A script to fix the resolution on Linux machines when the correct resolution isn't detected
#!/bin/zsh
# This is a shell script that sets up the resolution and position of the
# external display monitors. Most computers can figure this stuff out on
# their own, but this one can't :(
#
# How to use this script:
#
# Run `xrandr` to see a list of displays ports and make note of the one's that are "connected".
# As an example, if `DP-1` is on the left, and `HDMI-2` is on the right,

A journey of object orientation and prototypal inheritance in JavaScript

Object-orientation (OO) in JavaScript

  • Object-orientation in general
  • Prototypal inheritance
  • Classical inheritance

Object-orientation in general

Object orientation is a paradigm or style of designing software, which models the solution into objects. Objects are constructs that include both data (called properties) and behaviour (called methods). For example, a dog object could have a hairColor and isTired properties as well as bark() and sleep() methods. By combining the data and behaviour into a single construct, it is possible for the behaviour of an object to modify the data of the object. Objects are often designed around real world objects.

VS Code settings for EDA computers

IMPORTANT: This gist should be considered archived. You can find the currently maintained instructions at https://github.com/dev-academy-programme/computer-setup.

VS Code settings for EDA computers

This setup uses a global eslint installation. VS Code will use a locally installed/project-based ESLint installation, but if it doesn't find one, it will use this global one.

The following steps are best to be applied in order.

1. Install npm packages
