Working on the Free Code Camp Weather App

I am working on the Free Code Camp weather app quite consistently. Understanding the difference between $getJSON() and $ajax() to parse the JSON response from your chosen weather API is key. You can technically use $getJSON but the $ajax API call syntax is much easier to understand, though is more

100 Days of Code, Day 12:

11 December 2016Today’s Progress:I worked on the Free Code Camp weather app for a couple hours today. I am sifting through the Dark Sky API, Skycons, and Stack Overflow. It isn’t as hard as I am making it. I should have it done within the week. Thoughts:

Random Quote Generator Finale

Completed The First Front-End Project

So I finished the first front-end project for Free Code Camp in a couple days. It doesn’t render really well on mobile. I can’t seem to get the button I have at the bottom to do the following with the jQuery I have:$(‘.center_button’).click(function() { $(‘.center_

Front-End Programming Project on Free Code Camp

So I am working on the front-end programming projects for Free Code Camp. The first one is a tribute page to anyone you want. I chose Carl Sagan as he is my skeptical hero and scientist “for the people”. I’ve read one of his books and plenty of his
