— As Junior? :)
I started working April last year (in PHP Symfony Framework and some AngularJS 1.x), had no idea of server side technology at that moment. I just knew HTML, CSS, JS, jQuery and some AngularJS.
Though today I am quite comfortable with PHP stack especially Symfony framework but still I will prefer a JS job no matter junior :)
— I need that! Tomorrow! Thanks :)
— Also, wow, I had no idea Array.values() was turned off in Chrome since 2016!!
— I just went to use it and was shocked!
— I made this:
// `Array.values()` Polyfill
// Returns a new Array Iterator object that contains the values for each index in the array.
if (!Array.prototype.hasOwnProperty("values")) { Object.defineProperty(Array.prototype, "values", {enumerable: false,
value: function* () { for (var value of this) {yield value;
}
}
});
}
— SO simple... and yet they disabled this... Whyyyyyy
— Weird
— Didn't know that was a thing
— But I normally use for..of anyway
— I need it because the functions in cdaTemplate are polymorphic, can use Arrays or NodeLists, and NodeLists have values()
— Instead of branching or setting up new boilerplate to handle the Arrays, I can just use the same code now :D
