I will my start learning C# seriously this week. I have pretty much been focused on the JavaScript ecosystem for the past 10 years. It will be interesting to see how I go about embracing a new one.

I plan to also have my personal blog finally launched. I have been building a solid roster of articles and found myself writing every other day. Just do it 😀

Finally all the building blocks of my upcoming JavaScript are in place. I will probably finish the outline of the pre launch sequence by the end of the day week.

Looking forward to another week of doing, learning and sharing.

Are you going to learn .net core? I'm a "c# dev" that wants to go frontend

Yes that’s the plan a current project I’m involved in uses .net core and I want to know more about it.
Front end is fun though the learning curve is becoming challenging. But with a proper roadmap you should be fine

Will definitely look into Pluralsight. I always liked their road map learning path.
I have started a series with Mosh Hamedani to get the ball rolling but Pluralsight is definitely next.

  • more FreeCodeCamp JavaScript
  • Decide if I should use Django or Laravel to build my site
  • Add Python/PHP to my to-learn list, based on the above decision
  • Find a co-founder? somehow...
  • Keep drawing wireframes until I magically find a way to transform them into a website

One thing that helps me when I have to choose between to similar languages (like Python and PHP) it's to check what I want to accomplish, the community and to read some code.

The most useful resource when I was learning was:

Python/Django

PHP/Laravel

Headed to referee the biggest soccer tournament in the state. Hoping I can stabilize my servers to the point I’m not trying to deal with outages between games.

Excellent, thank you! I visited some friends and family in my hometown of Santa Cruz, CA. Then saw Avantasia live in San Jose which was awesome.

I have one more week before moving into a new role, it's going to be a very busy week of tidying things up.

  • Finish refactoring and migrating 100 little code blocks to a new platform, thankfully this is almost over.

  • Create a readable report from logfiles so non-technical users can use it

  • Wrangle members of my team to create presentations for a day of workshops next month

  • Write a new post for Dev :)

Took a long weekend to go to the coast. So my week will probably be just trying to readjust to desk life.

I had a break from writing my book vpsformakers.com/ book because I did a little holiday with a friend of mine. So this week I want to continue (probably chapters regarding storage, backups, DNS), and well, also watch the last episode of Game of Thrones haha :D
