#css #javascript #webdev #react

Welcome to my Weekly Digest #48 of this year.

This weekly digest contains a lot of interesting and inspiring articles, videos, tweets, podcasts, and designs I consumed during this week.

Advent of Code started just a could of days ago, so if you haven't signed up already there are still a couple of days left to catch up.

Advent of Code is an Advent calendar of small programming puzzles for a variety of skill sets and skill levels that can be solved in any programming language you like.
