Once again, we had the pleasure of co-organizing a programming meetup for women with our partner Qualtrics.
MEETUP DESCRIPTION
Did you know that a typical programmer spends much more time reading and debugging code than writing new code? Typical tutorials/courses do not cover this topic – we want to change that! During this 2-hour session, we will work together on real scenarios – presenting problems on a website, showing steps to understand and debug the problem, and demonstrating how to fix it. We will mainly focus on Chrome DevTools – a free tool available in the Chrome browser. Experienced programmers will share their knowledge, tips, and tricks useful in everyday work.
WHAT WE COVERED AND WHAT PARTICIPANTS LEARNED
- Introduction to Chrome DevTools
- Prototyping (Elements tab)
