DEV team and you did such a great job this year. You all should be proud.
Thanks!
Wow!
Was this enforced by the team/yourself/both?
I enforced it since 2016, I promise that to myself, and I'm happy to can stick to that. The point was, in the beginning, to show with an example that good unit test coverage (and have tests in general) pays off, relatively quickly. I can say there was some skepticism at the beginning of some colleagues, but now everybody takes it as a standard :)

I really like dev.to because the achievements of others inspire me but they make me anxious as well. This was actually a great way to think about what you have achieved this year.
Goals for 2019 would be to start blogging & contributing to open source!
Well done! Sounds like a great year, you should be really proud.
Looking forward to your first post :)
Maybe I'll add more if there's something I missed, but here you go.

I'm definitely more a consumer than contributor right now. Β―\(γ)/Β―
Of course, the GitHub commits above don't include what I've done at work (those are privately stored elsewhere), so there's that.
