Learning Reflection

A summary of my journey through the IT Programming course.

Fall 2024: When I started this journey, I wasn't sure if I wanted to focus on code or design. Over the last few semesters, I've realized I love both. Building the logic for a game is satisfying, but making it look good is equally important.


Challenges: I struggled initially with JavaScript loops and array manipulation. However, after building a few small calculator apps, it clicked. I learned that breaking big problems into small steps is the key.


Successes: My proudest moment was debugging a connection issue between a database and a frontend form. It took two days, but the feeling of seeing the "Success" message was unmatched.


Future: I am now focusing heavily on optimizing my code for performance, ensuring that my web apps load fast and my games run at high frame rates.
