Hey Max, great video. It would be better if you could make playlists on your channel

Thanks for the video! I had a question though. Is there any reason why we don't use a Boolean value for the completed value? Then in the update section we could do 'UPDATE tasks SET completed = !completed WHERE id = ?' Would this be some sort of a security issue and using a '?' is safer against malicious attacks?

Hmmm... I would like to see something that uses an existing API like instagram or twitter to make a bot, game or something cool.

After this three videos I know how an API works, but don't know how to handle other APIs.

Finally! I was waiting for this upload. Thank you! :D
btw, I downloaded this project on github and started from scratch using your codes as reference, I use jQuery with sass for practice purposes. I'm wondering if i can upload it to your project, I'm kinda new to git and doesn't fully understand how things work.

[dipanshuc]

Hey max why don't you make a tutorial for making online pole using Js.

[renduck]

could you please tell me where to get the source code for .bash_profile??

[avrumy]

Why didn't you create a function to call the api and pass in post/get, the target and what to send back

[champolot]

Hey Max, is it possible to ask for the source code? TIA

This video has a lot of bad practices. You were going good up until this one. You should not skip good practices for the sake of simplicity, especially when you're doing a tutorial.
