    Solving Problems By Building Your Own Tools with Eve Porcello, Co-Founder of Moon Highway

    This episode features an interview with Eve Porcello, software engineer, instructor, author, and co-founder of Moon Highway.

She has taught JavaScript, GraphQL, and React workshops to tech professionals for nearly a decade and is a frequent speaker at conferences.

So I think building something that is somewhat practical, or maybe even just for a single user app, is nice because you'll run into problems that you don't in a nice little clean edged tutorial. So building something is super important, I feel like, and I try to not break that rule.” – Eve Porcello ------------------- Links: Twitter - Follow Eve Eve’s GraphQL Newsletter Visit Moon Highway Twitter - Follow Cassidy Twitter - Follow Zach The Dev Morning Show (At Night) YouTube Page

A lot of the times, we want to build something and the intent is, ‘This is how I would do it.’ But at the end of the day, that's rarely the case. It's important to just keep that in mind and sometimes you just exercise a little bit of empathy, put some empathy into your work. And that can go a long way into removing some biases that we all have.” – Alexis Morin ------------------- Links: Visit Interaction 23 Twitter - Follow Alexis Twitter - Follow Cassidy Twitter - Follow Zach The Dev Morning Show (At Night) YouTube Page

For some people, that's a really good direction to go. I've always been non-traditional in the way I think about things and do things, and so, very rigid schooling never really resonated with me. But, it depends. It depends on your personality. Some people are better served to have a more rigorous path. It definitely hasn't been easy, so I don't recommend it unless you have a personality like me.” – Jeri Ellsworth ------------------- Links: Visit Tilt Five’s Website Twitter - Follow Jeri Twitter - Follow Cassidy Twitter - Follow Zach The Dev Morning Show (At Night) YouTube Page
