Coding my first project without tutorials has given me a tremendous sense of accomplishment and confidence. I've realized that I'm capable of learning and adapting quickly, even when faced with unfamiliar concepts or technologies. This experience has shown me that I can trust myself to figure things out and create something meaningful.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?One of the biggest hurdles I faced while working on this project was mastering version control using the terminal. As someone who was new to this method, I found it daunting to navigate the command line interface and make commits. However, I was determined to push through the learning curve. I turned to external resources like YouTube tutorials and online forums such as StackOverflow to help me better understand the concepts and troubleshoot issues. I spent quite some time watching videos and seeking guidance from experienced developers.
Through persistence and practice, I slowly began to feel more comfortable using the terminal for version control. I learned to appreciate the power and flexibility of Git and how it could help me manage my codebase more efficiently. The breakthrough moment came when I finally understood the concept of staging, committing, and pushing changes. It was a eureka moment that made all the struggles worth it. I felt a sense of accomplishment and confidence that I could tackle even more complex challenges.
I also struggled with file paths as my image was breaking. When I finally figured out how to fix the file paths and get my image to view on the local file, that boosted my confidence even further. However, once, I deployed the solution, the image was still breaking, I have yet to figure out how to solve that one :(
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?I struggled with file paths as my image was breaking. When I finally figured out how to fix the file paths and get my image to view on the local file, that boosted my confidence even further. However, once, I deployed the solution, the image was still breaking, I'm yet to figure out how to solve that one.
What can I do to stop my image from breaking once it's been deployed? The file path issue was fixed for the image to be visible on the local file, but how can I fix it so the image is visible on the live site?
