Frontend Technical Interview Prep

EDIT: Well this has been linked now so just an FYI this is still TBD. Feel free to comment if you have suggestions for improvements. Also here is an unrolled Twitter thread of a lot of the tips I talk about on here.

Learn Go in ~5mins

This is inspired by A half-hour to learn Rust and Zig in 30 minutes.

Basics

Your first Go program as a classical "Hello World" is pretty simple:

First we create a workspace for our project:

	(function (context, trackingId, options) {
	const history = context.history;
	const doc = document;
	const nav = navigator \|\| {};
	const storage = localStorage;
	const encode = encodeURIComponent;
	const pushState = history.pushState;
	const typeException = 'exception';
	const generateId = () => Math.random().toString(36);
	const getId = () => {

	/* eslint-disable no-unused-vars */
	/* eslint-disable no-else-return */

	// JSX constructor, similar to createElement()
	export const h = (type, props, ...children) => {
	return {
	type,
	// Props will be an object for components and DOM nodes, but a string for
	// text nodes
	props,

	const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
	const { createCanvas, loadImage } = require('canvas')
	const mustache = require('mustache')
	var fs = require('fs');
	const fsExtra = require('fs-extra')

	let MAX_URLS = 50;

	let TEMPLATE = fs.readFileSync('template.html', 'utf8');
