What I have done today?
✅ Finish building Dashboard UI
What I'm building in the first projects of this challenge?
I'm building a web app and vs code extension which track your time spent on coding and sent to API and then you can visualize data in the web app
What Challenges did I face until today?
✅ I don't have experience in building Restful API with Node js but I watch tutorials on Youtube and read articles on medium and then I build my first Restful API
✅ I never build a Vs code extension but I read Vs docs and watch some tutorials on Youtube
✅ Some bugs take more time than I expected and the solution is a little change in code :)
#12SideProjectsIn3Months
I like this documentation of your progress. Do you have a blog anywhere with this stuff all in one place?
Thank you so much for your feedback. No, I don't have a blog but I' planning to write a blog post about my journey while building my first product
Awesome, looking forward to it!
12 projects in 3 months is intense.
I found Martin Fowler was great for learning about REST in general: https://www.martinfowler.com/articles/richardsonMaturityModel.html
As for building them, express is great and REST is part of its genes.
The extension is an interesting idea. Consider porting it to SublimeText sometime (python I hear?) and I might check it out, depending on the privacy!
Thank You :) I already build the Rest API with express.
I'm just building MVP and I need to validate the idea first and then add more features like extensions to others Code Editor like Sublime.
For privacy feature, Maybe I'll add it to the MVP and you can customize what data you want to send from the extension to our server
