💛 JavaScript tip 💛 You can use a BroadcastChannel to send messages between browsing contexts (tabs, windows, etc.) that share the same origin. You can use this to sync your frontend state across multiple browser tabs a user has open, no matter where they make changes.

It can't be stated often enough: Learn to test your software as soon as possible. Testing is an integral part of software development. The sooner you learn it, the faster and longer you'll be able to reap its benefits!

💛 JavaScript explanation 💛 flatMap basically reduces the dimensions of an array by one. You usually use it to return an array from your arrow function, which is then flattened so you get a 1-dimensional array as a result.

Even if you start with web development, you aren't stuck with that choice. You can still get into anything later. Be it DevOps, Embedded, Machine Learning, Data Engineering, or else. The only important thing is to learn enough fundamentals that a switch becomes possible!

I think I'll create a few more animations with protopie, but if it continues clicking for me, I might refresh my Creative Cloud subscription and see what I can do with After Effects. 🤔

Worked on an animation to explain flatMap the whole day, but I'm still not satisfied with the outcome. 😖 Will need to improve it before I release it into the wild. Kudos to all animation, that's a lot of stuff you have to do. 😅

After a 5 digit follower count is finally in sight and the next milestone to reach, I'm currently thinking about a giveaway when I hit 10k. 🤔 Could become a larger one, but I think it's good to give something additional back to all you awesome people! Stay tuned!
