I've been asked one too many times in an interview to explain the event loop. Afterwards, I'm always a bit worried that I missed a part, or didn't explain something adequately. So, I figured that if I create a story involving my character Bruggie, the Sometimes Great Wizard, explaining the event loop to another fellow wizard, I would get it down pat.
... Right?
As well, I've always wanted to create a workshop. They're fun to work through, and super informative. I also just like creative writing. I hope I can bring back Bruggie, the Sometimes Great, in some sort of story again.
I finally "got" the event loop when I watched Philip Roberts' talk at JSConf EU 2014: "What the heck is the event loop anyway?". If you are looking for a video walkthrough of the event loop, I highly recommend it. It's comprehensive, but at the same time easy for a beginner to understand. So, I owe thanks to Philip for making that. :smile:
