}

 function showMenu () {
    ...//amazing code!

Depends...

So first we should focus on learning the basics

Then we can ask ourselves:

 what am I trying to solve?

And then, what is my type of job?

 

"Types" of work that

Frontend Developers can have

Styling (CSS)

Layout (Lets do Puzzles!)

 

React

 

Vue

Angular

Svelte

... & more

State

 

Redux

 

MobX

Vuex

....

Async

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How can we navigate this FE world?

BlackBox

Example

import anime from "animejs";

let duration = 2e3;

function animate(el, e) {
  anime({
    targets: el,
    backgroundColor: "#b30000",
    duration: duration,
    translateX: [0, 250], // from 0 to 250
    delay: 250,
    direction: "alternate",
    loop: true
  });
}

export { animate, duration };

Why is it important?

 

Remember we have a community and documentation!

Help!

What if we extend this concept into knowledge boxes! 

Building things with Blackboxes

You don't need to know

EVERYTHING

So let's build things!
