I got to be an earlier reviewer and back of the book quote for Functional programming with C#, I finished writing chapter 12 in my book, Refactoring with C#, and I discovered I'm likely eligible for an AI Specialist title at work.

Hasn't been one of my best weeks in a long time, but being able to put out my article on React Router was a very worthwhile feeling.
Also, I made a new friend. 😁

Current wins in the world of open-source maintaining include welcoming two new contributors this week: Tyler Celestin and Negar Nasiri. They have provided valuable feedback, suggestions, and improvements, as well as contributed their "Before I Die" images and text to the question, "What do you want to do before you die?" I highly recommend checking out our repo for Before I Die Code. We keep building every day!

Figured out how to compile (or transpile? I don't know which is correct) a Typescript + React project to multiple build files so I can use each as a static file with Django. I might write an article (or multiple probably) about it.

For me, it would be:

  • Started out writing blogs, generating some followers! (which I greatly appreciated)
  • Pitched out some projects and got accepted one (project related to AI and AR 🤔)
  • Found a mentor for our upcoming startup 🤯
  • Progress on my AI learning journey! 🧠

I somehow not progressed much on coding due to busy schedule though. I planned on learning conventional React folder structuring and clean code to be able to apply on my React projects 😴. Maybe this week I will! 💪

My big win: I earned my Swift Programming Language badge on linked-in! I scored in the top 5% on the exam (more of a quiz really). I was kind of nervous to take it, but jumped in there on a whim, and I feel ridiculously vindicated - at least some of my hard work this summer has stuck in my brain!

I'm new here and been busy building my own PHP Framework and so far, after 3 days, I'm able to implement:

  • Auto-routing with [slug] for normal HTTP request.
  • Basic templating with client rehydration as part of SSR and SPA features.
  • Component as a Service. Handles API request, Web Component.
  • Scoped styling for components.
  • Add unit-test as I progress.

Still thinking if Tailwind as default styling framework.

Can you call opening notification and responding at least the first batch of 400+ notif a win since it is like a battle for me? 😭🫠
