[Video] Live Coding Space Invaders in Javascript

Here’s another cool video I found that I thought I would share. It’s a really basic game, but she uses no frameworks or libraries and does the whole thing in front of a live audience in 30 minutes.

This was amazing. She made it look super simple! Whereas, my brain was making it far more complex.

Yeah, she probably did this 50 times before doing it on stage though. But, it wasn’t actually that complicated if you break it down.

It did make me realize that I should probably be using Javascript Objects and Namespaces much more than I did. Since I linked it, I’ve put a lot of time into becoming a much better JS Developer and I’ve learned a ton.

My brain hurts now. LOL

A few people at work said this, lol.
