Using the right React.js stack makes a world of difference in web development! In this video, we'll use Next.js, React.js, Tailwind CSS, and MobX to build Wordle from start to finish in right around 20min. (ok, mildly deceptive, 20min edited...it took me an hour to build it) View the source code here: https://github.com/learncodeacademy/wordle-react Next.js allows us to build a web app immediately with no bootstrapping. Tailwind CSS allows us to add styles to our page with no configuration and quick, modular results. MobX gives us a simple way to define our data in a store fashion and keep it separate from our view layer.

Learn coding fundamentals in mere minutes! This video will teach you about the three main components that nearly all computer programming shares: variables, flow control (a.k.a. control flow), and functions. And we'll do it in Javascript - the world's most popular programming language. This Javascript tutorial will combine es6 variables, flow control statements, and functions to teach any beginner how to code and how to program with a computer language.

Wanna code - and get paid for it? Here's the roadmap! This video gives you the complete checklist of everything you need to know to go from absolute beginner to hired-professional in Web Development. Web Development is about learning html, css, & javascript and building web applications with those technologies. View the checklist here https://www.learncode.academy/webdev

CSS utility classes are AMAZING. They save incredible amounts of time when both building and maintaining frontend code - ESPECIALLY in React/Vue/etc JS frameworks. Tailwind is a great CSS utility class framework that makes CSS fun again. Tailwind.css provides you with thousands of utility classes for nearly anything you would normally write CSS for in your HTML, CSS, & Javascript web development. These classes allow you to write style right in the markup and never have to worry about managing stylesheets. Utility classes really shine when you use them in javascript frameworks like React.js, Vue.js, etc. It allows you to copy/paste your component HTML and move it around freely with CSS always "just working".

MobX Local Observables are the ticket to happy state management, fast development speed, easy testing, and nearly all the benefits you'd get from using a state management solution like Redux ...without all the nasty ceremony and slowdowns that come from developing with Redux. This React.js + MobX tutorial covers how to use MobX with React to make your React web development fast and simple, easy to reason about as new coders join the project, and easy to test for app stabililty. React.js state management can be quite a pain, so getting it right - especially at the beginning of a project - is key. I encourage any developers to default to MobX local observables for their state management with React.js -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: "Tailwind CSS - why CSS utility classes save so much time" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5ar0dmQEY -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

Next.js should be your go-to for any React.js work these days. If you're using Create React App...STOP! You're missing out on the joys of Next.js. This tutorial covers Next.js for building React.js apps, websites, blogs. Almost web development you do with React will benefit from Next.js. Next.js is perfect for building an SPA (single page app) with React. Next.js is an amazing SSG (static site generator). Next.js is a great node.js server for your frontend UI. ...there's almost nothing Next.js isn't great for. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: "Tailwind CSS - why CSS utility classes save so much time" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5ar0dmQEY -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

My honest, unpaid review of https://UltimateHackingKeyboard.com/ - a split-or-not mechanical keyboard that I recently got my hands on! The Ultimate Hacking Keyboard UHK60 from https://UltimateHackingKeyboard.com/ is a 60% mechanical keyboard with a bunch of extra options and cool features that set it apart. It has layers as you would expect from a 60% mechanical keyboard allowing you to do everything you need to do from the home row. 2 buttons below the space bar also allow for easy switching of layers without making dedicated keys for it. Also included are tenting pegs for split keyboard tenting. Lastly, wooden palm rests are included as an option on this mechanical keyboard. This mechanical keyboard review is unbiased, hasn't been paid for, and, most importantly is made on the basis of using this keyboard for over a month straight. This mechanical keyboard has kailh brown keyswitches and blank keycaps. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: "Tailwind CSS - why CSS utility classes save so much time" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5ar0dmQEY -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

ArangoDB (https://www.arangodb.com/) is a SUPER COOL database that every developer should at least be familiar with. ArangoDB is muti-model, so you can use it as a document DB, a key/value store, or a graph DB all at the same time. ArangoDB has a TON of flexibility and features, ranging from GeoJSON, search views (arangosearch), the ability to add node.js microservices, and, best of all, a really nice query language. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: "Tailwind CSS - why CSS utility classes save so much time" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5ar0dmQEY -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

Don't guess, know when to use px, %, rm vs em, fr, ch, vw, vh and more...CSS gives you a LOT of options and each is there for a purpose. SPECIAL THANKS to https://twitter.com/chaddonohue for peer reviewing this content! In this tutorial, we'll cover all the CSS units, and, most importantly, which ones to use (and which NOT to use) for which situations. In web development, css units are often confusing as there are just many options. And, many css units - like px vs em vs rem, all seem to get the job done at times. But some are simply better than others and there are very good reasons why. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: "Tailwind CSS - why CSS utility classes save so much time" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5ar0dmQEY -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

My absolute favorite keyboard got an upgrade! I'm unboxing the latest ergonomic mechanical keyboard from Ergodox EZ and it GLOWS! It's here: http://ergodox-ez.com The Ergodox EZ keyboard has been my daily driver keyboard for a while now and I'll never go back. I've used it with gateron browns for a while now, and now they offer it with Kailh keyswitches. The one I'm opening has Kailh copper keyswitches. Compared to Cherry MX keyswitches, the Kailh copper keyswitches are very different, they almost feel like Matias Quiet Click keyswitches, which are my favorite keyswitches of all time. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Also watch: "Tailwind CSS - why CSS utility classes save so much time" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oU5ar0dmQEY -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
