Feel the Need to Do Something?
From The-I-Feel-The-Need-to-Do-Something Dept.:
Before you arrive at ZipCodeWilmington for your cohort, here are a few things you can work with.
Get yourself an account on GitHub.com if you don’t have one already. This one of the key tools we will be using throughout the coming cohort. When you signup for a GitHub account, be sure to pick a professional username…it’s hard to change.
When you have the GitHub account, work through this https://lab.github.com/githubtraining/introduction-to-github course on how to use Git & Github.
For more on Javascript, take a look at these materials: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/JavaScript - Mozilla and the Mozilla Developer Network are leaders in the education of technologists. Step through the material.
And for what we hope is your insatiable desire to learn a lot and quickly, we offer you this
three part blog post series: How the Web Works: A Primer for Newcomers to Web Development (or anyone, really)
At the bottom of the blog posts there are links to both Part 2 and Part 3 of this series. Be sure to read it
all twice (or more!) before you arrive!
