I finished djangocms-faq, its a cool plugin that's used in a djangocms website that allow people to create faqs and link them to a small form in order to get answers before using a contact form :)

Here's a video, and another video :)

In about five minutes I'm going to test my first cross-platform app with platform-specific code on a Mac, a system I've never once even used before. It's just a simple app to gather some system information on the command line, but a win's a win.

You know what, I'm actually more proud of figuring out how to reverse the mouse scroll wheel in MacOS. The code will run, I'm confident of that, but I thought I'd never figure out how to scroll naturally in this os.

Since long time I was exploring πŸ€“πŸ€“ options to move my wordpress blogs to platform as it was not getting so much traction.

I narrowed down my options to medium and dev.to finally settled on dev.to! One new post πŸ“― one cross post πŸ“― for 2k views and 40 reactions still counting.

Enjoying dev.to πŸ‘ tysm guys ❀️

  • I completed AngularJS course
  • Completed the plot of a story I was working on (Yes! I write)
  • will learn Chrome debugger tools

I say this week was great for me. Only because the load was well managed and distributed. This comes down to how your team lead manages work and the working culture of the company.

Finally found out how to override a third party's css with your own custom CSS. It has been a burden for me to work around for weeks.

Starting my blog has been very pleasant so far and I've already met some great people. πŸ˜„

My third real blog article (or fifth article in general if you include my discuss posts) is the first to go +1k views AND +100 likes. Thank you everyone...! πŸ™

I really thought all my posts would be below 1k views for months and I'd have to keep going, but it seems I've reached my first milestone much faster LOL.

My followers also doubled from 20 to 40 from that article. It's not much but I can at least tell I have potential!

For this week,

  • I talked to one of my friend and got a freelance application which might be built with Flutter for frontend and rest api for backend.
  • I decided to code with NestJs (A progressive Node.js framework) for backend.
  • Normally, I wrote api with laravel, this time I took risk for NestJs.
  • Since Tuesday, I learned about NestJs.
  • Friday, I posted article for my dev.to and YouTube.
  • This week, my office is also closed for national holidays so I got time to relax too.

Whatever, I enjoyed this week.
What about you?
What are you learning currently? let me know some <3
