Since getting laid off at the end of August, it's been a tough market. Finally got an interview setup this week for Monday!

Also, been spending a lot of time on my blog and side projects, so very happy with how well my blog has been doing since coming back! Got a lot of people in my discord and building a pretty cool community so far <3

You did not understand me. I was asking if you will showcase your task to both companies. Your task is nice.

This week's win? Other than the web game challenge? ;)

I took a ton of satisfaction from those who got a chance to play my game and reached out to me with either feedback or suggestions. That interaction is why we make games! Also, I got a chance to really dig into the inner workings of ExcaliburJS and got a lot of cool ideas I want to try for Hacktoberfest!!!!

I don't win the game challenge and failed to promote my npm module as very usable lightweight React state management stuff. But at least I speak about jsDoc in company. Bonus made a pure HTML - no compile - POC that game responsive layout with animations ( which is missing in game )

I am on crossroads:

  • rework as no framework
  • create my no compile framework

We added an amazing cache structure to WebForms Core technology and are currently testing it in different scenarios.
Applying this new feature in one of the scenarios makes things like header and footer and right and left menus use the bandwidth only once and use the browser cache for subsequent requests.

I feel like we're setting the web on fire!
