Javascript 30 notes for Day 15 ,17, and 20

Day 15 => Local Storage => GitHub


Well, all the data will eventually be in an array. And that array data will be turned into a big string.
Every time we add an item we run that populateList function. But it recreates the entire list, so be mindful of that.

ID = For

Ternary operator because any indication of the word checked will automatically check hte object in the list.

LocalStorage is in the browser, stored in the domain. It’s a key value until further configured, and the only option is strings




Day 17 => Article Replacement => GitHub
Featuring bands of my own design.

The replace() can take away articles for easier sorting. I wonder if there’s an option to take away vowels in words.

Many ways to make this thing;

return strip(a) > strip(b) ? 1 : -1
If all you’re doing in a function is returning something, you can use an implicit return;

const sortBands = bands.sort((a, b) =>  strip(a) > strip(b) ? 1 : -1);

(remove return and the } bracket)

if(strip(a) > strip(b)){

const sortBands = bands.sort((a, b) => {

.join(‘’) makes one big string instead of a lot of little strings with commas you can see.

Day 20 ==> Speech Modder

Speech Recognition! You have to have a server, but luckily there’s one included.
npm install
npm start

Different browsers run this capability with different things. Chrome uses Webkit Speech.

The speech continually adds to the paragraph. If you stop….

It makes a new one.

Not listening for clicks, but a ‘result’, and with start recognition, when you speak into the mic, things pop up in the console log via SpeechRecognitionEvent. There’s also a level of confidence listed that the machine has about what you said!

Part of my code involves this;

.map(result => result [0]
  .map(result => result.transcript))

and there should be a ) after the [0] but it’s placed below after transcript. I wondered if it worked, because it didn’t throw errors. It’s still kind of sloppy so I changed it.

It’s the very basics of something like Siri or Alexa

if(transcript.includes(‘Get the weather’)){
console.log(’Going to get Weather’);


and of course you’d have to program a function to actually pull from a website and display the information.

Making KPI Dashboards with PowerBI

 While this is the free tier, I cannot share or collaborate with others, nor can I publish content to other people's workspaces, but they will not stop me from screenshooting and recording these self-taught adventures,so! I'm doing this because I idly searched "Mattel careers" and "Information Technology", and seeing a bulletpoint saying the following: Analytical and reporting skills such as creating dashboards and establishing KPIs such as experience with PowerBI, Cognos, Tableau, and Google Data Lake/AWS is preferred And thought "Well, I've used Tableau, and I've heard about PowerBI,  even if its in-demandness is questionable , so how similar is it? And can I write about it?"  First, PowerBI (PIB) does have a downloadable, local version, but apparently Windows-only. I could download the .exe but I couldn't run it / drag it to applications on my MacBook.  Not a problem, we'll use the online SaaS version, and a dataset found here, ...

Connecting IoT Devices to a Registration Server (Packet Tracer, Cisco)

 If you're seeing this post, I'm helping you, and you probably have LI presence: React and share this post to help me in return.   In Packet Tracer, a demo software made by Cisco Systems. It certainly has changed a lot since 2016. It's almost an Olympic feat to even get started with it now, but it does look snazzy. This is for the new CCNA, that integrates, among other things, IoT and Automation, which I've worked on here before. Instructions here . I don't know if this is an aspect of "Let's make sure people are paying attention and not simply following blindly", or an oversight - The instructions indicate a Meraki Server, when a regular one is the working option here. I have to enable the IoT service on this server. Also, we assign the server an IPv4 address from a DHCP pool instead of giving it a static one. For something that handles our IoT business, perhaps that's safer; Getting a new IPv4 address every week or so is a minimal step against an...

AWS Infrastructure Composer

 A very brief look. The text says; Drag and drop any CloudFormation resource on a visual canvas Connect and configure enhanced components to automatically build IaC for an application architecture Seamlessly transition between authoring workflows visually with Step Functions Workflow Studio and defining resources with Infrastructure Composer Integrate your browser with your project through “local sync” or use Composer in the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio Code In 2019 there was a similar tool to build infrastructure that would be converted to code. Nice to know they bought it back. When you enter the Composer, it's a blank space with a background reminiscent to the screen for Cloud Formation. Infrastructure Objects are to the left in a drawer;  I've selected a bucket that I can rename. I went to connect a bucket to a Dynamo DB Table, and it's not available yet. It also lost a bucket somewhere in the ether of the GUI. Ah well. I couldn't find the EC2 instance in the...
