# FAC
I (somehow) made it to FAC13 😊🎉, and these are just notes based on the materials covered ([the original FAC coursebook here](https://github.com/foundersandcoders/master-reference/tree/master/coursebook))
## Pre course
* [Pre course notes](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/precourse.markdown) - (mostly based on the [pre course FAC materials](https://github.com/foundersandcoders/master-reference/tree/master/coursebook/precourse))
## Recommended Materials
* [FAC recommended materials](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/recommended-materials.md), based off [this repo](https://github.com/foundersandcoders/recommended-materials)
## Weeks 1-9
Learning the fundamentals, each week completing a mini project in teams of four based on objectives.
* [Week One](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/weekOne.md) - Accessibility week. Project: making [a simple Portfolio One Pager](https://github.com/fac-13/plhh)
* [Week Two](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/weekTwo.md) - Testing using [NPM Tape](https://www.npmjs.com/package/tape). Project: [To do app](https://github.com/fac-13/PLHH-ToDo) using TDD.

* [Week Four](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/weekFour.md) - Node week. Project: [website with autocomplete](https://github.com/fac-13/vithAutocomplete) - XHR request from the front end to a JSON data file in the backend server (that we set up)
* [Week Five](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/weekFive.md) - Node week two. Project: [website](https://github.com/fac-13/jeth) with an XHR request from the front end to back end, and then the back end server makes an API call.
* [Week Six](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/weekSix.md) - Databases. Project: [a dynamic web app](https://github.com/fac-13/HEII-topics) which uses data from a database (connected to via a node.js server).
* [Week Seven](https://github.com/helenzhou6/FAC-Notes/blob/master/weekSeven.md) - User authentication. Project: continuation from the [week six project](https://github.com/fac-13/HEII-topics), but also includes user registration and authentication.
