 What's up team? It is your biggest fan the real Casadero here back again It's been a few days and I figured that I should give you guys some sort of update on what's going on So in one of the previous videos, I talked about doing a 365 day Coding challenge and then inside of that 365 days I was gonna build an app from start to finish and then put it online and market it and the drive traffic to it and And do all this stuff and I'm still working on that and this is an update on how on how this I also talked about in one of the previous videos about the direction I want to take the channel and there's some different things I want to do and and so the This channel the real Casadero this is this is this is me Talking about that the things the things that I'm doing the things that I'm working on and they're all software related They're all code related. They're all marketing related. They're all sales related They're all business related. They're all life related The ultimate goal is success I want people to come here and be inspired and be motivated like hey if this guy's doing this thing Then I can go out and I can do this thing and then you turn off the video and you go And you do whatever that thing is but what I want to do is when I come here and I talk to you guys I want to drop some real knowledge and talk about some stuff that that's been on my mind and And how I'm working through those kinds of things so so what's going on, right is I have never I have never built a full-scale application anything it well It's and so I guess I guess there's it so let's talk about scale So let's talk about scale there. It there are little apps, right? There's so you so you start off with a website and this HTML and CSS and then maybe you want to click a button And you want to move something from here to there? That's you had some JavaScript and boom now you got that functionality. That's an app That is that application application means that there's some sort of logic somewhere that has to happen For for for every action. There is an equal well because it's code and it's magic and we're wizards So it doesn't have to be an equal and opposite reaction like we can click a button here and execute a trade Somewhere on the stock market that'll make us millions of dollars. That's not an equal in an opposite reaction Now at some point time that may become the case, but I think maybe right now it isn't but I think you guys understand what I'm saying but the deal is is that is that every The what defines an app is is is Something happens. We give we give some sort of input and we're giving some sort of output So like the internet in itself is one big application like we go www.google.com And boom something fires across the internet it hits a server that hits another server hits another server and then boom Google pops up and then we're able to search right so we have just used an application now when we land on a web page And all it is is some text The tip the about me and this that in the third and that's it. That's just that's just a web page So I built web pages and I built apps applications small applications, but I haven't built anything All the way front in and back in I've interacted with that I haven't built anything where you go on to a website and you click a button and And it takes you to a registration page and you register and then that information is put in the database And it comes back and an account is created and a profile is created and then boom You got people on your deal doing profiles and stuff. I've used these things I've built portions of them, but I haven't built anything from the ground up So that's what I've been doing over the last week and it's been it's been hard. It's been hard but What's amazing is the amount of stuff that I've been learning while doing it because I understand HTML CSS JavaScript I understand all those things very well. I understand computer computer science web technology I work through one of the largest tech companies in the world. I understand this stuff But it wasn't until I started to dig in and really build this thing that that a lot of stuff started to click And it started to make sense even more sense than it's ever made before to me like There's a bunch of stuff that you running it running to when you when you're learning the JavaScript language programming language that That until you apply it it won't really it won't really make sense like a sink a wait or callbacks or Promises Higher order functions And there's there are all kinds of other recursion all kinds of other things that You read them in a book and The concepts seem clear and you're like hey, I understand this but then when you go to apply me like oh, no, man This doesn't make any sense That like one of the big things for me was callback functions because I had bit I had I learned how to write functions and all these different in in in Fortran in C sharp No in Fortran C plus plus Java Python Java script I learned how I learned how to write how to learn how to make functions, but then you got this function that's a callback function and Unless you understand like the underlying core concepts of a program of a programming language or just how programming languages work in general then that stuff kind of doesn't It doesn't it doesn't It doesn't make sense like make sense like it could until you like get into it and then you're like, oh, all right So a callback is really a callback function is really just a function That feeds another function somewhere in the programming languages library this function Or or function or an anonymous function that I've created and then that and then that that that library does whatever Is it is it does and it returns me back some information? But before returns me back that information it has to execute something else that I say execute So I'm saying I want this information back But before you give it to me I need you to finish this other thing and then with that things done then give me the information back That's that that's the essence of a callback function in here in six minutes It's all but isn't it's not impossible to explain But you won't know how to use them just by me talking and if you're still confused I absolutely understand positively But that's that's what I've been working on and that's that's what's going on. So I've written the app. I've got the whole um I've got the registration The the registration page is done all of the logic for the registration page is done now where I'm having