React Javascript Typescript Ultimate Fundamentals For Interview Preparation
/ 3 min read
Recently I have been applying for frontend contract positions. Also I am building a lot of cool projects, so thought this is my chance to strengthen my Javascript React Typescript Fundamentals.
Obviously I started reading the documentation straight forward. Then I realized AI is new this time with me. Let me take leverage to learn the absolute best fundamental concepts.
So I started using Claude 3 Haiku. Below is the prompt I used to generate the resources.
I am working on giving a very good interview for a frontend contract position and it requires me to have good broad understanding on JS, React, TS So I need you to help me prepare for it. Also elaborate this with more important and fundamentals to make my understanding stronger. Give links for each.
Check Javascript, Typescript and React here.
