Lots of shading was done today 😎🔥

The soondubu was much needed after walking through NYC with friendos in the cold and visiting the Brooklyn Bridge 🥶 (it was so windy I felt like my hair was in one of those MV 😅)

Wish the cold didn’t bother me like Frozen’s Elsa, but alas I’m more like Anna trying to survive 😅

If I was a rapper, what would my rapper name be? R-man? Choi-R-zee? Regardless I would struggle to be a good rapper, but with practice maybe I could become a decent rapper lol 😅

I FIXED IT 🔥 I ended up live debugging w/ my clients, & the solution was such a stupid easy fix too 🤦 Turns out, you can't do authentication in sandbox mode. BUT you can only use the test credit cards provided by SquareUp in sandbox mode. So I had to test with my actual credit card w/ 1 cent lol

That debug life doe 😅 Implemented payments but found an auth error blocking them and I can't figure out what's causing it from the really ambiguous error messages 💀 Logging through my Oauth flow didn't really help either, so I'm totally looking forward to working on that tmrw 😆 #buildinpublic

1/4 🧵 TL;DR Implemented OAuth with the SquareUp SDK, but couldn't quite find how to grab the current users data like their email or car appointments and info 😅 Tomorrow I'll be working on payments and implementing the schedule backend endpoint with frontend 🔥 #buildinpublic

Rainy and cold weather calls for a delicious bowl of ramen 🍜 The bowl was empty before I realized it 😂

Virtually listening to @thebethanyann.bsky.social's first talk on @thisdotlabs.bsky.social Women in Tech Mentoring's online event where she shares about Product Engineering and why it matters - building the right things, building faster, and that most users care if your product works

Got the backend grabbing the clients availability; will be tackling this and styling appointment time availability and functionality tomorrow Following up after setting up /packages api backend, updated the frontend passing the package structure with context #100devs #buildinpublic

Had a lovely chat with Sara B from #100Devs as we got to talked about reading (and my lack of it lol) after getting to meet them at #CYC and getting to hang IRL 🙌

My progress so far on my current drawing project. Pretty happy with how the shading is far, but now the tricky part is handling contrast so it’s not just pitch dark shading 😅

Long awaited How to Backdate GitHub Commits and Automate it with Python YT video tutorial with accompanying medium article premiering now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPbu...

Despite Squares particular naming conventions choice and out-of-date docs, I was able grab the requested data by my employer 🙌 Really highlighted the importance of good up-to-date docs with good naming conventions Now I gotta update my frontend logic😁 #buildinpublic #100devs

From math teacher to DevRel ✨ I had so much fun being on the Laravel podcast and sharing my journey. Make sure to listen to the episode! Links: share.transistor.fm/e/50090fe4 and youtu.be/cHnIeDwb9IE?...

Got good styling base for the appointments page 🔥 Still navigating the docs to understand Square's data structure better 📄 Used Postman to help debug my backend API REST endpoints 🪲 Tomorrow is more backend & cleaning styling 🙌 #buildinpublic #100devs

Hanging with the @torc.dev gang as @marciac95.bsky.social shares valuable freelancing insight with real examples of what she did to achieve her accomplishments with @jasontorres.bsky.social

@leaht.codes absolutely slaying as usual 🔥

Went on a mini outdoor adventure - thankfully the weather cooperated with me and it wasn't too chilly 😅 Discovered a rare food truck along the way (food trucks aren't really common in my area, unlike NYC) and became quick friends with the vendor guy ☺️ (also helped nobody else was in line lol)

Chatting with @britheetechie.bsky.social went by like a blink of an eye - I guess that's what happens when you put two yappers like us in a chat 😆 From Kingdom Hearts to J R&B to K-pop, the convos went wide and deep lol So glad I got the chance to talk with her!! ☺️

Keeping up the good work with delete and update functionality along with addressing some edge cases like when the user doesn't select an option. Also addressed some errors with logic like calculating totals. Next I wanna add the Text Us button & form 🔥 #buildinpublic #100devs

Korean chicken with the fam and coding - a great Tuesday 😎 Built the CSS for the cart items and functionality for adding packages to the cart - accounting for none, one, or multiple items 🛒 Next gotta update package UI and add editing functionality 🔥 #buildinpublic #100Devs

Looking good so far 🔥 Just finished the styling and layout for the package list page - need to build out the package cart items and their styling next, but we're out here building awesome solutions for problems😎 #buildinpublic #100devs

It was a lot of fun chatting with @quincy.bsky.social on the FreeCodeCamp podcast! youtu.be/rgt5GPFgryI?...

