Discover what type of programmer you are with this controversial questionnaire

Comment

Inspiration

Inspired by Steve Yegge's old blog post, I decided to make a quiz to find how liberal or conservative other programmers are.

What it does

Walks you through a questionnaire of programming related questions.

At the end you get a score relating to how Liberal or Conservative of a programmer you are, as well as a description of what that means about you and your working habits.

note: this liberal-conservative axis is orthogonal to the political axis

How I built it

  • Lots and lots of CSS
  • And typescript.
  • And a little HTML.
  • And firebase for static site hosting (my github.io domain is used up)

Challenges I ran into

Learning typescript is hard. I've done a lot of JS before but TS just felt foreign for several hours, and still reads weird. It feels clunky compared to the other js-with-types language I'm used to (Dart).

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

  • The algorithm to calculate your score (you can watch it update live)

  • The beautiful design

What I learned

  • TypeScript!
  • Integrating TypeScript & React!

What's next for tekr
