This week’s assignment was interesting because we basically had to refactor our basic HTML/CSS assignment from week 1 to use more advanced concepts using JavaScript on the Node.js runtime with Express and the faker package.
It became clear how much easier it would be to maintain a larger scale web project using JavaScript partials–instead of editing source code in multiple files, all you have to do is edit the associated partial!
While my submission for this week’s website assignment might not look much different from week 1’s, it is implemented using more sophisticated technology that enables it to be much more highly scalable.
