I'm just out of college, but got an offer as engineering lead with a communications provider based on my 9 years of freelance experience
Wow, 9 years of freelance experience and fresh out of college!!
... shuffles around nervously
What am I doing with myself?!
In all seriousness though, that is awesome! Congrats!!
I've refactored a bunch of components that we had in one of our Angular application and moved them into a library so we can use them across the rest of Angular projects in the company.😄
It was pretty much a challenge because the components code before doing the refactor was tightly coupled to the rest of the project.
Completed successfully the last class of my master's degree in Pervasive and Mobile Computing..
I have also participated at a dance show with two choreographies (ATS and Tribal Fusion).
I had to dance in the show one day before the exams!!!
Well both of these tasks went great!
P.S. I work full time. (But took a few days off in order to study:)
Here's a detail of my dance:
Oh, awesome moves!! And wow, sounds like you've been incredibly busy!
Managed to increase the performance of a very slow piece of code by a factor of 4.
Doing my masters degree in tandem with a full time job, I am relieved to see one of the most demanding courses be left behind me for good
This was one of those weeks where getting through the week was all that I could accomplish...
Ah, one of those weeks eh? I'm familiar with that feeling. Thank goodness it's the weekend! 😀
I had a three-day-long Angular & TypeScript-Workshop at work.
I understand better the appeal of having your Framework define lots of things like Routing and Ajax for you. I can see how its restrictive nature is a good fit for larger teams with diverse seniorities. Also the first-class IDE-support you get with TS is something I envied Java-Devs for. I guess that's why it is so huge in the enterprisey sector.
Half of the attendees were Java/Backend-Developers. They were amazed and surprised about how close all of that is to working with things like Spring (I have no idea if that is actually true).
For my personal taste it's still too object-oriented and verbose. Plus I'm a fan of server-rendering most things. But, you know, as Front-End-Dev in 2019 it can't hurt to know it. Plus TS and RxJS are impressive and I'll definitely use them in near future.
Too object oriented? Do tell!
You can use server side rendering using Angular Universal. angular.io/guide/universal
In the right enviroment yes. At my work, projects & company I don't think I could justify a dedicated node-server only for the front-end, in addition to the Java-Server(s). Also I haven't worked on SPAs yet.
I could imagine it's a great fit if your app consumes services from all over the place. Then you need a front-end-server anyways.
Biggest win yesterday after a lot of head banging- Figuring out in Capybara that
click_button 'Favorite'
does something different than
find('button[title="Favorite"]').trigger('click')
Can't hear head banging and not think of headbanging, i.e. heavy metal. 🤘🎸
Also congrats! Hopefully no more head banging for you, but maybe some headbanging! 😎
Finally converted some internal RPMs from CentOS/RHEL6 do CentOS/RHEL7 :))
My project got 10 stars on GitHub:
Template for creating and developing ZeroNet sites
ZeroNet Template
Template for creating and developing ZeroNet sites.
Description
This project provides a template for creating and developing ZeroNet sites.
It supports NPM dependencies and it uses Gulp and Browserify for bundling scripts. It also supports SASS and automatic deployments with Travis CI.
Usage
Requirements
You must have Git and Node.js installed on your computer. It is recommended that use the latest versions.
It is also recommended to also install Python and ZeroNet for easier developing and deploying. You need to use Python 3 version of ZeroNet.
Start
If you don't already have your own ZeroNet site, you should create it from ZeroNet. Details are available in ZeroNet documentation. You must have a site's address and a private key.
You can then clone or fork this repository and install dependencies. It already contains an example site and code with ZeroFrame API.
And I created (my first) Dev.to post about it:

Heyoo! Busy week right there. Nice accomplishments!
