An alternative way to log your 100DaysOfCode

Fabio Rosado on January 15, 2019

This project is meant to be an alternative way to keep track of your 100DaysOfX challenge. It allows you to have your first portfolio - if you wish...

What you do when you miss days? I mean I started 20 days ago but I am still in day 12. Believe it or not I forgot to post. In fact I am always reading manuals or other stuff about coding.
Since you are working in a real job โœˆ๏ธ (not like me working from home) I believe you must be missing more than I do ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hello thank you for the comment!
I feel you, I used to forget to log things each day. Since the streak is based on post dates you can create a new post with your progress and set the date for that past day.

If you spent time reading about coding Iโ€™d say they are good to log as well ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘

Also Iโ€™m not going to lie, I failed the challenge twice and when I did completed it I didnโ€™t feel I did it right because had to skip many days. Like you said working a real job makes things harder and shift work doesnโ€™t help since I canโ€™t really plan too ahead when I will have time to code. At least when Iโ€™m off I bing on all code related things ๐Ÿ˜„

Finally, if you are using this template feel free to share it Iโ€™d be happy to see it in action and also if you have any feedback let me know ๐Ÿ‘

Hey, that's really cool! I've been thinking about doing the challenge and this looks like an awesome way to track progress. Lucky I just started messing around with Jekyll so this is perfect timing. I'll be forking this. Thank you!

Thatโ€™s awesome thank you so much for those kind words. I failed my first attempt as well and on my second I did log 100 days but not in a row, itโ€™s alright to break your streak :D
