A bit of background. Dev exp 3 years of on/off .Net, no git, a bit of Java in college, previous role is closer to an analyst for IT projects in reality.

Starts to learn JS. After few startups and projects in the space of half a year, got into 1 of the most popular startups in the region.

Then life hits -- daily scrums, JIRA, talented full stack devs, Some tasks I did well but some didn't, e.g too long to finish, have to be redo by the CTO due to regressions and poor code quality.

So today is the end of my third month here. CTO decides on giving me another month of probation. We both agree I am not up to par with most of the output of the other seasoned devs.

Things I need todo: framing problems, asking the right questions, focusing on a specific repo rather than trying to be involved in all repos, and thinking creatively to create quality code.

But how do I create quality code, elegant solutions and fast, in the space of 1 month? Do I finish up Code Complete 2? Or do I practice my fundamental JS knowledge doing exercises?
