Listen to S3E4 here on DEV:
On this week's episode, we covered a topic that many folks here in the DEV community are very passionate about: the value of imagery and analogies when it comes to teaching and learning code.
To say that software development can be tricky is a massive understatement — visualizations and reframing the complex can be one of the strongest tools in your kit when you're trying to wrap your head around a new programming challenge.
@jess and I were lucky to have two guests that understand this concept thoroughly:
Kevin Kononenko, Product Manager at Tulip Interfaces and creator of the CodeAnalogies Blog
-
Lydia Hallie, Software Engineering Contractor at The Avo-coder
To get a sense of some of the visual value that Lydia serves up on DEV regularly, check out this 7-part "JavaScript Visualized" series.
