Week 3

I Need Help With:

Retrieving data from strapi still takes me some time but that's something with practice that I can get better at

What went well?

I spent majority of this week going over javascript and practicing some courses online (I wanted to be more confident for when we start React). I was feeling a bit overwhelmed and I didn't know how to tie all the courses together but I'm much confident now. The intermediate course on codeacademy helped a lot.
