It is important to constantly be doing something. This is what I'm doing now

This is a now page, and if you have your own site, you should make one, too.

Books

Staff Engineer

Will Larson

As I'm starting to consider transitioning to a more senior role and many people recommended this book I'm listening to it on Audible. There are great lessons from the very beginning.

Building

A blog section

This website

I think spending my time writing about what I'm learning and doing is a good way to retain knowledge and share it with others. I'm working on a blog section for the website instead of sharing content on Twitter/X.

A card game for Upland players

Lands Battle

A dear friend of mine asked if I could help him to fix his game. I'm working on it and it's been a lot of fun. I hope to have it ready by the end of the month.

Migrating this website

Vercel.com

I was not happy hosting this website at Fly.io. I couldn't find a way to redirect www, because I was on the free plan I had to deal with cold start and deploying required a small fly file. Using Vercel was just 'it works' with the bonus of having a super easy deploy. I'm happy now.

Tech

Learning Laravel

Old language, new framework

I was looking for something new to learn since I'm mostly working with React, Node.js and TypeScript. I decided to give Laravel a try. Even tho I've done PHP projects before it was a long time ago so I decided to follow the entire 'Learn Laravel Path' on Laracast. It's been a lot of fun. I'm also considering to write about it on the blog.

Next.js

Old language, new framework

I'm giving another chance to Next.js for my future projects. Nothing much to say yet but using Remix required me to migrate/recreate so many libs and components that were ready for Next.
