Developing the first component
:bulb: Start small then build big!
Let's look back at the advice we got from the previous step: "start small then build big." Your goal is to get something working - not to developing your final project in 1 week.
Begin by just having one working component of the project. Ex:
Press a button on your webpage and receive information
Create a working Azure Function that can return information
After that's complete and tested, begin building onto that with more and more features!
Committing code
:exclamation: Best practices for commiting code is to commit it constantly. Any time you make a change, commit the change.
:question: Why?
Every time you develop something that works, commit and push it immediately. This is so that if/when your code breaks due to a bug, you can easily revert back to the latest working commit. It also shows a history of how you have worked on your code.
:bulb: Tip:: You want to name the commit accurately to the changes you have made so that they are easy to search through later.