trouble isn't styling it And so I have I know how to use bootstrap But I'm trying this new thing. What is it called? beautify it's like a styling a styling framework for for view and I ran into some issues so I I set this thing up and The elements on the page are not displaying it in the right way So I go and I'm reading through all this documentation because that's what most of coding gives is is is write some code Run into a bug and then spend days trying to fix this bug like I have one bug I I spent nine hours trying to figure this thing out and it was literally just a Forward slash that I had missed in one of the addresses that was causing the whole application to break a day later I ran into an issue where it was a bunch of spelling errors like I was looking for I had all these requirements in my app That I that I wrote and then when I added them as as modules to to other parts of the app the Software was saying it couldn't find this stuff And it was it was all spelling errors and typos So you you spend a lot of time looking for capital letters and lowercase letters and commas and forward slashes and backslashes and all this stuff Also while I was going through this whole process. I began to learn a bunch of stuff about visual studio code That I didn't even know about and it's one of the it's again It's one of those things were like you can hear about it You can read about it But until you have a situation where you can go and apply it it doesn't really make sense And but when you're able when you run into that situation where you can apply the things that you've learned Then it starts to stick in your brain and your brain starts to go. This is important because He or she you or me right? We're we're we're spending so much energy on this thing in the brain It wants to the brain is here to protect us the brain is the brain is here to protect the body and the body's here to protect the brain and When we start spending a lot of time thinking about stuff and really dwelling on stuff and mulling over stuff The brain goes this is important and it starts to store this stuff away in In is in the inside of the memory banks or whatever like I'm no I'm not a neuroscientist I'm a computer scientist so I can tell you about how all this stuff works But I will tell you this from what I've read and what I and what I and what I know from experience Working working on computers and working at one of the largest tech companies in the world is that The brain is not too much different from this computer and we can program them both And so that that's what I've been going through for the last few days now I have an Instagram up the web dev construct if you wanted if you want to follow the progress on Instagram and what I do Is I just drop an image and then I you know I drop a you know a few lines of text about what about About what I'm working on what I'm struggling with so if you guys want to if you guys want to follow on Instagram That is perfect I just thought I should come here and drop you guys some sort of update and let you know what's going on and I'm putting together I'm putting together a monster course a killer course for you the web So I'm gonna have a website and a landing page and all this stuff for you guys to go and sign up and pre-register and all this stuff But not yet because what I want to do is I want to finish this app I want to get this app to a place where I'm comfortable and then I can build out this other stuff The goal was to have the app done in in 40 days Well in 50 days, but I've given myself a deadline. It's a shorter deadline But also what I want to do is is I want to I Want to put I want to start producing content that you guys could use to To get to the next level wherever that may be some of you like you're just starting out You've never coded before and in you're looking for someplace to start some of you Some of you are light years ahead of me and it doesn't even it doesn't even matter But you just you just like to hang out here and you like to watch my content anyway, and that's cool So so I really I really want to I really want to launch. I really want to launch the course But I got some other stuff that I did I'm working on right now, but that it that's been my journey over the last few days As far as coding goes and it's it's been a it's been a lot of it's been a lot of aha moments a lot of debugging a lot of a lot of scratching my head and wondering what the hell is going on because this shit working It doesn't work and right now. So I've like I said, I've got the functionality all built out for the registration page But now I'm going through and I'm trying to add some styling to it And once I once I once I figure out beautify Beautify and how that all works Then then it should be it should be really easy for me to go through and build out the rest of the parts of the application I will tell you this right like I'm not doing this from scratch off the top of my head. I'm following a tutorial from from a guy on Free code camp and what I'll do is I'll I'll actually drop a link Below but I'm documenting every step in the process and I'm going through and I'm I'm really Mastering the concepts that are being used in building this application. So um, so yeah, so that's the update That's what's going on. My goal is to drop at least one of a video like this Every other day and then on Instagram to give give you guys some sort of update Once a day and I'll put the link in the I'll put the link in the notes below But this is the journey team and so this this channel is about is about coding marketing selling it and about the Process that I'm going through and building a startup and launching the course and building a business and all this stuff And then and then I'll bring some other YouTube channels that are gonna focus Hardcore concrete one very specific aspects of each of those things One one aspect is gonna be code. Then we're gonna have the aspect that's marketing And yeah, we're just gonna go from there. We're gonna keep building team. It's been about 12 minutes I don't want to hold you guys up. I know it's rough to watch a 12 minute video I try to be as lively as I can and keep you guys engaged and keep you guys motivated But I understand like 12 minutes a long time for some people But if you made it here to the end, that's fantastic fantastic If you made it here to the end that means you like me and you like what I'm saying and you think that at some point I'm gonna say something valuable that may change your life.
