So I had a problem with an external React UI library which failed all my tests.

Wanted to fix it but was busy firefighting. I finally sat down last week to fix it once and for all.

Turned out it was because of a wrong configuration of my babel conf file. And it's only 1 line of code!

Glad that's over now!

Not a code related win. But on the very last hour of the week (assuming your weekends on Sunday) I found an apartment in the city I work in, so now I can stop living in hostels and go home grab my main pc and start working on side projects.

And right now I'm going to write my very first Dev.To post and I'm going to try to make it a regular thing to post on here as I've been wanting to start blogging.

[Shannon Crabill]

Finding an apartment is a very big win. Congrats!

Be sure to share your first post as a weekly win once it's live :)
