Congrats! How do you go about editing/reviewing a post before you publish it? Do you send it to friends, or fellow devs?
Since I need to release one blog post a week usually I don't send it to anybody.
I write it on google docs or some office suite
and then I copy and paste it into Grammarly pro.
A review is usually done after I published it by the community ;)
Reviewing my blog post is also not so important most often because either it is just posting something about my experience and thoughts about it.
Or when it comes to coding I really run the example code I provide and make sure that the example really works.
So yeah for me if the code works and then everything should be good to go :)
This also helps with the more theoretical stuff. An example would be the Vue render post I wrote. It validates itself and you can validate the example code :)
I would like to give it to someone but then again most of the time the post validates itself.
Maybe someone should proofread it but I don't know anybody how would do it once a week ;)
What makes your articles different than others? How do you stand out?
My articles are based on real-world problems and real-world problems :)
Most of my articles are based on needs or on junior dev questions that I got.
So I try to make my articles as applicable to the real world as possible if it fits.
Thanks for the great tips @lampewebdev
What was your biggest learning outcome from the weekly challenge? I'm thinking about doing the same. Any thoughts?
And congratulations on those followers! Those are big numbers.
Thank you very much 😄
The biggest outcome is that I can do it!
during that challenge, I married my wife and was in China for 2 weeks and did other vacations and still could do it!
So yeah if I just want to I can do it :)
Do it with a friend and if you lose it must hurt!
Not much that it would ruin you
But also not something that is easy.
So we decided that we would go for a pizza in our fav pizza restaurant and the loser need to pay for both of us :)
But absolutely do it!
I'm thinking about doing the same with youtube videos ;)
That's amazing!! I'm just staring at a new youtube channel on weekly python news and curious libraries.
I'm doing it with a friend. Check it out @MidMeetPy!
Our first episode was out yesterday and it was so much fun to record it! I think everyone should do it, for real!
And thanks for the prompt response. I'm definetely more inspired to keep on going with those blog posts now.
I will check it out :)
Good luck and fun with it!
With both youtube and blog posts :)
Why don't you feel like you are not a 'real' backend developer?
What for you does it mean to be a backend developer?
I'm so happy for you. Congrats! Amazing path.
Thank you very much :)
Have a great day
Congrats! Quality content brings large numbers of followers 👍🏼
Thank you very much, much appreciated.
Can you kindly enlighten me about the difference between 5.000 and 5,000? :)
🤔🤔
Without more context, I would say localization?
And DIN norms? 😄
Oops, sorry. I thought I was clear enough. Obviously I wasn't
I was just confused why you mentioned 30.000 (with a dot) instead of 30,000 (with a comma) in the post body and the title. I haven't seen such a usage before.
Anyways, thanks for your response. I didn't know there were norms dictating usages like 10.000 😲Have a great day 🙂
You have standards for this
A good read is here:

It is the same with dates :)
I would write 12.03.2012
But is it March 12 or December 03?
or what about 12.03.12 or 12/03/12?
dates and times and numbers when you go out in the big big world are a mess :D
2 Questions:
In your opinion who is full-stack web developer ?
Like he should know Data Structures, Javascript, SQL , Design Patterns ? Is this the minimum requirement ?
Will a 6 plus years experienced Software Engineer needs to know about Data Structures ? If he doesn't, is this Good time to learn after 6 years ?
1.
It is hard to tell what the minimum requirement is these days. Do you need to know all the data structures?
No. Do you need to understand some? It does not hurt. It is the same as the rest. The more you know the better of course. In the end, it is just a title and there is no test to say you are a full-stack web dev now. If you get the full-stack web dev job you are one 🤣
I would only say that in general as a dev you need to learn new things all the time even if you worked in the field for 20 years.
2.
It is always a good time to learn about data structures.
It will make your life easier.
It is important to try them out in the real world.
A lot of people are book smart but when it comes to real projects they don't know what to do.
Hi, 😄 May I know which software you used to record the youtube videos. is it freeware ? And did you used normal mobile headphones as mic ?
the software was streamlabs.com/
the mic I don't know found some cheap good one on the internet.
I don't have the packagin any more sadly.
It was around 50 euros I think 🤔
Congrats!! 🎉
Off the top of your head, what is your personal favorite of the posts you've written?
Thanks.
Top of my head it would be:
5 important but overlooked skills you should have as a top developer!
