I've been playing around with Svelte/SvelteKit recently and I love it. I've learned so much. I'm currently playing with forms in Svelte and experimenting with different form and validation libraries. Where are the Svelte jobs? 😀 😀
Nice!
Maybe check out the Svelte Society for Svelte job postings? Maybe my coworker @brittneypostma has suggesrions for good places to look for Svelte job postings as she’s very active in the Svelte community.
Awesome, thanks for that Nick!
Of course! The Svelte discord has a jobs channel that is constantly getting new opportunities and there is a Svelte jobs newsletter.

Thanks @brittneypostma !
Elixir is growing steadilly.
Recruiters and companies get very fixated on the exact tech stack that you have worked, so it is much faster getting interviews if you apply in a tech stack that you have on your resume. Even if you worked in a particular industry and area of technology before, recruiters will complete dismiss your experience as irrelevant unless its an exact match on tech stack.
Learned testing on steroid - Cypress 😉
hey folks, i have started dev in frontend with HTML/ CSS and of-course the great JS.

looking to connect with new friends in the web dev space and want to grow in the frontend dev space
That's awesome! 🔥
Started learning Rust. Went through the first half of The Rust Programming Language.
Currently trying to build PNGme to get some hands-on experience.
After building my personal site with Eleventy ,watched a stream and learned about the things i need to work on to make it perform better..
Also:
git add -p- this is my new favourite commandAwesome!
I've started Adrian Cantrill's course for the "AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate" certification.
So far, I'm very impressed with the depth of information. The course not only prepares me for the test but also for the job itself.
I also purchased the Book Rust by Rustaceans to improve my skills as a Software Engineer. I would also highly appreciate any additional learning resources.
Nice!
Working with types in your libraries/packages is difficult. I'm writing a json validation library for dart, and working with types is a pain xD Not using types, that's not that hard, but passing types around and expecting certain types and so on is quite difficult.
PD: Not difficult to do, difficult to do well
Acurate xD
I managed to create a simple Pokemon game with JavaScript. Nostalgia was strong :)

I learned a new design pattern and started to read a book about it.
Sounds like it would make a great blog post! 😎
It's a good idea to fix the knowledge and contribute with the community. I hope to do it soon.
