Today I needed to allow arbitrary data attributes to be set on functional React elements, and as I couldn't find a result I thought I'd leave this here in case it helps anyone else.

It had been in the back of my mind for a while, largely thanks to all of the advertising for the event around the town, but I was finally convinced after speaking to one of the event organisers in a pub that it would be a good idea to give it a go.

Yesterday Shane came to me asking if I could think of a way to make a function shorter that he was working on for his latest Webwork project, which was to make a colour clock with JS, like usual I was intruiged and started to think of potential solutions in my head, little did I know what I was getting myself into!

It's exactly one year since my last post, and as the year rapidly draws to a close, I thought it would be a good time to post an update! I'm a little embarrased and dissappointed at myself for leaving it this long, especially after setting specific SMART targets in my last post. However I have a positive feeling about this next year!

2014 targets

A year ago today I set these objectives and said this:

I can hardly believe it's been 4 months since my initial post, I guess I've been pretty busy, although I could have probably spared some time to write a follow up blog post at some point!

Moving forwards into 2014, I've decided to set myself the new years resolution of becoming more organised and productive. Now written like that it sounds pretty ambiguous and hard to track, and when setting objectives it's a good idea to adhere to SMART criteria.
