Web Pre-Work

I gave my notice today. Sad to go, but excited to see what's next and take on a new challenge. My nerves are starting to pick up a little bit.

I've finished the HTML and CSS courses on CodeAcademy. I've done some web design so it was a nice review. It filled in some gaps regarding tables. I like that HTML5 has simplified the DOCTYPE declaration.

I'm about half-way through with the JavaScript section. I've never worked in JavaScript before, it's syntax feels a lot like PHP.

I'm excited to get to jQuery. I'd like to write a simple rock, paper, scissors, lizard, Spock game with clickable icons and a score board. I need the DOM manipulation in jQuery to manipulate the HTML to get this going.

Haven't started the C# yet. My books should arrive from Amazon tomorrow. 6 hours on a plane this Friday to get started working through them. Fingers crossed for an in-seat power plug.

T-minus 34 days
