day 01 of 1000 days

Welcome, learning from my earlier mistakes, I have decided that I should start a coding 1000 days journey. 1000 days a big time. but I want to improve daily and my final aim is to become a metaverse developer[+full stack dev]. I hope to get a decent job in the front end first by this year.

What did I learn today?

  1. I made an analogue clock using js, CSS, and HTML.

    -> I am not that good with CSS right now so I have not tried to make it very beautiful. Still, I am very much happy with the project. I have aimed to make a project a day(at least when learning front end dev). There are also a few links which I used, I will like to share them here.

    a) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38709923/why-is-requestanimationframe-better-than-setinterval-or-settimeout

    b)https://css-tricks.com/centering-css-complete-guide/

    c)https://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/t/transform-origin/

    -> I also asked chatgpt to check this project, the only thing it suggested as an improvement is to add try and catch. (which I didn't think it need, maybe I am wrong)

  2. Next I learned/practised HTML. Used some emmet shortcuts.

    many of you probably know much of it.

    eg.

     div[title="some txt" class="c1"].c3#id
     <!--this will give below html -->
     <div title="some txt" class="c1 c3" id="id"></div>
    

    I also learned about various tags/elements in HTML and practiced them.

  3. I also worked on my English communication skills. For that, I am narrating for 10 minutes on a random front-end-related article. and note down difficult words which I either can't pronounce properly or didn't know the meaning of.

    I also wrote on a topic for 5 minutes. I don't have any English teacher to check it so chatgpt comes to my rescue. Somehow it ignored my spelling mistakes and was more focused on giving different sentences(improving the earlier one more grammatically).

I know this is not a lot of work. But somehow it eats ups the day. I hope tomorrow I will be able to do more and improve.

About me (personalised):-

I'm a 33-year-old guy. That's not a big problem, problem is that I have done my graduation in mechanical engg in 2012 and since then I have not done any job. Yes, I am crazy. I was preparing for govt job which I failed. Somehow at that time, it looked right to me that I should try more. But in the end, I am here. Just trying to get back in life hoping to succeed this time.
