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.
My understanding of a data model, is that it’s a referential variable or set of variables that are used to update the DOM. You first update the data model, and then update the DOM.
While a framework could be a collection of libraries, but more so libraries have less rules and restriction, and tend to more specifically encapsulate some functionality, and a framework will encapsulate how you will actually develop.
This project was building out a desktop and mobile friendly site that allows a user to save "ideas" and then be able to interact with these ideas by favoriting, deleting, and commenting on them. We were also demonstrating the ability to match our design to a comp, build out responsive css with multiple media queries break points, and covered javascript concepts around using more than one class on a project, local storage, and functionality that builds html elements for filtering and displaying what ideas are present on the page.
My approach to working on a team is usally to communicate my strenghts and wekanesses, and to try and assess where best I can fit in, as well as where best we can all utilize our individual strengths. This project was a great example of this model working well, as we early on established a norm of accepting feedback and asking for help.

| What is the value of a checklist? | |
| Checklists for me, primarily speak to structure. | |
| Structure is valuable because it gives a basis to build from, a foundation to fall back on, | |
| and a starting point for every project. I am a creative type, so I am usually the first to admit the value of chaos, | |
| however you do need some order and guidance for project execution. Usually folks who don't rely on written lists still | |
| have mental ones. For me a tangible checklist, thought to paper (or computer) is valueable to free up space for other | |
| thought storage, and structure to harken back to when creating and building. It give me the freedome to not only | |
| rely on my memory moment to moment, and lets me rely on p;reviou brain space and work. | |
| What do you plan to improve upon while at Turing? | |
| I mean the easiest answer is "literally all of it". I am really excited to be starting on something that is genuinly so |
