Made one of my hobby projects open source and deployed it to npmjs. It's an Angular component:
github.com/milantenk/ngx-interacti...
npmjs.com/package/ngx-interactive-...
looks a lot like what Muhammed Erdem made a few months ago:
Exactly, my goal was to have a similar Angular alternative for that. This is why I reference that project at the end of the README and my LICENSE file contains the license of the original version as well.
Cool, didn't read that file. Good job and glad you gave him credit.
Very nice.
This is absolutely beautiful!!
Thanks!
Very nice!!
Thank you!
That is top class!
Splitting the string and animating each character - great use of Angular animations
Thank you for the feedback Brian! 🙂
Amazing. How long did it take you to develop that?
Thank you! Well it is not easy to tell this. I started it roughly half year ago, but there were several months when I did not work on this project. My estimation is 40 hours. 🙂
This is Awesome!
Thank you! 🙂
Started learning React Native while on a 49 days coding streak! 🥳
is it open source? ;))
Not yet but I wish to make it OpenSource!
nice! Keep me notfied!
Wow 49 days streak
Amazing
Thank you! ❤️
Added dark mode feature to my project ReactWeather.
The design is beautiful. ❤️
Thank you! Dana
This looks amazing! The shooting star animation in the dark mode switch is awesome!
Thanks Luciano,
To be honest the dark mode switch used in the app is from an NPM package (react-dark-mode-toggle). It's not what I built from my own.
In the past week, 2 things happened that felt like a win.
I got my first badge 😎😍
And I made it to the Top 5 DEV Comments in the Past Week!

I'm new to DEV, so this feels amazing 🌻
We released a new beta feature on the DevDojo site a couple of days ago. It’s called DevBlog. It lets you setup a fully functional blog with custom domain name for free in less than a few minutes 🙌
devdojo.com/devblog
Did a new app => Pomodoro
Did my first coding stream on Twitch Monday night!
It didn't go very smoothly at all 😅 but I have a few ideas to make it go better next Monday!
My last tech talk was an absolute train wreck - barely got there on time, only got to rehearse driving 4 hours there, had to redo my slides from scratch when I got there (leaving a typo in my company name and two major points missing, only one of which I caught while presenting) - but it was still very well received (save for the one guy who closed his laptop, put it in his bag, and walked out, when I said, "If you're looking for code samples, you've come to the wrong place. This is a philosophical/architectural talk").
Wow that's awesome 👏
Got my first
:)
I've survived another week of summer camp as staff! The heat definitely cracked me yesterday, but all is going well now. Kids are going home tomorrow, only need to stay up as late as I can tonight to close the last night with a banger. ^^
I got a request to do a code assessment! I did the practice one they sent over and am currently reviewing the parts I didn't know before I attempt the actual assessment. I also got three rejections and an email back about what I should improve upon! It's all part of the process.
Wrote a post about being autistic, something I've been wanting to write but have been scared to publish 😅
📙 Finishing the outlines of my book.
I wanted to write a book since I'm 10, I'm so happy I have finally time to do it. 🥰
I just checked out the site. Can't wait for it to launch. Very interesting topic for the book.
Thanks!
From last week's win:
Got my shout-out: dev.to/stereoplegic/i-m-not-really...
And the other host also emailed me to confirm that he really wants me on the show to talk about React Native persistence and sync solutions.
Participated in Tech Gig - Microsoft Azure Hackathon
Last week I Participated in Microsoft Azure Hackathon which was hosted by techgig.com
Among approx 10000 registrations , my team was chosen in semi final and then in top 10 finalist.
Hackathon helped me to Learn something new in few days.
😄
I started learning about three.js. Currently I'm struggling to understand why my 3D object isn't being displayed but I'm getting there!
This week I finally "got" JavaScript. I even started to enjoy it!
I taught myself HTML and CSS 16 years ago, as a kid just starting secondary school. I never wanted to be a developer. I just wanted the skills to build my own website. That was until those skills landed me a sweet front-end job... with no knowledge of JavaScript. I was lucky. I started studying it a few months ago, but convinced myself nothing was sinking in. I was NEVER gonna get my head around JavaScript...
Until this week, when I solved a tricky challenge effortlessly... and then another... and then another... and then another. I found myself seeking challenges out, looking for problems to solve just because I knew I could.
Turns out I was learning all along, and things were sinking in. My low self-esteem just wanted me to give up. :D
Publishing that article I had on draft for months now. It's here on DEV.
Applicative functors in javascript.
English | Español
Now I can go back to not having a clue what to do next.
Two big launch for me:
This week I managed to build out a small news and press release site using a combination of google docs, google sheets and php (using the google php api client) to collect the data and then store it locally as json. 🙌
Twilio has a great tutorial for interacting with google sheets
Got a simple build-deploy GitHub Action working for my personal website, and got my first by-line on my company's blog.
Deploy my first package to NPM 🎉
This is a CLI for React (like create-react-app but lighter), with Parcel, ask for few extra deps, basic configuration for Caprover deployment, and 2 GitHub action for linting and building 🤓
npmjs.com/package/create-react-rover
Published a video on my YouTube channel! 🚀 I document my progress building an open-source project called tailwind-snippets 🤩. It's layout and component snippets for TailwindCSS.
Got my 10th sponsor today, for a side project which was inspired by my dev.to article.
Just wrote about it here
My win, was that 9 days after hiring 2 juniors they (despite never talking to each other before employment with us):
When I hired them, considering one has never worked as a dev, I told PMO "don't expect to even be talking to them for a month after they start."
Boy, do I look daft. 🙂
Got a few starts on some on my projects, more collaboration on Gwion, and hopefully more to come!
Also completed some scoring (as in make musical score) job, and just started a new arrangement gig along with a new band.
So a nice week overall.
I can say I overcame my laziness. a bit. And also, I learnt how to use Vim.
I made a small break thru in understanding react routes a little better. And i finished my second round of #100daysofcode this tuesday! 👩💻
Finally published that article I've been working on for about two weeks! I deferred some things for another new article...but hey, it's still a win.
I fixed an annoying scrolling bug on my website and refactored some code for an app that I created making it cleaner.
Remote pairing session with a recently hired junior dev- coaching and problem solving! Feels like a win!
That is over.
This week was a little storm of events but happy to have my sandwich course for September 😄
This week I could not read the news, had the privilege of taking time off that. And working on our household pantry web app.
I learned Figma 😁
I finished a repo, and I started to finish another 😉
Wrote my first TypeScript tips post.
Hope people find it useful 😊
