I have made a discord bot and server that will be used by our academy's tutors and students, in order to make getting help easier :D It's a ticket system with extras, written from scratch and ran on my Raspberry Pi. One of my first small projects that is actually used in a real-world scenario.

Could actually write multiple things, but in the end, what matters is how it makes me feel.

By rating the mood each day for 4 years in an app I can see on paper that the past two weeks has been unusual good. That's my win :)

I have 2 wins this week, which are:

  1. I have finished my full stack NodeJS bootcamp with successful final presentation
    on my landing page and CRUD mockup, and about to receive a placement this
    month as a full stack software developer.

  2. I almost finished my navigation bar on my project about popular FAQ site which is
    Quora, this is already a win for me, because I learned a lot while working on this
    project. If you don't know about Quora, you can search quora.com/
