Building User Interfaces and Functions with TypeScript and React
Delve into TypeScript generics and learn to build reusable functions and React components for searching, sorting, and filtering data, enhancing both business logic and UI efficiency.
Hi everyone! I've been a professional full stack software engineer for 7+ years, and I've been programming for many more. In 2014, I earned two separate degrees from Clarkson University: Mechanical Engineering and Physics. I continued at Cornell for my M.S. Degree in Mechanical Engineering. My thesis at Cornell was a technical software project where I first learned Bash and used a unique stack of Perl and Fortran, producing a publication in the scientific journal Combustion and Flame: "A novel atom tracking algorithm for the analysis of complex chemical kinetic networks". After opening up my first terminal while at Cornell, I fell in love with software engineering and have since learned a variety of frameworks, databases, languages, and design patterns, including TypeScript, .NET, JavaScript, Python, React, Redux, ABAP, SAPUI5 UI5, C#, PHP7, Postgresql, and Magento. I love building full stack apps as side projects! I'm happy to give back and teach what I've learned over the years, because I think software development is especially difficult these days, with all the new tools and frameworks that seem to come out daily. I don't want anyone to be intimated by this and I too struggle and reach out from time to time for help and mentoring. I try to make my courses as clear as possible so you don't get lost or confused.
