| Hello, I'm glad you contacted me asking for help. In order to help you help | |
| yourself I have crafted this fine little automated email with information and | |
| things you should try before asking for help. When you run into a problem I | |
| want you to do the following things before you email me, and then email me your | |
| answers. Doing this will most likely help you solve the problem on your own, | |
| and will save me time in the long run. If after doing this you are truly | |
| stuck and you can answer all these questions then email me your answers and | |
| I'll help you. | |
| 1. Do you have a screenshot of the error you are getting? |
| // NOTE: the '#form-id' selector below will most certainly be different | |
| // for whatever page you're on. Remember to change it in both instances! | |
| // run this in the terminal to save the state of your form | |
| // in your browser's LocalStorage: | |
| [].forEach.call(document.querySelector('#form-id').elements, function(el) { | |
| localStorage.setItem(el.name, el.value); | |
| }); | |
| // then refresh the page and run this to restore your form values: |

This document is an RFC of sorts for increasing the adoption rate of Singular They in technical English. This is not an ultimatum; this is not shaming anyone who has done otherwise; and this is definitely not applicable to any other language.
(I'm enjoying doing these raw, barely edited writeups; I hope they're useful to you too)
This is my own writeup on feature flags; for a deep dive I'd recommend something like Martin Fowler's article (https://martinfowler.com/articles/feature-toggles.html).
So. Feature flags. The basic idea that you'll store configuration/values on a database/service somewhere, and by changing those values, you can change the user experience/features for a user on the fly.
Let's say that you're building a new feature, called 'new-button' which changes the color of buttons, which is currently red, to blue. Then you'd change code that looks like this -
| # Hello, and welcome to makefile basics. | |
| # | |
| # You will learn why `make` is so great, and why, despite its "weird" syntax, | |
| # it is actually a highly expressive, efficient, and powerful way to build | |
| # programs. | |
| # | |
| # Once you're done here, go to | |
| # http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/make.html | |
| # to learn SOOOO much more. |
