I got this badge which motivated me to write more here:

Also, I wrote feedback for the homepage of DEV which was definitely worked on by suggestions with other wonderful people in this community.

I was mentioned for the first time for feedback in this:

I (finally) completed and delivered two proposals to potential clients.
I made a bunch of progress on two other projects currently in development.
And I made time to play golf with my son and take him to Galaxy's Edge (East).

Felix Firsching • Feb 21 '20

Awww man, so jealous about Galaxy's Edge. How did you like it?

David Vincent Gagne • Feb 21 '20

It's mind-blowing if you're a Star Wars fan. This was our fifth or sixth time there. We didn't even go on Smuggler's Run (and we still haven't made it on to Rise of the Resistance) but we had a great time.

We went on Star Tours (for the millionth time) and got a completely new version, with lots and lots of Rise of Skywalker clips. Very cool.

Felix Firsching • Feb 21 '20

Man, that even sounds awesome! Experience reports like this really make us poor Europeans question our existence haha. Glad you guys get to enjoy it. This is the way!

Adam Crigger • Feb 21 '20

figured out the branding / got something up on the internet for my newest side project [fart.bar]

invot • Feb 21 '20 • Edited

Okay, you can't just name a website fart.bar and not say anything else about it :p

Adam Crigger • Feb 21 '20

Learned a lot more about Istio, Envoy, and TLS. 🤯

Specifically, I learned about alpn, how Istio configures Envoy to route based on it, and how it can be set using OpenSSL's s_client. My path ultimately led to this... 😂

echo -e "GET /headers HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: s-07a0552a-e09a-4ac7-a4b7-f036921f99d7.cf-workloads.svc.cluster.local\r\n" | openssl s_client -quiet     -CAfile /etc/certs/root-cert.pem     -cert /etc/certs/cert-chain.pem     -key /etc/certs/key.pem     -servername s-07a0552a-e09a-4ac7-a4b7-f036921f99d7.cf-workloads.svc.cluster.local     -connect s-07a0552a-e09a-4ac7-a4b7-f036921f99d7.cf-workloads.svc.cluster.local:8080 -alpn istio

Mike Bifulco • Feb 21 '20

I launched! Well, I announced the start of something, at least, and I'm really excited for it all.

I put out...a podcast, and a website, and a roadmap, and a blog post explaining it all -

Building my passion project with radical transparency - Introducing Pistola

Putting my project out in front of people is an experiment, but I'm hoping it'll garner me some support, and help keep momentum high. 🤘

Started learning VueJS!
Just in 4 days, I've learned things such as (single file) components, computed and basic methods, watchers, passing data around and between components, and working with them, conditional+list rendering, props etc. And today I have learned the basics of Vue Router :)

VueJS is truly amazing, I'm loving it!

The next big step is to learn working with back-end while using VueJS for front-end

Robert Pearce • Feb 21 '20 • Edited

Gave praise to folks at work
Published a post on map that took me so long to finish.
Fixed an issue with my local nix package manager that has been bothering me for a couple of weeks

Pierre Bouillon • Feb 21 '20

I made my first post on #showdev for my very first published library MqttTopicBuilder
I'm still learning so many things this is very challenging !
I also registered with a friend for a huge coding challenge and we are pretty hyped !

Ian Jones • Feb 21 '20 • Edited

I wrote the beginnings of an introduction to clientside web APIs!

Heres the first one :)

I've just started to learn C. I'm pretty excited about it 'cause it can help me to study other topics later.

zakwillis • Feb 21 '20

Last week, I put up a post dev.to/zakwillis/do-you-know-of-a-...
.
The post was asking if anybody knew of a tool to scan inboxes, encrypt and manage data, and save the results to a database or the like so I could do reporting on it.

In the end, I wrote my own tool in SQL Server, C#, using Mailkit. Planning to release it as a software tool. Took around 3.5 days to get core functionality working.

Matt Eland • Feb 22 '20

I got accepted to speak at Stir Trek, my "home" developer conference. This was my first time applying to this conference and it'll be an honor to speak there on May 1st. This will be my second talk at a conference.

I am starting a new data scientist position on Wednesday! Very excited for the new challenge.

Also, my blog alexgonzalezc.dev is starting to get some regular visits. 🚀
Now I just need to start cross-posting to DEV. 💪

Ben Lovy • Feb 21 '20

I squeezed out a responsive webapp with a database and everything, from blank page to working demo, in under 24 hours without using a framework. That's a first, timing-wise.

invot • Feb 21 '20

Zebra's DataWedge API - performing a scan doesn't automatically update the view in an Angular application. ApplicationRef.tick() saved my sanity.

Adam Crockett 🌀 • Feb 21 '20 • Edited

I am leading a React codebase (by default) and I have barely wrote any react, Angular and Vue but never React. So now I'm feeling pretty pleased to have something displaying on a document I am working on that almost works.

Muhammad Hamza Hijazi • Feb 21 '20

Integration of Node Rest API with ReactJS

Jake Wesorick • Feb 21 '20

Learned about progressive web apps and created a mini app that can cache all data loaded through an api to a local IndexedDB! 💪🏻

I got a section done on my personal project! I didn't get a chance to test it, so it's not complete, but I'm happy to have gotten to this point! My schedule has been a little bananas lately.

Henricus Louwhoff • Feb 22 '20

With only a couple of months to the launch date; the name for our project!
