Day 26. I’ve spent most of the day freeing up disk space on my laptop. It was working very slowly so, for example, I’m currently deleting all emails received or sent before 2015. Fun times. Yesterday I discovered that Area 51 and Roswell are not the same place#30daysofnetworking

Day twenty. Making progress converting my app to native from web. I learned that apparently you have to copy your images over when you create a new project. Good to know🤣 Sometimes focusing on the big things can make you forget the little things. #30daysofnetworking #100devs

Hyped To Share @DThompsonDev and I started "The Programming Podcast" I've wanted a space to talk coding, careers, bring on guests, and go deep on technical topics in an approachable way. Now I'm blessed to partner with my brother each each week to make it happen! Ep. 001 ⤵️

Today I attended a live virtual talk on networking online. Tonight I’m continuing to work on improving my baseball app styling. Yesterday somehow several key components got erased so that was fun. Version control to the rescue! Thank goodness for GitHub! @LeahTCodes @leonnoel

My new business cards came, now including a QR code, so I’m sharing that I am open to freelance software development work. If you could ask anyone you know who might need a website or any help with an existing site,believe it or not, I actually do know what I am doing with this.

#100daysofbarkamigos #day18 Had a great coffee chat with someone I networked with on LinkedIn. I also dealt with an issue I was was having wit github. I wasn't able to push code to github for some reason. I found a pretty brute force solution, so it's all good.

#100daysofbarkamigos #day17 Still going. Not a very interesting update, but somedays it's better than nothing.

#100daysofbarkamigos #day16 My goal this week is to connect my backend and frontend so when a user fills out the profile form and hits submit, it will be stored to my db. Stretch goal would be to then display the profile data to the user.

#100daysofbarkamigos #day15 For some reason vscode isn't letting me push to github. Good times. In better news I created a new sql db for BarkAmigos.
