Prettier is an opinionated code formatter. It enforces a consistent style by parsing your code and re-printing it with its own rules that take the maximum line length into account, wrapping code when necessary. This will help keep our code looking nice and save the tedious work of formatting.

ESLint is a static code analysis tool for identifying problematic patterns found in JavaScript code. Rules in ESLint are configurable, and customized rules can be defined and loaded. ESLint covers both code quality and coding style issues. This will help reduce bugs as help ensure the quality of our code.

We have now learned quite a lot and practice does make perfect. Please follow the links below and complete the various exercises to reinforce your knowledge and learned techniques.

Using the Superstore Data Set, I would also like you to take some time to explore some additional Table Calculations in Tableau

Gulp is an open-source JavaScript toolkit used as a streaming build system in front-end web development. We will leverage Gulp to automate our various build tasks such as Obfuscation, Minifying our files, SCSS to CSS compilation.
