I learned a lot about Express.js! One of my repos also got quite a few PRs which was quite awesome too :)

My win was getting my first Hacktoberfest PR entered. It hasn't been accepted yet but just getting down and doing one is still a win.

I open-sourced some of my stale repos for Hacktoberfest, and got some really nice PRs.

I also started contributing to some hacktoberfest-tagged repos. 🙌

Completed the 4 PRs, but I'm still going for more 👨‍💻

Started the second half of my full-stack bootcamp this week and began learning Python. After studying JavaScript for the last 1.5 years, it’s pretty cool to dive in to a new language and be able to recognize the patterns between the two.

Oh, also I posted my first article on DEV and got retweeted. :)

A few months ago I decided to make my own web browser, I did it more by way of learning, I never thought it would work, and it turns out that I started using it for myself because of all this privacy and data management by the giants, but Seeing the statistics I was surprised, people began to enter and as they grow I will begin to pay more attention and improve it.

I gave in and decided it was O.K. to launch a project in 2021 instead of 2020. Which now gives me more time to breathe and time to make it a better project for next year. Sometimes I forget I don't need to always launch things at the soonest possibility opportunity.

I am thinking of copying the content of my blog posts on Dev.to as well. Also, I need to figure out adding a comments feature on my blog posts ;)

I convinced two repositories where I often contribute to to add hacktoberfest topic and got 3 PRs merged.
The 4th PR is waiting for DefinitelyTyped maintainer. They usually show up after 10 days.

I manage to start trying to show the world that I created a game engine. Hopefully it gets some interest and people start creating with it.