TL;DR Got a client and had two interviews this week 🥳 Have been actively working on my client work and getting the styling, layout, components, and code architecture done 🔥 Had a bit of a hiccup in the form of food poisoning though (I'm better now)🫠 #buildinpublic #100devs

Built editing, deleting, and adding notes and adding and deleting labels with JavaScript, React and Supabase. Layout and styling still need to be updated, but prioritizing functionality right now. Next goal is to add other users with QR code scans 🔥 #buildinpublic #100devs

Woohoooooo! Abbey is so rad. And I love her voice! So I’ll def be listening to this @freecodecamp.bsky.social pod on the way to work today! @abbeyperini.dev @quincy.bsky.social

I had such a fun chat with @chrisdemars.net of @tuxcare.bsky.social at #magnoliaConf! Check out my little awkward self (and the shining twins costume I mentioned lol) 😁 (🧵) 👇👇👇

Walking down nostalgia lane with the fam 😁

Lunch with the fam - feeling healed with all the wholesome energy ☺️

1/4🧵 TL;DR While building the editing, deleting, and creating notes features for a selected connection, it made me reflect again on how my data is structured - but also I realized this is my bad habit where I keep wanting to go back and "perfect" things. #100devs #buildinpublic

1/5 🧵 As I have been building throughout the years, I've been thinking more about how to properly plan it out. The struggle I have been having is handling iterations for these plans and updating those plans. #100devs #buildinpublic

#100devs yappers unite with @amandamayfield.bsky.social 😎 Had the pleasure of chatting with her and getting to know them better as we got to talking about solar panels, rain, conferences, and more!! Twas a fun chat~

I think this has (un)officially become a family tradition of ours 😆 The location and food quality may have changed, but the dishes we order and the people we’re with haven’t ☺️

1/4🧵 TL;DR Added QR Code generation. Tried adding camera for better user experience - may come back after shipping MVP. Cleaned up code for better readability. Added basic styling to user page. Added notes, labels, & more section after clicking user card. #buildinpublic #100Devs

Had a great chat w/ @choir241.bsky.social "The Coffee Chat King"! We shared our love for community and our tech journey. Thank you for introducing me to Hatsune Miku. #100Devs #CodingJourney #SoftwareEngineer

Ending the week strong with @jasminepvo.bsky.social spilling tea with @leonnoel.bsky.social - the highs, the lows and how she was able to slowly introduce a lifestyle changes like meditation, journaling, and tracking wins 🔥 #100devs

Chatting with @teronintech.bsky.social was a blast - found out he's from NYC and now I can't wait to potentially meet him IRL soon! 🤩 Got to talk about community and how much it has done for us and our tech journeys - can't wait to see what's in store for @teronintech.bsky.social and his journey! 😁

1/7 🧵 TL;DR Brainstormed and restructured the ConfExplorer’s data structure, updating the code accordingly. But still feel like it’s not good enough and the data and DB can be strucutred and designed better. #100Devs #buildinpublic

@abbeyperini.dev talking about GIT-ting some confidence @magnolia.boo and how to restore any recent lost work and what to do when you're feeling that #gitPanic 🔥

@roxyrodbeck.bsky.social giving her very first tech talk ever @magnolia.boo 🤩 Sharing about her why and the 6 simple steps that people can plan/implement for shipping and sharing web apps 🔥

1/5 🧵 TL;DR Additional DB design learning and updated DB design. Implemented grabbing supabase table data and handling potential undefined values. Started playing around with the layout of the user card component. #100Devs #buildinpublic

Someone tell my brain it’s okay to take a break and chill 😅 I swear while I’ve been job hunting, whenever I take a break it immediately goes “you could be coding” or “you could be networking” 😆 At least I have my Miku plushie to keep me company lol

Day 2 attempt in cooking something new. Today’s challenge was fish cake soup. Learned you need more anchovies than you think and to wrap it in a soup sock/tea strainer 😅 Solid attempt taste-wise ngl 😎
