Hi there! My name is Omar and welcome to my learning journal.
After several months of learnig the frontend developer path, I'he made some incredible projects that in the beggining I though it was imposiblefor me to make it.
How I stay commited to learning
I graduated from UTEP as a Electrical & computer engineer, but since I had a hard time trying to find job related to what I have studied I decided to try another option.
Since the part of programing in my carrer was interesting I though of some coding related option
How I got started
I started in this year (2023), no later than february whatching the basics of html and CSS and then I got introduced to JavaScript. I didn't have a path to follow until I found Scrimba.
Srimba is a platform that offers different courses, there was the full Frontend Developer path course that helped me a lot in my journey.

Movie Watchlist
My second project working with an API, this time I needed to send to the API the search of a movie and the API sent me information of 10 movies that matched the search. First I tried working with the localStore of the device and worked, but for a reason when uploaded to the internet it doesn't work, so I needed to find another way of making it work. That's when I learned about the in-built database in the brower indexedDB.
