Run Cargo In Watch Mode With Cargo-Watch!

5/8/2020

Some people despise developing with unit tests, but I prefer to use them and leverage them to the allow me to quickly push new code and be more confident that it works! I love doing TDD (test-driven development) which inherently involves continuously re-running the tests, and regardless of what language you are coding in, being able to run your tests in "watch mode" makes TDD faster and easier than without it!

How To Setup Exercism CLI To Use Your Own Github Repository

5/1/2020

This guide demonstrates one way to setup your locally computer for solving exercises on Exercism.io. When working on your solutions to exercism, why not version you code and save it to git just as you would any "real" project you plan to deploy? With Github, you can make a public repo for free that can contain all of your solutions, plus you'll be associating this nice code with your Github profile and be getting those green squares on Github! Excercism projects make excellent code to have on your Github account because every exercise itself is it's own little self-contained, fully unit tested and peer-reviewed bit of clean code that does something correctly! You can take a look at my Exercism-Solutions repo to see how awesome it is to have all of your Exercism solutions there in a Github repo. ?
