Details
This project was created in 2016 as part of the freeCodeCamp program, which provided a free platform for individuals without a computer science background to learn front-end development. The program included a series of challenges similar to those found on LeetCode, as well as tasks specific to front-end development, all required for certification. You can view the project requirements here. I started this project during my final quarter at De Anza College because I was bored at the time. Little did I know that pursuing this certification would reignite my passion for front-end development, a field I have continued to explore ever since.
The challenge is designed to assess the learner's ability to fetch data and utilize the D3 library to display the data on screen. This heat map project is one of the few instances where I worked with the D3 library, which is why I would not say I am familiar with D3 library. However, if I have a chance to work with it again, I believe I can manage well.
