Here's why I actually decided to start from the basics instead of going of jumping straight to #Reactjs. Don't just follow the masses, pick the right #developer path. #JavaScript #ReactJS #WebDev #CodeNewbie #100DaysOfCode

Wrote a full debrief on Medium documenting my learning process on this project!

Covering npm package testing, cookie security, and DB-backed sessions.

We all hit npm install fifty times a day without giving it a second thought.

So I got curios: what actually happens when you’re the one running npm publish?

Side note: This project got me screaming in the house like a mad man😂read all about it👇

Be honest: how many CEOs would actually follow the recommendation?

[Livingstone Maganya @Livingstonne_]

@hovdallakyan @AlexHormozi Thanks and that's actually the plan despite every single guru pushing me to learn React first or DevOps and land a 6-fig job. I started all the way from html, css then proceeded to JQuery, JavaScript then to Nodejs and finally Postgres. I'm now knee deep into React. Let's connect

@SidharthVijay_ Haha, well, this might convince you otherwise 👇 https://t.co/GNgbsxnmQY

@abolorreeeee Not a system design article but here's one that's worth your time https://t.co/GNgbsxnmQY

@aslambeg84 Same solution Thanos had. Delete half the population to fix the worlds problems.

@himani_0507 Postgres any day all day

@Saanvi_dhillon For the other 10% and everything after the code is written. That is accountability, debugging the unexplainable, security, and architectural decision making. And in case that's not enough, at least you have someone who understands what AI just spit out and can validate it's worth

[Livingstone Maganya @Livingstonne_]

@theo_jil Wow! Honestly, I needed to hear that. The fear of always been too late has been hunting me and I'm glad to have actually found your profile. I'm a full stack JavaScript dev, currently working my way up.

@GithubProjects Anything she wants she deserves 🤧 Tomorrow we build a HIPAA compliant Zero-Trust Knowledge booking engine and try market it. That's to pay for her pedicure & manicure if it works 😂

The most dangerous person right now is someone who understands how to code and knows how to prompt AI: True or False?

Why does everyone hate on building to-do apps to show off CRUD skills?

Juniors: How did you stand out instead?

Unpopular opinion? Relying on AI to debug full-stack applications creates more bloated, unmaintainable code than it fixes.

For those using LLMs in their workflow: How much time do you actually save vs. cleaning up AI code?

Sometimes, I feel like taking shortcuts could be the biggest problem we all face esp, devs. Once in a while, check and see the cost of it all. Case and point, read this piece 👇 #TechTips #fullstack #TechTwitter #

@axhiii88547 Yes, 100%. The stuff AI spits out only looks impressive to the untrained eye. But in prod, you still need a dev to maintain it, improve on it and make it worth it to users. Show me a vibe-coded app and I'll show you why it's going to collapse if not well-maintained.

[Livingstone Maganya @Livingstonne_]

@dhh I got into coding just when AI became a thing, and despite all the looming fear, I don't regret it one bit. Frankly, the appetite for software is growing by the day and that's all thanks to AI. And pretty soon, everyone will realize they still need devs to run their apps.
