I had felt for a long time that web development was a set of skills I should learn. I’ve lost the option of several really fantastic jobs because the skills just weren’t there. So I did something about it and picked up a class.
https://hospitalshopp.netlify.com/
I began working on a React-Native-Web app which intended to search for a description of the problem, such as ‘lung’ or ‘heart’, allowing you to find procedures related to that search term. Selecting the specific procedure, then find a nearby hospital that provides that nearby.
I ran into some trouble because all hospitals do not disclose their CPT codes in their prices, and hospitals may use different descriptions for those codes.
In any case, I learned a lot about working with JS and gained a formidable set of tools with which to write complex web applications.
- Working in Node and NPM
- JS/JSX concepts, such as arrow functions, nested components, props, and working with tests
- Practiced with git from the command line and practice working in a job environment with git.
- Class component lifecycle
- Data management
- React Router
- Styling and practice with CSS (it had been a while)
- Live Search
- Context in three parts, and a huge refactoring of a messy project
- Hooks and updating the DOM with precision
- using Netlify to host a project
- GraphQL
