Remote work is basically the way of working but out of the usual office.
Therefore, as someone who has not been engaged in a remote work experience before, especially in software development, I came to face many challenges, learnt many lessons and broke certain breakpoints of my old coding style to a new and more professional one.
Technically, the challenges I faced are mainly:
=> GitHub best practices: Prior to working remotely I used to take standard practices GitHub workflow for granted. However thanks to the team I am better now.
=> Pivotal Tracker: I had never used this project management tool before which makes it so challenging to get up and running while working remotely.
=> Access to the internet: One of the few challenges I’ve been facing lately include access to good internet. The Internet is a bit cheaper at our telecommunication companies and even a bit poor.
After facing all of the above-mentioned challenges, I still kept fighting harder and harder to make it to the best that I could. I had to wake up earlier to do some warm-up coding before the stand-up hits in , have the stand-up call then keep coding full time until midnight or later (cause it was remote work I could even code overnight).
I enjoyed the passion and courage that flew into me since the Stack Up/Roll Up program started which made me learn a lot more hard-working and gained more experience in general.
