you want it. 13:49 – Let’s talk about Prettier and Eslint code. Let’s take a poll. The panel goes back-and-forth and discusses the pros and cons of both codes, Prettier and Eslint. Some panelists have very strong views on one or the other, and they’ve had much experience with these codes, which they have given it much thought over the years. 22:36 – Bottom line: we all figure out things as we go along. 22:52 – New topic: Apart of the automated code review is to have Eslint and Prettier and other codes have all of these things run-on a pre-commit hook, only on the files that are staged. 25:06 – Who uses pre-commit hooks? A lot of people will run different tools to compress their images, and there is a tool that can help with that. 26:32 – Smart - anything to save time. 27:40 – New topic: Continuation integration. After a pre-commit hook in editor, then when you take a poll request then sometimes there are these services, Travis CI or CircleCI that will go through and run some tests to make sure that your project builds correctly, and deploy your site. I like to use tools like this. It integrates with others like GitHub among others. 29:54 – Digital Ocean’s Advertisement! 30:58 – If you want to see an example please got to this timestamp to hear the panelist’s suggestion! 32:03 – Once an application has been developed for a while it might take 4-5 minutes for it to finish – if I think it is fine, I don’t want to waste time. It doesn’t seem like a good use of my time. 36:23 – “Throwing out data is like gardening!” – This is Divya’s motto. 37:40 – One panelist likes to use the squash and merging option. 38:14 – Divya: “Do you have any control over what gets squashed?” 38:28 – Everything gets squashed 39:49 – Auto-completion. 40:27 – The panel talks about plugins and such. 41:10 – Back to continuation integration (CI). Biggest concern people have is it builds failing when nothing is wrong. 42:00 – “Time Zones” – that’s one scenario for Divya. 42:32 – Another panelist voices another concern. 45:31 – Another topic: Running Eslint and Prettier – how do we actually run those things? How do we run tests? 46:24 – The panel talks about what was and is popular within this field. 50:29 – Question asked. 50:41 – Proxies is very common. 54:46 – Another common web pack customization is when you have to use environmental variables. 55:55 – Anyone have anything else to talk about? No, so let’s talk about PICKS!

Panel: Charles Max Wood Alyssa Nicholl Joe Eames Special Guests: James Shore In this episode, the Adventures in Angular panel talks about Agile Fluency with James Shore. James is one of Charles’ favorite people to talk to about Agile development because he is one of the people who really understands how people work, instead of the methodology proliferation that is more common. They talk about how Agile got started, the Agile Fluency Project, and how Agile has changed over the years. They also touch on TDD, the things people can do to solve the problems with Agile misconceptions, and more! Show Topics: 1:10 – James has been on the shows previously on Ruby Rogues Episode 275 and My Ruby Story Episode 48. 2:00 – He does a lot of work with agile, but actually got started with something called Extreme Programming. 3:14 – When Agile started, it was a reaction to the management belief that the right way to develop software was to hire armies of replaceable programmers and a few architects to design something that was then sent off for these programmers to work. 4:34 – Agile is turning into the “everything” thing. It is being used in many different spaces and leaving developers behind in the process. This goes along with “the law of raspberry jam.” 6:55 – The agile manifesto states that they value “Individuals and interactions over processes and tools.” 7:28 – The Agile Fluency Project is focused on software teams and they created the Agile Fluency Model, which is a way to describe how teams tend to learn Agile over time. They want people to be able to see what all they can really get out of Agile through this project. 10:05 – Alyssa is more confused on the subject of Agile development and is interested more in what people lost by not using Agile anymore. 11:45 – Agile changed from a grassroots movement driven by developers to a management structure that programmers ignore unless it affects their day-to-day. 14:18 – Test driven development is a way of writing your code so that you have confidence to change it in the future not a way you can get unit test code coverage. 17:36 – Joe defines TDD as a way to help him design better code and he finds value in using TDD and then once the code is done, throwing out the test and still find value in it. 19:50 – TDD creates better code by forcing you to think about the client who will be using it and it forces you writing code that is inherently testable, and therefore, better code. 22:22 – The values of Agile development have not been communicated to the programmers who are forced to use it, which accounts for the push back against it. 24:40 – The issue across the board is when people take and idea and think they can read a headline and understand it fully. 28:17 – The way to combat this problem is to dig into some of the things that was happening 15-20 years ago and you can look into DevOps. You can also look into the Agile Fluency Project and the Agile Fluency Model. 31:24 – To get started with talking about how you should do Agile from the trenches, you can look into the books Fearless Change by Mary Lynn Manns and More Fearless Change by Mary Lynn Manns to help you to learn how to make change within your organization. 35:18 – Planting seeds allows you to make change within your organization and make a difference in a small way. 36:10 – The easiest way to remove some of these obstacles is to get together with your team and get them to agree to a trial period.

Panel: Charles Max Wood Erik Hanchett Joe Eames In this episode, the Views on Vue panel talks about Charles’ new course on how to Get a Coder Job. A lot of people come to Charles asking him how to get a coder job, especially as new developers, and he created this course in order to help them find jobs. They talk about how the panelists got their own first coder jobs, the difference between being self-taught and getting a CS degree, and the indicator that makes the biggest difference in getting a first job. They also touch on the importance of knowing how to interview, having a desire and passion for development, and more! In particular, we dive pretty deep on: A lot of people ask him how to find a coder job Get a Coder Job What is in the course? How did you get your first developer jobs? Erik gives advice about How to Get a Developer Job on his YouTube Channel Going the traditional route (CS degree) VS self-taught route Being self-taught is more common now You don’t need a CS degree to get a developer job Getting a CS degree is the most sure way to get into the industry Using boot camps The skillset you learn in a professional CS degree The indicator that makes the most difference is who you know and how many people you know The benefits of getting a degree Using the alumni network, professors, and counselors to get connections Knowing how to interview Different type of students in boot camps Dedication and desire to do this job matters There are a lot of Jr. developers entering the field right now Getting the right opportunities The different options you have to be trained And much, much more!
