Waking up this morning to see my latest post - about online discourse - had gained so much traction. Really starting to feel at home here at DEV, with lovely interactions continuing week after week! Proud to be a Trusted Member of this truly wonderful community.
As far as my own journey is concerned, just about to undertake the first certification project at freeCodeCamp, which I will be writing about later I'm sure. Again, thanks to the help of the community here at DEV, I feel things are really starting to "stick".
Hey Richard โ thereโs a good reason your article resonates so much: itโs engaging, thoughtful, and centered on human interaction โ something we all hope stays positive and empathetic, especially in communities like dev.to.
Of course, humans being humans, itโs not always perfectโฆ and Iโm definitely part of that equation too.
Absolutely, Pascal - youโve hit the proverbial nail on the head. We all have a role to play in creating more positive interactions, and Iโm glad my post resonated with so many great people here at DEV.
Thanks Richard โ I really believe that too.
Even small interactions can shape the overall tone of a community, and DEV is one of the rare places where that positive momentum actually feels tangible.
I'm glad you made that post! Felt like I wasn't alone on this platform and was in tears seeing the comments I have read so far. Great accomplishments you made btw!
Thank you, Francis - means alot!
Indeed, joining the DEV Community has certainly become one of my better decisions!
Hey Richard, it's amazing that the post received the interaction it deserved, as this is one aspect of DEV.to that I value. I'd also like to wish you the best of luck with your first certification project on freecodecamp โ I'm looking forward to reading about how it goes!
Thanks, Aryan - that means alot! You're quite right, DEV is one hell of a community!
Actually completed the project yesterday - Build a Survey Form - quite happy with how it went!
This week, I had some passionate and inspiring discussions with seasoned developers, and I picked up a few badges along the way. Theyโre not the goal, but theyโre pleasant little milestones โ a kind of participative acknowledgment.
What truly motivates me is writing and sharing what I learn. The feedback I receive is energizing and makes me look forward to contributing even more.
Just wanted to say how glad I am that youโre part of the DEV community, Pascal. I love reading your posts - thereโs always something in them that resonates.
Thanks Richard, I really appreciate that.
I feel the same โ DEV has been a great place for thoughtful exchanges, and itโs motivating to know that what I share can resonate with someone.
HUGE WINS THIS WEEK
Itโs great that you have so many wins every week!๐
Thanks!! (โง๏ธถโฆ))(๏ฟฃโฝ๏ฟฃ )ใ
Wow, Aryan - just wow - so very happy for you!
Indeed, once things have settled, I'd love to read that retrospective if you decide to go ahead with it.
Either way, great news - quite the win!
Thank you very much Richard! Nothing feels better than your effort finally reflecting into real progress เฒฅ_เฒฅ
Indeed - exactly that!
As part of GitHub Copilot CLI Challenge, I got my
duckdbbrewextension accepted and merged in community extensions :It makes it very easy to report installed
brewpackages, opening endless and easy reporting opportunities (includingRmarkdown) :... also it connects open communities :
brew/homebrewNow, I have to work on the video and the article ๐
Started making a cli markdown editor written in rust. Use basic vim motions and perform a minimal syntax highlight already. Compiled under 2s.
So I think that is a good start. Whole stuff already vibe coded.
Just a moments ago I finished a small open-source project about project organization so startup incubator programs can use it to help all the participants instead of only the winners.
I joined 3 weeks ago to a startup incubator program and in order to showcase what projects the people were applying to the program they used a basic forum. The forum became chaotic pretty fast. It was impossible to know what were the projects presented. It was chaos. It was shameful because it wasn't an small organization but an important online university with 25 years of experience. They have been doing that for years and I'm afraid they will keep doing that for more time. So out of frustration I did a project organizer that help the participants to polish their ideas and establish connections with similar projects.
I don't expect that university to use the solution, but I hope anyone out there can do a better job that this university than using a basic forum that would haven't even been seriously considered by any professional 20 years ago, let alone now.
My this week win is transforming from purely Mechanical Engineering to Tech, which was always my dream to become a better version of myself.

This week, I built a basic travel planning app using Google Antigravity (3.6 Pro) and setup a custom domain (Just launched it an hour ago) - travelplot.app
I love to plan trips and use a bunch of tools but really wanted something to show 'travel time' vs 'total trip time' so I could balance out the journey. It's basic, but I had fun playing around and working with Antigravity.
In AWS I build an Image recognition application using AWS Lambda Functions and coded the function with phyton.
That was very satisfying.
Finished my new CV! I love trading and data, so I did a mix of both! Check it out here dev.to/julsr_mx/trading-cv-a-diffe...
However, I don't know if is a good idea to apply using this format or the usual way of a PDF, what do you think?
