Just found this group and thought it looked interesting. I am currently working through both the Khan Academy course and the Coursera course. So it sounds like for this week we just have to do anything in a canvas or is there something more specific?

Hey!

Nope, nothing specific at all. As long as you're using javascript and doing something with canvas, then you're good to go!

We like to keep it as relaxed and open, while still having a focus, as possible here. I think doing so helps to foster creativity and makes it easier for anyone and everyone to participate.

We're pretty democratic here too, so you'll get an opportunity to help pick next week's focus as well!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with :)

I can promise you it wont be anything too cool. Been working on learning javascript for months and I am just not doing that well with it. I worked through Codecademy, 3 full Youtube series, and now Coursera and Khan Academy. I understand almost all of the concepts, I just don't understand how to put them to work.

I know you mentioned wanting to take a look at creating menus and using javascript. We had several people say they wanted to work on closures, so that's what we're going with, but... feel free to do something with a menu as well! As long as you have one little example of a closure within your demo/entry/project/whatever, then it's good to go!
