Group Chat Week 8

As usual, we’ll go around in a circle, and you can talk about what’s been going on for the past week.

The person whose first name is fourth alphabetically should lead the discussion.

Week 8 Reflection | 20-30 minutes

Go through each member of the group, and answer the following questions:

  • What did you find the most challenging this week, or what did you not understand?

    • Can anyone else in the circle give an explanation based on their own understanding?
    • If not, make a message in the week-8 channel on the Discord, and Adam will answer it.
  • Did you start the homework already? How far did you get through it?

    • If you already finished it, then show off your work! Did anyone complete their mad libz app?

Group Exercise | 20-25 minutes

Go through each of the following code snippets one-by-one. Give yourselves 2 minutes to take a look at it, see if you can crack the answer by yourself, and then compare your answer with the others!

I had to use codesandbox for this week’s exercises, since playcode doesn’t work well with Node.js. You’ll need to make sure that only one code sandbox window is open at a time for the right output to show up in the console/browser.

  • Why isn’t the page loading correctly in this code?
  • What would we need to do to get the POST route to work in this code?
  • What URL do you need to visit with this code to get your name to show up on the screen?
  • What would the console log on line 21 output in this code?
