Women In Tech Workshop challenges and how I have adapted in the last few weeks

My experience for this workshop is very high because I learned a lot even if it was challenging but was interesting also. The same tools we used was familiar with me for UI.
But where it became interesting is when I get to know the meaning of every single code I was writing. I remember when we were writing CSS I didn’t know the meaning of code I was writing like RGB what it stands for but now I know something. Also, I learned a lot when we were working on the back-end it was something new for me to use JavaScript but I was eager to learn new things I face them and now I have something I got. Other things I learned from this workshop is how to test code for giving more functionality even validating my code was a good experience I got. In this workshop, I learned a lot from start until now I am still learned as I want to pursue my career as a software developer. Also, I do believe that what I got from this workshop will be helpful and useful in my career.

Other things I learned from this workshop are to work in teams, this doesn't means to use someone's code means to seek help where you are stuck. Even because of collaboration we have it helped us to learn quickly. Even if we worked as a team I met the same challenges personal. For example, in UI I tried to build all pages required but to make all page responsive was very difficult even to know what will be good for users like font-size, and color.

When we started back-end it was something new to use javascript because I was familiar with PHP, but it was challenging and interesting. Also when we were testing out endpoints was something new, but it was important as a software developer. According to what I knew and new things I learned I believe that it's been at a good level. And I am willing to learn a lot as a future software developer. Now I can say I learnt something new and will be helpful in my future career.
