Episode notes

A lot of people have an anxious feeling that the world of web development is endless. I think where people start to lose their impostor sindrum is not when they get good at what they are doing. Just being comfortable in that space of not knowing is very important. Also, zack also asked about some coffee shops in denver. What's glofy in denver? Idon't want to post that question cause i just answer it here. There's a couple of places that i've been that are really good. Corvis is one of them. A blue sparrow is another one that's well known. And for those of you who like cold brews still

In this potluck episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott answer your questions about working on a team, dealing with imposter syndrome, animating on the web, using the table element, landing pages for apps, and building full stack apps with NextJS.
