Freelancing was going fine… until

Heyy geniuses
(don’t know if that’s the right word, but hoping at least two people read this )

So,
I’ve been freelancing for the past few months, mostly building conversion-focused websites and animations, and getting clients through LinkedIn and Instagram.

Everything was going fine… until curiosity kicked in.

For the last month or so, I’ve been wanting to understand how things actually work internally - not just what works, but why it works.

So alongside client work, I started digging into React internals, purely because it’s fun to know why things behave the way they do under the hood.
and honestly… it’s been pretty fun.

Just learning, building, breaking things, fixing them, and enjoying the process.

This is my first post here on Dev Community - mostly to see if my kind of people are around.

People who genuinely love code.
People who have something more interesting to say than “huhh AI will replace developers.”

Curious to know 👀
What’s been the real reward for you of posting here and being present in this community?
