Hello friends!

I hope you all had a wonderful week! I'm off traveling for Thanksgiving after teaching a fun workshop in Chicago, and am looking forward to eating a bunch this week. Anyway, let's go!

Web links of the week

I created the exact same app in React and Svelte. Here are the differences.
The Modern Way to Use Promise- Based HTTP Requests: axios-hooks
Mobile Dark Patterns

Something that interested me this week

I had a Philly cheesesteak for the first time this week! It might sound like a silly update, but I'm married to a man from Philadelphia and had never tried it. And, I'm happy to say, it was delicious!

We've now had them for 3 nights in a row and should probably stop.
...nah.

Interview question of the week

Last week I had you implement the substring() function! Nice work Alex, Daniel, Vasanth, Andrew, Tom, Ryan, Jesse, Nick, Matthew, Eric, Leslie, Daniel, Kyle, and Paul!

This week's question:
Implement the game rock, paper, scissors.
