Today, I learned a bit about Open Graph Meta Tags because my LinkedIn Feature URLs for my work wouldn't show a preview image. There was even a blog written about it. Who knew?

The challenge was too hard. Couldn't finish it. Not going to lie/sugar coat it. My vacation had so many big bumps and it drained me so when I came back my brain was toast. I'll write about it thoug...

Its been a while, but it's been a learning curve programming on a laptop again. Not used to having to alt tab so much. Made fixes to issues while in mobile. Was also able to embed a YT video to the...

Showed up 3 hours early for our flight to DR. Check-in was insane! Did some work on my #Nextjs site at the airport gate. Wrote out a blog post. Some light work but got it in for the challenge. #vac...

Took a break last night and have been at it the last 6+ hours building a blog using #Nextjs. I'll be skipping graphql for now because it caused me a lot of issues trying to utilize it while trying ...

Was stuck on a Gatsby Javascript problem using graphql for hours. Rough night programming but I'm sure this is all part of the learning process. Will have to figure it out again tonight or move ont...

Messed around w/ more #Netlify features I never knew about. Used their #ContentManagementSystem#CMS and deployed a #Gatsby starter blog from #Github. Setting up the environment was brutal, but I go...

Incredible to see that there were ~30 job openings near my area that weren't looking for any degree hiring for developer positions. Most were looking for basic #HTML #CSS #JS #ReactJS #Angular etc....

Uneventful day. Didn't spend much time in front of PC. Just a few hours of #Responsive design I messed around with. I do have an issue with images not clickable when page is mobile. Will have to lo...
