I love coding and what motivates me is problem-solving and preferably if it has an element of creativity.
I am a self-taught developer and work full-time as a front-end developer.
Location
Denmark 🇩🇰
Education
Bachelor in Nutrition and health (I know not super relevant to my current line of work!)
My problem with the 'this' keyword is that you basically go against what is normally considered best coding practices.
'This' can refer to different elements or objects in the code, where with functions, objects etc. you always strive to use descriptive unique naming. I know 'this' is an integrated part of modern Javascript, but I can't shake the feeling that it introduces some level of confusion and decrease readability of the code. This is not bad practice, but to me it will never really feel like the cleanest solution either.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
