This week’s Chit Chat Across the Pond is another installment of Programming By Stealth with Bart Busschots.

I’ve been asking Bart a lot of questions in the back channel as I struggle to understand the documentation he has provided in our latest few sessions of homework assignments.

Bart gave me another two weeks to get my homework done on Programming By Stealth and brings us a case study of how to create a JavaScript API on Github.
