Final Thoughts: What's The Point To Learn Web Develop?


I can't believe that I have finished the whole Web Develop Bootcamp course.

From Google Image


In this blog, I shared 80 key study notes about web develop which includes frontend and backend. Every note introduces the basic concepts of certain topics, and show the screenshots of codes, and explain each process.

I also shared some small project studies to implement all the related code together to make the learning more meaningful.

The learning process, for me, was not easy. I have to say it was so struggle. Sometimes I couldn't get the concept about the logical which made me very confused. Sometimes the code did't work in the server even though I typed the exactly the same codes as the course did.

Whenever the problem was happened, I couldn't sleep and couldn't eat.And this kind of issues had driven me crazy thousands of times.

At some points, I did want to give it up. It was just so hard for me. And my goal was not to become a developer, what's the point of learning it?


  • Have a Basic Understanding About IT Industry 
If I didn't take this course, I would never know about how internet work, what's the connection between different web develop languages, and how to build the entire web. Now, I got all those answers. 
  • Get To Know The Developer Work
When I heard someone is a developer, the first thing come to my mind is "OMG! They are unbelievable! They are so smart!". After I learned this course, I get to know it is not easy to do the web develop jobs. The process takes a lot times, and it requires a lot of efforts. 

Trust me, when I was writing code for only one hour, my eyes felt dry and super uncomfortable. My head felt heavy like holding a tons of stones. I can't image how those developer survive when they sit in front the computer whole day.

Now, if I see any developer, I would say:"Good Luck and Take Care!"
  • Won't Be Afraid To Read Code
When I worked in the company, I was always afraid to view the page source and find certain codes. I felt that I was reading something completely out of the earth. What were those tags? What were those code inside those tags? For me, it was just a messy.

After I learned these course, I was not afraid of inspect any page source. Even though they are still messy, I know what I am going to look for. It makes me feel that I did some impossible thing, and I feel proud of myself.
  • Be More Patient 
During the course, I followed the instructor to write the code and run the code. Unfortunately, it was not always processing the same way as the course did. This made me headache. I had to go back to review the code in each line to find the mistake. Sometimes it was misspelling; sometimes I forgot a simple space; and sometimes I forgot the quotes. 

Mistakes happened all the time. Even though I hate them, they do make me be more detail and more patient. 

No matter what, I feel so happy to complete this course and my goal! !

Intermediate Express.js: How To Add Styles & Partials in EJS File?

So far, we only have simple HTML tags and ejs tags in each ejs file. Every template page has no style at all. And the basic HTML header and footer are also missing. Today, I learned how to add styles and partials in ejs file. Link Style Step One: Touch a Separate CSS file I create a new directory "Style" under the "EJSDemo" directory, then I add a new CSS file "app.css" inside "Style" folder. Step Two: Add app.use(express.static()) in the app.js I add app.use(express.static("style")) in the "app.js". This will tell Express.js to serve the content of "Style" directory. Step Three: Write styles in CSS file I simple give body an orange background color and set text color to be grey. Step Four: Link to CSS file in the EJS file I just add <link> tag to link the "app.css" file on the top of the h1 tag in each ejs template. As the result, when I run the app and...

My Story: A Mommy Start To Learn Code From Zero

From Google Image I am not a programmer, and I thought I would never become one. Everytime I see someone is coding, I think he or she must be very talent.  For me, coding is a very difficult subject to learn. Not only the language has so many rules, but also the logical reasoning behind the language is complex.  In my graduated school, I knew many friends who didn't have any coding background, but they are doing programmer or developer jobs now. Some of them went to school to study coding, and some of them  learned to code by themselves. Their stories are so impressive.  I wasn't ready to learn code until I finished my first Chinese book "留学,我的青春呀!" recently. I always want to be a writer and write my own book. I started writing blog three years ago, and I updated my post two to three times every week. As I enjoyed writing , I started to get some followers, likes, and good comments on my blog. Then, I decided to plan my first book. My First...

Three Most Common HTML Form Elements You Should Know

When I visited the Facebook page at the first time, it required me to sign up. Therefore, I completed the sign up form to create my new account. The form is very simple to fill in because it only asks for very common information such as full name, phone number, new password, birthday, and gender. It only took me one or two minutes to finish the form. Not only Social media sites require us to sign up first before we post anything, but many business or eCommerce sites also ask us to create new account before we take any action. For example, when I go to the Origins skin care site, it will pop up a email sign up form window. To encourage new customers to sign up, it gives a 15% off for the first order. It is definitely an attractive call-to-action message. Anyway, if your website requires users to sign up, you need to know how to create a HTML form. Yesterday, I just learned how to build a simple HTML form from Udemy course. And it is not that hard. All you need to kno...
