What is a Code Buddy Club?

  • It's similar to a book club but uses free courses and tutorials instead of books.
  • Participants are free to code independently, or to pair program.
  • Meet on discord to share progress, provide support, and help with debugging.
  • Each course should take roughly 1 to 5 weeks to complete.
  • Some weeks have two shorter courses
  • It's a really relaxed, supportive, and social atmosphere.

Notes

  1. If your Git skills are rusty, need an upgrade, or you just want to improve them the free Egghead.io course Practical Git for Everyday Professional Use is highly recommended either before the first week of Code Buddy, or during the first week when we focus on Git and GitHub.
  2. If you want to dive deeper into Auth0 the free Egghead.io course Custom Authentication Flows for Modern Applications with Auth0 Actionsby Will Johnson is just 32 minutes long
  3. **Lazar Nikolov is a Toronto JS member! **
    1. Lazar has said he'll be a guest host for at least one of these meetings!
    2. His website and discord server is Creatures.dev
    3. His Build a Full Stack Blog with Astro course on Egghead.io is well worth a month of paid Egghead pro ($25 USD).
      1. Both Sami and Liz have completed it.
      2. Marco is redoing his blog with Astro after Liz and Sami's experience.
  4. Additional resource for the to Command Line Power User weeks for Windows users
    1. Because that course focuses on MacOS
    2. Customize your Windows Terminal14 min
