I got my first engineering job! It's a 3 month contract and I'm an apprentice software engineering, but I'm so pumped!

I completed 2 new fun projects which are both time-related libraries written in TypeScript ☺️

github.com/analizapandac/convertib... and github.com/analizapandac/time-turn...

And my team was able to finish a big feature at work that we've been working on for weeks 💥

Thanks!

Still can't believe someone thought I'm responsible enough to sell a house to.

Never mind trust with a few hundred thousand dollar mortgage...

I made a new NPM package called projectman (github.com/saurabhdaware/projectman) which got 28 stars today and also wrote an article about it on DEV and it became my first article to reach 100+ reactions and it just makes me so happy to see people are liking it!

I also started learning Rust and wrote my first "Hello, World!" program in it! (I freaked out when rust threw an error for camelCasing function name 😂)

I survived a real rollercoaster of a week at work and started prepping a "lunch and learn" for colleagues on Gatsby 😁

I've got next week off work and looking forward to some good coding time... Maybe even finally updating my portfolio!
