I’m Elena, and this is my very first post here.</p> <p>I’ve never really been into blogging, but lately, I’ve felt the urge to jot down some of my thoughts.</p> <p>The world of frontend development always fascinated me, and I’ve spent countless hours learning and experimenting on my own. However, since August, I’ve decided to take my passion a step further by enrolling at a school in Stockholm called Hyper Island (akin to a vocational college or “yrkenhögskola” in Swedish).</p> <p>It’s this new chapter in my life that has propelled me to share my journey. Honestly, before Hyper Island, while I was passionate about frontend, I didn’t have as many noteworthy experiences to share.</p> <p>My aim is to document the things I’ve learned, both independently and at Hyper Island, and to accumulate my thoughts in this space.</p> <p>This blog is primarily for me — a place to reflect and grow. But I hope that my experiences and insights might resonate with some of you out there.</p> <p>_A new chapter, but the story of passion continues.<br> _<br> P.S. I’d appreciate any feedback on <a href="https://elen-oz.site/">my portfolio</a> and <a href="https://github.com/elen-oz">GitHub repository</a>.<br> Your insights and critiques will help me grow and improve. Thanks in advance!</p> newbie firstpost
