What's inside CodeSweetly

  1. Overview of JavaScript Module Systems

    While several module systems exist in JavaScript, ES Modules (introduced in the 2015 ECMAScript standard) is the official language standard. Other legacy or alternative systems include:

    • Asynchronous Module Definition (AMD)
    • CommonJS Modules
    • Universal Module Definition (UMD)
  2. Overview of react-image-grid-gallery

    The react-image-grid-gallery is a responsive React component used to display a grid of images. It includes built-in lightbox functionality for viewing images in a focused overlay.
    npm install react-image-grid-gallery
  3. Overview of CSS animation properties

    CSS animations are controlled by a set of properties that describe attributes like name, duration, direction, and iteration. The available properties are:

    • animation-name: The name of the @keyframes rule.
    • animation-duration: Time to complete one cycle.
    • animation-timing-function: The speed curve of the animation.
    • animation-delay: Delay before the animation starts.
    • animation-iteration-count: Number of times the animation repeats.
    • animation-direction: Whether the animation plays forward, backward, or alternates.
    • animation-play-state: Whether the animation is running or paused.
    • animation-fill-mode: How styles are applied before and after the animation.
    • animation: Shorthand property for the above.
  4. Overview of React Image Grid Gallery v3.1.0 features

    React Image Grid Gallery v3.1.0 introduces several performance and UX enhancements for image galleries:

    • Lightbox Thumbnails: Adds preview images at the bottom of the lightbox for easier navigation.
    • Image Captions: Supports displaying descriptions for images within the lightbox.
    • Lazy Loading: Improves initial page load speed and reduces network overhead by deferring the loading of non-critical images.
    • Resolution Switching: Optimizes bandwidth by providing the browser with hints to load the most appropriate image resolution based on the user's screen width.
  5. Overview of common programming paradigms

    A programming paradigm is a communication style or coding pattern used to instruct a computer. It is not a specific language or syntax, but rather a tactical approach to solving problems. The three most common paradigms are:

    1. Procedural Programming (PP): An imperative style that instructs the computer to follow a specific sequence of steps (procedures) to complete a task.
    2. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): An imperative style based on creating objects that encapsulate both data (properties/attributes) and procedures (functions/behaviors).
    3. Functional Programming (FP): A declarative style that focuses on stating the functions (tasks) the computer should accomplish, relying heavily on pure functions to minimize bugs and avoid mutating external state.
  6. Overview of JavaScript primitive data types

    JavaScript primitive data types are basic values that are neither properties nor methods. They are used as the building blocks for variables, properties, methods, and functions. There are seven primitive values in JavaScript: Number, String, Boolean, Undefined, Null, Symbol, and BigInt.
  7. Understand the roles of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

    Web development relies on three distinct languages to present, style, and control a document:

    • HTML (HyperText Markup Language): An annotation language used to describe the structure and data of a document.
    • CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): A styling language used to define the visual presentation of HTML elements.
    • JavaScript: A commanding language used to program behavior and instruct HTML elements to perform specific actions.
  8. Understand CSS Grid column and row lines

    CSS grid lines are the dividing lines created by the browser when grid-template-columns or grid-template-rows are defined on a grid container.

    • Grid Column Lines: Created on the column (block) axis. Numbering starts at 1 from the column-start edge (e.g., top-left for left-to-right languages like English, or top-right for right-to-left languages like Arabic).
    • Grid Row Lines: Created on the row (inline) axis. Numbering starts at 1 from the row-start edge.
  9. Understand the role of an Internet Service Provider (ISP)

    An Internet Service Provider (ISP) is a company that provides the necessary services and infrastructure to connect personal and business devices (phones, desktops, televisions, etc.) to the internet.
  10. Understand the difference between function arguments and the arguments object

    In JavaScript, an argument is the actual value passed to a function's parameter when the function is invoked. The arguments object is a built-in, array-like object available inside every non-arrow function that contains all the values passed to that function during its invocation.
    // 'Oluwatobi' and 'Sofela' are arguments
    function myName(firstName, lastName) {
      return firstName + " " + lastName;
    }
    
    myName("Oluwatobi", "Sofela");
  11. Understand the difference between a Framework and a Library

    Frameworks and libraries are both reusable pieces of pre-written code used to accelerate application development, but they differ in their role within an application's architecture:

    • Framework: Acts as a ready-made skeletal structure and the primary support system for an application. It defines the basic structure and flow of the app.
    • Library: Acts as a modular tool or an add-on feature. It provides specific functionality that can be called upon as needed without dictating the overall structure of the application.
