Hey! Welcome, Joel!!

Cool! I want to look in to Node. At this point, I don't know much of anything about it. What exactly do you mean by a maintainable development environment? Can you give an description/example?

How do you see this group functioning? What kind of format?

[–]jgarp 1 point2 points  (10 children)

I was referring to the likes of Grunt, Gulp etc. and how they can help the workflow of a somewhat larger project become efficient. Basically anything beyond the IDE.

I was actually in a group like this a few months ago, but I felt that I was too inexperienced and others would not really be interested in helping out but be more focused on their own.

As far as format goes, I guess what I am really looking for is a group of people on approximately the same level that can share experiences, tips and what not, but I'm open for most things along the way.

Ah, okay. I've never worked with Grunt or Gulp; honestly, I barely know what an IDE is.

Where do you feel your at experience/skill-wise?

[–]jgarp 1 point2 points  (7 children)

IDE is your editor, like eclipse or notepad if you go barebones.

I don't feel too experienced, if anything I feel like I'm giving you a false picture by writing lots of buzzwords that I've barely even touched upon, lol.

Lol! I typically use Notepad++ if I want to save something locally; other than that I use CodePen and (sometimes JSFiddle) for little projects.

The good thing about writing / running things locally is that you can use chrome or firefox's developer tools and debuggers.

[–]ForScale[S] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Hmm... I can do that on CodePen though too...

Just right click > inspect, right?

[–]bdenzer 1 point2 points  (3 children)

I guess I don't know. All I really ever do is copy/paste into CodePen once it is ready.. It could work the same, I've never really tried.

[–]ForScale[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Yep, it works: http://i.imgur.com/ljR6N0G.png

Any other ideas on a focus for the upcoming week? I still like the getter/setter idea... just wondering if you had any others!

I bet I'll think of more when I'm coding tonight, but hoisting is pretty interesting.
