My Study Notes Repository

Jump To Notes Index

Why a Repository for Study Notes?

When taking code courses online, I learned a lot of new languages quickly. Hands-on experience was brief and some info was difficult to retain.

Once all my courses were complete, I decided to review what I learned using better study methods. The idea to make a repository came from a reddit post by u/Cylvher.

Goals

  • Practice using dev tools while I learn to code.
  • Develop a method of retaining info that fits my learning style.
  • Become a more efficient learner over time.

My Method

  1. To refresh my memory, I take physical notes using the Cornell Method while watching overview videos on any topic I'm reviewing.
  2. I copy these physical notes into a .md file using Markdown formatting. I use PHP Storm to create and manage these files.
  3. I upload the .md files to a Github repository

Why Physical Notes?

Cornell Notes prompt my brain to consider new material in several different ways, whereas typing my notes is too passive for me to do any deep thinking.

Why Markdown?

Markdown is an easy way to write plaintext and convert it to valid html. Thus, content is easily recorded and easily reformatted later for publishing.

Why PHPStorm?

  • PHPStorm is the preferred tool amongst the devs I'm working with right now.
  • PHPStorm has some smart tracking features that will keep my project organized (like managing relative links if I change the project's file structure).
