A lot happened this weekend. Cohort 6 graduated on Friday and Katrina left the devhouse :( Their goodbye party was fun though, and I really wish every one from that cohort is successful at finding jobs! Harsh (one of the co-founders of MakerSquare) took a selfie with some cohort 6 people + the instructors + me and alex :D
On Saturday and Sunday, I mostly worked on Robin.js which is a JavaScript framework we are creating. MakerSquare's theory is that if you know how these frameworks were built (like Backbone.js) it'll make it easier to use. JavaScript isn't object oriented so it's pretty confusing. To understand constructors and the prototype model, I watched this video (below) 6 times and learned it inside out. It's a bit long, but if you compare it to an OOP language like Ruby it'll start to make more sense. I took notes that compares the classical model and prototypal model if you're too lazy to watch the video. It's certainly worth watching though.
