But, before deciding to dive right into Js, I made sure I remembered the basics of HTML and CSS, which I did.<br> Today I learnt how to run Js programs in the browser. The console.log()command . After that, I read about variables and concluded that instead of using var, only use const and let, give variable names that are easy to remember, and I was able to complete the assignments by the end of the lesson.<br> Lastly was numbers. <br> It's all about basic math, assignments, operands, integers, floating points, doubles, unary, and binary.<br> So far so good #💪</p> Daniel Wanjala Sun, 22 May 2022 16:51:38 +0000 https://dev.to/wanjala/my-first-post-5hj5 https://dev.to/wanjala/my-first-post-5hj5 <p>I'm new to programming/development and intend to utilize this platform to document my learning process. &nbsp;I'll be updating this page every day to keep track of my progress.
