I started on Codecademy's Data Scientist Career path and started building an unsplash clone which is still in progress.

I recently switched from Visual Studio Code to PHPStorm for my IDE. A win this week was learning how easy it was to make commits to GitHub and running different emulators in React Native, across two projects at once. This was without having to give commands to multiple terminals.

Example:

  • Little "Play" buttons showed up in the Package.json file to run NPM scripts.
  • I could visually check on/off which files I wanted to commit from both projects.

It was a small workflow thing, but it actually helped me focus on coding more. I think I am in love. lol 😍

Used so far

  • PhpStorm first
  • Then WebStorm because I didn't need php anymore
  • Idea for Java

Couldn't wish better

I shipped a very very very early version of my new PHP routing framework, Wayfinder.

Even if I’m the only person who ever uses it, it will serve as a good base for any future projects I work on.

I'm coaching a teammate for a couple of weeks. He really likes that and is already showing good signs of improvement.

For the first time, he strictly followed a Clean Architecture approach, which allowed him to write tests event before touching any UI-related stuff. And he was really excited about it.

I've come to the realization that I'm becoming a Data Analyst and I accept that wholeheartedly! Next week I'll plan out my trajectory... #StayCoding #365Opportunities

Started removing some old and not really needed features from a service I wrote years ago. It's usually a good week if I have time to chip away at my tech debt to do list.
