React!

So lately I've been going through FCC's React challenges. It is a great refresher! I have previously started learning React, and I like it a lot! Also it is super popular. I created a React app after having to reinstall Windows since I named my computer my name with a space, which seriously messed up npm. What a noob mistake! But I got it all working fine now. I just need to learn how to get the challenges to render using the skeleton app! But I'll get it. In the meantime, check out my Colt's React course Hangman game I have on Netlify!

Sassy!

Finished the Sass section of Free Code Camp's Front End Libraries Certification course this morning. Didn't take long, as I have already studied (and slightly used!) Sass before. Interesting how you can use loops! I really need to use morning time to code. I'm caffeinated and ready to rock! I'm going to try to work on FCC every day to keep me frosty, in addition to my other projects. My first project will be my new portfolio page! Thinking about using Gatsby. Then hosting. Back to Digital Ocean? Probably.

First Post!

Just a quick one: I renewed my name domain, michaelrobards.com. I also bought mikerodev.com. Both from namecheap.com. mikerodev looks and sounds a bit wonky, but I like it, and will use it. Haven't decided which domain will host what. Possibly blog on dev and portfolio on name. Maybe both on both! Now get those pages up!
