I still find it crazy that I have been programming for 200+ days now.

While I haven't made any money, I have learned a lot, going from 0 programming skills to now building my first app.

Here are 5 tools that have been essential for my journey so far:

7. (Design Inspiration) https://mobbin.com

Huge for website and app inspiration, helping me design better tools

BONUS 6. (CSS Hacks) https://buff.ly/40CEdTu Lun Dev's Entire Channel

It was huge for learning essential CSS skills while also learning cool design tips.

3. Groq.com (Used to build my first Ai based project)

Has easy to use LLMs with good enough free tier for testing and personal projects

0. devdocs.io Every Language and detailed documentation for all

Helped me figure out what HTML elements to use (can't use div for everything lmao)

Used it to learn Array functions for JS since there are a variety

Great place to refresh myself on topics I learned

📘Day 197

No "exciting" changes today 😂

I optimized the image querying because my original version took 8 seconds to load posts

Before:
- Query and attach pfp to each post instance

Now:
- Takes all unique author ids
- Creates object with all unique pfps
- Grabs those in html

📘Day 173 (Coding Journal)

Absolutely HUGE progress today & yesterday.

2 Changes:
- Posts can link to the author
- Clicking on posts can open their designated page

It's crazy how finding that project in that challenge-skills sweet spot can really get you in a flow state

I don't want to stop

📘Day 171 (Coding Journal)

I had a spark of inspiration today.

I was originally planning for this project to be quick, but I now wish to expand on it

What was originally going to be a brief project is going to become a complete forum style site
(inspiration from Reddit and X)

I'm locked in

📘Day 169 (Daily Coding Journal)

Made progress learning how to make an account system.

The last few days I've got a home page working with an editable description and option to change your password.

I've learned a lot so far, building this!
