My wins this week were...

  • Taking the initiative of turning web development as a hobby to web development as a career.

  • Taught myself Docker so I could transition deploying my apps from Heroku to DigitalOcean (Saving a bunch of money each month)

  • Attended a coding meetup where I actually engage with other members

  • Created my portfolio design from scratch and deployed a pixel-perfect copy that was mobile responsive.

  • Sent out my first resume

Thank you so much for this post to help me reflect on this hectic week. I wasn't confident if making the decision to turn my hobby into a career was the right choice in my life, but I definitely feel like I am moving towards... well, something :)

I finished at Flatiron and graduation is March 12th. It is so exciting to finish and incredible to gauge how much more I now know. I'm actively searching for that first DEV position.

Mine was doing my first GIT Repo merging. It went well, still not convinced and just waiting for that knockout punch to arrive, so far so good. πŸ˜‚

I fixed a bug on a Django web application. The development server used to crash while converting HTML to PDF using WeasyPrint with Segmentation Fault. I found the reason to be wrong external URL which was making it to fail. It took a whole week to find this out. I wish I was a better developer.

I made my first Android app, at least something that I can actually call a functional app. Its a game.

Also I done full backend of one of my projects in flask so it stayed to finish when I have time the part that is frontend related. It will be Vue.js.
Also I worked on one more of my projects and done quite a lot on the level on improving my organisation and notes talking and prioritisation.

I did a lot of productive work on a side project that I've been thinking about for a long time! It is going to be an API based on #Laravel. I like how it is turning out so far, but there's still a lot of work to be done.

I just released my landing page though: quizapi.io

Signed a lease for a much nicer house that's a little closer to work for myself and my wife. Also finally learned a (mostly) non-hacky way to serialize dictionaries in Unity.
