I've obtained a new job :) I will be able to code with React and NodeJS full time with a developer senior as a mentor 😊 while moving in a beautiful city

Wow! The week is already over 😃 This was a quiet week with most of my time spent taking care of my son.
But still I was able to find time to pen down two articles with 1K+ views :-)
Plus gained like 100+ new followers on Dev platform. Looks like I'm doing something right, but, more importantly I'm enjoying at the moment.
Hope yours went alright and have a nice weekend!!!

Programming-wise my week has been pretty uneventful but I've made a fantastic tomato sauce last Wednesday.

Lots of garlic, onion, canned tomatoes lightly blended with a hand mixer. Easily my best one so far. I ate it with spaghetti 😄

I visited the office for the very first time since mid-March (my team decided to do it on the same day) and that was a bit weird experience - almost empty silent office. I felt like I either arrived too early or too late :)

But anyway, it was great to meet colleagues in real life after 4 months of remote work, that was very cool.

Meeting some awesome junior devs here and on LinkedIn (I really wish I'd taken advantage of DEV Community sooner), and connecting with some great individuals who share my ambition for educating them (and one who not only wants to do it for free, but get laptops to those who can't afford them).

And fleshing out some SaaS product ideas.

Consistently posting articles every day to dev.to for a whole week.

Getting goodies from daily.dev as I provided them with feedback:

As I am completely new to web development, fixing a CORS was my win of the week!!! :) :)

And I'm new to this platform as well. Probably, my first comment.

Glad to be here!! Looking forward for great learning!!! :) :)

To implement Mobx for our product-team/admin panel for a big analytics table for all the video conferencing events, which integrates data coming from MySQL as well as Firebase connections.

Now that I have firebase connections being made per each row, I have run into another problem to provide all that updated data to a Download CSV button (which is an array of event details plus the firebase data for those events). The big win is I was able to optimize but next big worry is if I update this same array ( even in mobx store) how to avoid additional re-render!!!

Started learning React native. I was really struggling to generate an APK file for a test app I built, because I didnt want to use expo's build service. Was finally able to generate the apk using Jenkins on my own instance on AWS. Feeling accomplished ha ha..

I made myself fully happy and a healthy mental state...
Played a lot of games and launched several version of Dev-Blogs Generator
Here is the quick link

Learning Vim and Tmux 🔥🔥. I used to be a big vscode fan but things started to get really slow and laggy when managing medium or big size projects . Then i got introduced to vim and I fell in love with it. Customizable, fast, very very lightweight , super powers like macros, keybinds .Vim is ❤️

I had a chill week with most of the time spent on practising coding interview questions as I am preparing for internships. Hope I get it soon! However this week I had to interview some juniors in my college for selecting them in a student chapter of which I am a part. I think that was fun!

I finally released my podcasting book

Its been a fairly quiet week programming wise apart from starting a new article. I did however manage to catch up with a few people I haven't spoken to in a while and started a new book, Platos Republic.

This week if would have to be a toss up between giving my first virtual talk in a studio - amazing experience! (hats off to the organisers for making that possible and Covid safe) or getting a proof of concept app ready for my team in a couple of hours whilst dealing the hangover from a mega migraine. Getting that out of the way made it possible for me to start the weekend with less stress and allowed my team to continue without me 🤩

I had the pleasure of being asked to record a chat with CSS Masters about my 100 days project and my work with web accessibility 😁 I'd never done anything like it before but I'm hoping I'll have the opportunity to do more in the future!

I published my first Kata on Codewars!

Got a Kong API Gateway up in production with JWT and rate limit plugins turned on!

This week I finished creating bargs - github.com/unfor19/bargs

This project helps developers providing command line arguments to their Bash scripts. I feel a big relief now, since I'm going to use it a lot :)

Hope you all had a great week

• Started updating Ruby Regexp book, hope to finish it by next weekend
• Updated my post on I know Python basics, what next? and so pleased to see that it was helpful to many

One of our applications kept timing out because a stored procedure on the database took ~5.5 seconds to run each time the user saved. I rewrote it and now it takes ~0.15 seconds to run!

We signed a gigantic contract at work with ml and iot and webdev which is awesome.
Also created this cool one line

What is your favorite one-liner?

Finally got to generate my first GraalVM native image from a Java jar package. Unfortunately, it's performance is still not quite as good as the JIT compiler's version, but we'll get there!

Bought a Bordeaux wine bottle @ 50% off price!

I created functional API methods for the first time. Pretty neat to finally watch something move through that breakpoint without stopping. Haha.

Started therapy.

I adopted a dog this week! This has been a long time goal I told myself I would fulfill when I became a steadily employed software developer. :)

Learned how to integrate angular front end with my flask application (using flask-security and flask-cors).

Those headers were challenging :D

Finally managed to finish a blog post that I've been planning for months on learning functional programming!

Started my blog using Gatsby and deployed to my domain using Netlify :D now I need to focus on customizations and creating content

Wrote a simple HTTP server for my new Android app, NOMone Desktop. Turns out, this is fairly simple, and extremely rewarding.

I FINISHED GRAD SCHOOL!!! 🤯 I have no idea what I'm going to do with all my free evenings and weekends now that I don't need to spend every free moment on schoolwork...

Learned React and built my first reactjs all

I was able to understand Logarithmic time complexity at a deeper level this week.

Prepping for an interview for those who are curious.

I started creating some HTML templates for VanillaJS, ReactJS, VueJS and Angular here

It's really fun and It's a good exercise to learn more about design

Learnt how to tunnel via SSH into aws instances to connect mongo and elastic search. Did it via NestJs. Never thought could do it.

Thinking of writing an article about it.

✅ Completed Flutter Bootcamp.
✅ Started New Challenge.
✅ Had joined Dev.to Community
✅ Learning how to write an article.

Overall: Productive Week 🥳

I've started a JS Bootcamp looking to learn some new things and level up my skills and play with a few frameworks.

I turned in my final project for my JavaScript class! I little Animal Crossing critterpedia.

I finished my side project! I wanted to create something that utilized APIs and SVG so I could learn them and have more solid knowledge.
