This gist contains a short assignment I'd like everyone to complete before our formal lesson. The prework involves reading some of the React Router documentation, and will allow us to keep the lesson more hands on.
A framework is reliant on a library however a library isn't reliant on a frame work. A Library has fewer rules as to how it can be used vs a framework that has specific use cases.
Frameworks require less code, they keep the state of the app up to date with the DOM, and the code isn't as fragile as vanilla JS
There are different types of components such as functional components and class components. Functional/Class components are similar to their vanilla js counterparts, however they allow you to manipulate the DOM using JSX. The Class components contain state which holds key value pairs that can be updated as data is manipulated and then used to update the DOM.
JSX allows us to put HTML into our JS so that we can manipulate the DOM m

I have worked in the human services field for the last 6 years. I worked with adults that have been diagnosed with developmental disabilities; I worked with people who had high medical needs, people who needed constant supervision and supervised people who were almost completely independent. It was very important for me to be able to empathize with the people that I worked with because oftentimes they experienced the world differently than I did. In my time in the field, I have learned to be patient, and if my approach isn't working, well then I try another one.
Empathy helps you to build better software by looking at problems and solutions to them from different perspectives. It will also help to create a user-friendly interface that people can easily understand and interact with. If you can empathize with people, it will help you to create a better user experience
What is your greatest strength and how do you know?
My biggest strength is my ability to empathize with people and to use my flexability and adaptibility to approach them in a way that works well for us both. In my previous work settings I have worked with people with developmental disabilities, and I worked in fraud prevention/collections in a Credit Union. I find when you are working with people that if you can understand where someone is coming from (ie embarassed, angry, scared) you can adjust your approach so that you can communicate effectively.
How do you work best?
Initially, I do best when I can explain to me what the expectations are for the task that we are trying to accomplish. It is extremely helpful if I can work side by side with someone who can show me how they complete the task. After I have a grasp on the situ
