We're busy people who learn to code, then practice by building projects for nonprofits. Learn Full-stack JavaScript, build a portfolio, and get great references with our open source community.

I love the sound of your keyboard dude, takes me back many years. Clunky and loud so everyone knows that i'm workin!!!

U said of removing duplicate in code...then told not using flags and then made 2 functions with almost duplicate code? Which practice should I follow!

@8:31 vice-versa for function names is more logical (createTempFile in temp folder.. ) 🙂

So you have a variable portfolio that can contain a GitHub link. Very clean indeed...

Thank you, great job. I will be aware of these things for any future code I write :)

[alimfuzzy]

are your create files and your create temp files reversed? i.e. swap the names around.

Beau, what's your take on ternary operators with respect to "clean" code? I've seen the complaint that they aren't as readable as ifs, but I happen to like them (as long as there's no nesting or really weird stuff going on). For example at about 7:00 lines 104 to 108 could be,

const portfolio = employee.type === 'manager' ? employee.getMBAProjects() : employee.getGithubLink();

and you would retain the use of const. But, would this be considered "clean"? As a newer programmer, these nuances are tough to figure out, so thanks for these videos.

Great content, but I didn't understand the last example

At 1:32, emailClient is still filtering the records, maybe one could directly get an array of active clients and call email functions on it

[Dystn]

why is the variable name for the const not in all caps?

[sixtyone]

Ugh, the “one level of abstraction” was very badly explained. Confusing :/

[TheMKilo]

createFile() and createTmpFile() ... so what u say about DRY ? )

[FredChevitarese]

Hi! I think sometimes you speak very fast :P
But thanks for the videos :)

Awesome video, but mad at the ear-rape at the end...
