I had my first zoom meeting, to possibly prepare a future DEV podcast 🍾 Huge win overall: that's the first time I'm asked to talk about my work.

I also improved this project:

added final and abstract, for both classes and functions.
added #require to improve how plugins are handled.

I should merge this during weekend, there's a tiny thing in arguments handling I can/want to improve.

Less important, but also sparks joy: I made it to the 7th place in the only online game I play 😄

Well, guess you have to append '+1' to that, now.

I figured out how to do an odd even cycle in Django templates. Been occassionaly finding a way to do it and finally did it!

I got some mix of TailwindCSS and Gulp working despite a lot of useless error messages.

Now I just need to figure out what I did to get it to work. :)

I improved the tooling behind Daily C++ Interview, now it's much easier to add new questions.

Released a font loader plugin for Gatsby that got almost 500 downloads! Someone even submitted a bug report. Really happy about it!

Load fonts asynchronously & handle FOUT with my Gatsby plugin

I really can't tell you at the moment 😇, you'll need to wait till the next week to know so I can see if it's a win or not

My new win this week is DIVING BACK INTO CODING! Hahaha
2020 has been a challenging year and It was the year I actually started coding, but had to stop due to personal problems. Now I'm back at it and really excited! Especially because now I found communities to interact with and platforms to share my code ideas, improve and contribute!
