Frequently Asked Questions
Why do companies put impetus on finding React/JavaScript developers that are comfortable dealing with data?
When you get down to the nitty gritty of every shop that has a server side guy or data for that matter (almost every company) the most painful integration point is always the handshake between the server and the client. Often in smaller shops and teams it turns into a blame game of who is responsible for the communication not working. One of the critical ways you stand out among any developer is knowing how to troubleshoot so you really know if something is wrong with your app or the server (instead of pointing at the other side terrified you will be found to be the problem). This course will unravel the most common data entry points showing you exactly how to deal with them and how to process them. Not only will you know how to work with a variety of data types you will know what to do with them by building out compelling data visualizations that feed out of live data.
