In the Lab
Simeon coached Leigh & Kristopher as they worked on Javascript track on exercism.
Initially we tried installing exercism on Chromebook, which requires:
Access command line via CTRL + alt + T
To run Linux on Chromebook, install Crouton, or Cloud9
Ultimately we used a laptop with exercism installed. To-Do: gather notes on how to install exercism on Chromebook to add to Getting Started Guide!
Holly, Gregor, worked on Javascript exercism track. Michael worked on Python on exercism. 😈 🐍
Nisa worked on personal projects while updating Xcode.
