I worked along with 3 other new developers on a group project to build a clone of the popular photo sharing website Unsplash. I worked on the front end of the site, building out the UI in HTML and Sass, and working with another developer on using Vue.js as the front end framework.
Working on a large scale project with other developers was very different from anything I'd done before, and the experience really developed my skills - especially communication. I learned the value of Git, and gained an insight into the requirements of working in a real development team.

I managed to secure a week long placement at London startup, Companify, which provides a one-size-fits-all, B2B SaaS product that solves every operational problem you can think of.
During the week I spent a lot of time shadowing one of the senior developers, and worked on some smaller pieces such as some new UI components they were developing. It was a fantastic experience to see the day to day workings of a professional development team, and it confirmed for me that that is the environment I want to work in.

Free Code Camp has become a staple resource for anyone wanting to learn Javascript, and I am proud to say that I completed the Front End Certificate at the beginning of this year. The excercises, challenges and projects were perfect for practising everything I had been learning, and the program really cemented my JS skills.

Over the last two months of 2017, I completed the Full Stack Javascript Track on Treehouse, which takes you through from the very basic of Javscript - loops, arrays etc. - to more advanced concepts and using Javascript on the server. It gave me a great overview of the modern JavaScript environment, and was a good base on which to learn Vue.js.
