While going through Flatiron's Pre-Work and part of Phase 1, I've been taking notes in a Moleskine. While it's my favorite way to retain information (I learn well by writing things down in my own handwriting) it definitely leaves much to be desired. Writing out JS by hand is a pain if you're trying to show yourself examples of the concept you're studying. It takes up a lot of paper very quickly with how many lines it takes up, and the hand cramps!
I've started to experiment with different ways to take notes while going through class. My newest method will be to keep notes organized in .js files that give examples of how different functions work. The latest concept I've gone over are Arrow Functions, so I built a file that shows progression from a regular function to a function expression then to an arrow function. It came in handy while doing my lab work, so I will likely continue this to see if it is helpful with more complex concepts.
Long term I'm hoping it will be a go-to resource of my own notes and code examples so that when I come across these concepts later on I have a file that I can go to if I'm having trouble.
