// THE POINT THIS WEEK
Guided walkthrough of the Contact List assignment, then independent completion.
// TALKING POINTS
The contact list build
- An array of person objects, rendered as a page
- Loop the array, build HTML for each contact, insert it
- This is the milestone: data in, page out, nothing hardcoded
Data-driven thinking
- Change the data and the page follows; that's the whole trade
- One rendering loop replaces a hundred copy-pasted lines
- Every app you use daily is this pattern wearing a costume
