All wins count — big or small 🎉
Examples of 'wins' include:
Have a wonderful weekend!
There is a link to it in my comment. It allows you to graphically design and modify your database by applying high level constructs such as buttons, checkboxes and select drop down lists, instead of having to write SQL DDL manually.
It makes it 100 times easier to create a database, at least for me. It supports SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite …
An article of mine (about the what how and why accessibility) was features in the latest codenewbie newsletter under the ressources section for the first time 😎
My blog post was published on the stackoverlow blog. An interview I gave was published. I had covid during the interview and it shows a bit...
"How observability is redefining the roles of developers" I embedded a direct link in the comment.
It's a long term journey of researching on CSS Grid for Modern Layouts. Finally🎉🎉, This week I completed 25 modern layouts and published as 25 Extremely Modern Layouts using CSS Grid at Dev.
I created settings drawer for TemplatesKart website and wrote article about it.

Congrats on winning Medea! Would you consider entering our contest here on dev.to ? (Only one entry so far and it ends July 31) We are not sure how to drive traffic to it.
This week was pretty rough for me. I was doing database migrations and documenting APIs which were built pervious. But at last, I have completed both tasks🙌
Showed our experimental app to a potential user last week and the next day he emailed us saying a colleague saw him using it and said "what the h*ll are you using?! This is amazing!"
He shared that quote with us and it was great to hear.
Also, one person has entered the planning contest we posted on dev.to ; and he left a very encouraging reply.
I was on a personal project, i was stuck on how should i implement this logic, felt like giving up. after giving some time away from the screen (probably 24hrs). i was able to implement it. i still dont know how i did it, i mean it was incredibly easy when i took a long break.
My company gave me (and all my colleagues) a wellbeing day on Friday, so I went to a spa with a friend. It was so relaxing, I realized I truly needed a day off for myself. 💓
Deployed my FYP to heroku today. You can find here even though there are some stuff I have to fix.
Heroku has limitation of removing local file once a day. I am writing some data in local file system for a reason.
My win this week was update my GitHub repos with something that I learned this week. Take a look at github.com/fugazi/carbon-love-sele...
I was really inspired by Blinks summary of The Pursuit Of Excellence by Ryan Hawk (Free Summary). Here are my wins:
I was successful in creating a FQL query (FaunaDB), which looked up a document and based on some IDs within the document, I could select those and look up the corresponding document from another collection. Very helpful for what I was trying to do.
I learned that Salesforce (something I simply knew existed for ~5 years) is more than just Business™ stuff, there's a whole Salesforce Developer branch/path within. And believe it or not, there's a whole amazing, helpful community tied to it just like web development! Pretty neat. Another direction to stretch some Java and JavaScript skills 🧑💻
Finally receiving my SC-100 Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect Expert congratulatory email and badge 10 days after receiving my beta exam score.
I found a girlfriend - best side project I could involved in so far ;) dev.to/meatboy/comment/1ph59 so it took about 1.5 month in total.
My team did officially kickoff the arrival of Quarkus to our stack with the release of an opensource & opendata related API see below for more details :
I officially launched my multiplayer word game, Chronagrams.
It's built with TypeScript, React Native, and Python.
Our win was to release the SQL database designer - And 2,000 people reading about it here at DEV :)
