  1. I really appreciate how this fella always seems like he's having the best time in these videos. Love it. Always putting out contagiously positive, straight-up giddy vibes, which I didn't realize I was missing until I found this channel. It's perfect for learning this kind of abstract and information-dense material, especially for someone like me, who has a learning disability (ADHD/ADD). It can be debilitating if I forget to set my alarms (which are meant to break-up any prolonged periods of distraction) or don't happen to be in a state of hyperfocus (which only results from finding something so mentally stimulating that it meets the threshold for something worthy of commanding my full attention, at which point a switch in my ADHD brain is flipped and temporarily disables 99% of my disability's symptoms and basically causes me to channel the Buddha and maintain focus). Talk about getting side-tracked. Anywayyyyyyyyyyyy, my point is that this gregarious fellow's style of teaching never fails to keep me interested in, and actively engaged with, the material being covered. Most channels that cover this stuff just do dry, monotone code-along tutorials from a computer chair and rarely provide more than a shallow explanation (e.g. reciting a condensed or verbatim summary straight out of the docs) of what the code they're writing actually does. Rarely do they go into what it doesn't do, what other technologies it interacts with, why it works, or last but not least (and IMHO one of the most important things a teacher who knows their craft will include in their lessons) why it's actually really cool and worth getting hyped about learning and using. Homeboy has all that on lock and consistently delivers, so for me, stumbling upon this channel was like stumbling upon a jolly oasis in a mundane desert. Great teacher, great content, great channel. 10/10. Subscribed. All aboard the coding train, let's go. return 0;

  2. OMG this was awesome!!! Finally understanding promises ALREADY helped me solve a key issue in my application, and now I can CLEARLY see all the problems and BUGSSSSSSSS I can avoid with this!!! THANKS for clearly and awesomely explaining this!!!
