Good day, everyone!

Today was actually a productive day for me. I managed to study a lot of Scrum and GraphQL, continued to work on writing my Scrum article, and reached out to multiple people to expand my network. Oh, and I also made my own Twitter profile, which I didn't customize yet.

Yesterday

I finished the draft of the Scrum Team section of my Scrum Guide for beginners, and I also reviewed GraphQL's basic concepts.

Today

Here are the things I've learned and done today:

Scrum

• read up on different leadership styles and how Scrum Masters are true servant leaders and not authoritative managers.
• added Scrum Master subsection for my Scrum Guide.
• added Scrum Artifacts section.
• did some practice quiz questions about Scrum.

GraphQL

• started learning about GraphQL server-side.
• read about GraphQL schemas, type definitions, and resolver functions.
• learned about GraphQL server's network layer.
• read an introduction to GraphQL server libraries such as express-graphql, apollo-server, and graphql-yoga.
• look deeper into how GraphQL differs from REST API, and which scenarios one should be used over the other.
• review concepts I've learned last week.

I hope everyone's doing great! Thank you for reading!
