I did a technical test at the end of last week that, in my opinion, didn't go very well. From that experience, I learned how long it takes for me to tackle programming tasks. It'll help me gauge my timing for whenever the next test rolls around.

I have decided to create a new portfolio using Gatsby. I've never used Gatsby (or any SSG) before this week, but have some experience with React. Having a great experience so far!

I dipped my hand into React and I learnt about the very basics. Like the difference between imperative and declarative programming, JSX, components and the virtual DOM.

I decided to hop back on mobile app development again after 3 years. 🥺

So I started with Android. First I did the basics of Kotlin language, then I make a very basic app and now I am learning advanced topics like networking. storage etc.!
