Happy Birthday 🎉
Happy birthday!!
Launched my company website with satisfying Lighthouse results! 💪
The most satisfying feeling EVER. Getting a 90+ on everything with Lighthouse. BTW, did you happen to have used GatsbyJS to build your site?
Def a good feeling. No, I did not use Gatsby.
What language and hosting did you use?
looks like its top secret.
Sorry for the delay! It's just plain HTML and CSS written from scratch. Some minor JS for forms and shared hosting on GoDaddy but fronted by Cloudflare for caching, DNS management, security.
What do you use your service worker for?
Congrats! Definitely an example to follow!
I passed 2 stages of a technical interview this week. Looking to the last phase on Monday.
Good luck!
I GOT THE JOB GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, Thanks for all the Love and support
I was on a trip and we climbed the highest mountain in that state! It was 1km high and views from the top were extremely pretty ❤️❤️ Also, this week was the first time I traveled in an airplane alone.
Ordered my Hacktoberfest shirt!
I was super impressed that they had women's cut shirts, too. Most free t-shirt kind of things are purely unisex cut, which then gets into the weird situation where I weigh double my boyfriend but we're both "Medium". Unisex is not a good cut on any sex.
This week it's an easy one for me. As I was a speaker on a conference for the first time. I got to speak at GraphQL Summit about using Kafka with GraphQL demo is still spinning.

Thank you!!
Always love this topic. Helps to find a positive each week. So ah, thanks for starting it. :-)
This week I took a day off and just played with some code I've been "intending" to play with and never seem to find time for.
Project is simple/silly, but the stack is Go (+gorilla/mux) + MongoDB + Svelte. The Go+Mongo look to be the easy part of the whole thing and I had a functioning (if incomplete) API up in a few hours that was also delivering my SPA.
Svelte, on the other hand, looks to be more difficult. I usually want to see 3-5 different approaches to architecture before I settle on a path, and at this point there isn't a lot of real-world work that's not Sapper (which doesn't appear to mesh well with the Go-as-server route).
It was silly, and fun and went a long way towards recharging my batteries.
First dev.to pull request merged.
congrats!
Started a new side project. Still in it's design phase though. I want to maintain this in the long run as well 🙂
Good luck ;)
I killed 8k lines of code from an enterprise product, and integrated automated testing, code coverage, and NDepend analysis baked into the CI/CD pipeline.
I also finished my first product review contract work (it comes out tomorrow) and came to terms on a second item to be released in the new year.
Successfully accomplished a context switch from code to design!
I'm building an app (mylo) and with new features and ideas I often have to switch from a coding mindset to a designer mindset and there's always some friction there 🤷🏾♂️
My company hasn't done remote ever, but I still asked if I could go to Japan for 2 months and work from there, amazingly I got a yes. That was a few months ago, yesterday I bought my airplane tickets to Japan. 😁
