Created my first passion project.

Context

My passion for engineering, in general, was dying. Part of what coding fun for me was dying.

I didn't want to lose that part of me. So this project serves as the first small step towards it.

With my passion projects (I have a list of it), I plan on not worrying about interviews, over-engineering or imposter syndrome in general. Just building what I like, the way I like.


About The Project

It's a web extension aiming to improve dev.to reading experience by hiding distracting UI elements and adding a custom read aloud feature.

The first iteration simply adds an alert when accessing the site.

alert("Hello world from Dev.to Extension")
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

For this project, I plan on:

  1. working in iterations.
  2. learn as I need.
  3. limit time spent (1 hour daily).

I still to learn JavaScript Basics, DOM Manipulation etc, so this is it for the day.
