…or, whatever happened to the overly-confident nerd of 1982???
So far, I’m doing well with the capstone. I’ve managed to produce the first few pages for my site. I’m pondering possibly dynamically creating the team add page as a static html page, as I already am creating the team edit page dynamically. I found some nice pictures to use, and I managed to get the carousel working. I also managed to use ES6 for my dynamic dropdown on the index page, and it worked! There is a whole laundry list of things we have to do, check, and double-check. I’ve been validating code like mad to make sure there are no issues with that, at least.
I’m more concerned with the upcoming final assessment. Once upon a time, I was one of those nerdy kids who relished taking tests, and beating out the rival nerds in the class. Decades later, I find that I have a tougher time with tests than I used to. For some reason, I’ll know something, but when I’m faced with a timed test, I mentally choke up and can’t think of the answer—even doing the practice tests is making me nervous.
Ironically, getting the arrow function question wrong on the practice test was what prompted me to figure out how to use ES6 for my index page…go figure.
