Afternoon progress in full swing 💪

Me vs ChatGPT. Again.

Let’s see who gives up first 💻☕

#Day21 & #Day22 of building my #TimeManagementApp – done!

So... I kinda had to rewrite my entire JSON parser 🤡

Turns out my friend flattens JSON objects “for performance” and my parser just sat there like❓

Needless to say, it didn’t go well.
📚 Lesson learned: Communication is a feature too.

I spent both days chasing the issue and testing different solutions.
👍The good news: I’ve got a solid plan now.
👎The bad news: future me has to implement it 😂

Gonna head to bed early today — early morning coming up.
Catch you tomorrow, dev fam 🛌☕

@AndreasPlesa Progress 💪🏻

[Andreas Plesa @AndreasPlesa]

Lectures done for the day ✅

Now time to get some client-work in 💪🏻

Client work done for the day ✅

Gonna take a short break now and focus on my #TimeManagementApp in the evening 💪

Good morning, builders. ☕

Rainy day outside, warm coffee in hand, and a fresh week of shipping ahead.
No hype — just showing up, one task at a time.

Let’s build something real today.

#Day20 of building my #TimeManagementApp – wrapped.

Finally wrapped up the profile handling work I started earlier this week ✅
🔧 Cleaned up the code
🧹 Finalized JSON parsing
🔁 Synced UI + model cleanly in the user settings

Feels good to close the loop on this part. Small win — but a solid one.

Now I can move forward without messy leftovers dragging behind.

Well, that was a disaster, wish I built instead 😅

Writing code is easy.

Writing code you don’t hate 3 weeks later? That’s the real skill.

Here’s how I keep my code clean, maintainable, and client-proof — without overengineering 👇

[Andreas Plesa @AndreasPlesa]

Left: analytics
Right: backend logs + Java code

Shipped fixes, tracked behavior, and stayed in the loop. Just a normal afternoon grind. ☕🧑‍💻

How do you stay locked in when distractions hit? 👇

Good morning, devs. ☀️

It’s the weekend — and that’s exactly when consistency counts.

Discipline isn’t about working every day.

It’s about not breaking momentum when it’s tempting to slack off.

If you're showing up today — even just for an hour — you're already ahead of most.

Let’s keep building. 💻��️

I once spent half a day trying to fix a bug for a client with no success.

In the end this was the problem AND the solution 😑

[Andreas Plesa @AndreasPlesa]

Good morning, builders. ☀️

Not every day needs to be a launch.
Not every post needs to go viral.

But if you ship one thing, learn one thing, or fix one thing today — you're already ahead.

Build in silence or build loud, just keep showing up.
Let’s get to work. 💻🚀

@AndreasPlesa Nice progress! Learning is important too 💪🏻

[Andreas Plesa @AndreasPlesa]

#Day17 of building my #TimeManagementApp – not much shipped, but a lot learned.

🪛 Morning + Afternoon
Client bug fixing marathon. Cleaned up some tricky edge cases and patched up older logic. Not flashy — but the kind of work that builds real dev muscle.

🌙 Evening shift
Dove into rate-limiting logic for login/signup attempts.
Trying to answer:
– When should a user get blocked?
– IP-based? Session-based?
– What’s the balance between security and UX?

I’ll implement a first version tomorrow. Done is better than perfect.

🧠 Not every day is for shipping.
Some days are for figuring it out — and that’s still momentum.

❓How do you handle rate-limiting? Would love to hear real-world approaches.

@AndreasPlesa Yikes

[Andreas Plesa @AndreasPlesa]

Spent 45 minutes reproducing a bug that took 4 minutes to fix.

Most bugs aren’t hard — they’re just buried under bad timing, weird states, or one missing null check.

What’s the most annoying bug you’ve had to track down?

#DevLife #BuildInPublic #SoftwareDevelopment #FreelanceDev

[Andreas Plesa @AndreasPlesa]

Client work ✅

Knocked out a couple of persistent bugs today — edge-case stuff that’s been sitting too long.

Feels good to ship clean code and know it won’t break under pressure.

Now back to building my own thing.

🚀 #Day16 of building my #TimeManagementApp – late-night coding FTW! 🌙💻

Started the day planning my big summer project ☀️, powered through some intense (but awesome) uni lectures 🎓, then jumped into code after a quick dinner 🍽️.

🔧 Spent the evening beefing up my custom JSON parser to handle dynamic user input and structure data for the backend.

🧠 Challenge of the day: optimizing PUT requests to only send changed fields.
Trying to strike the perfect balance between minimal requests and lean payloads — but my current setup’s still a bit clunky 🤔
👀 Anyone in the #DevCommunity got tips on handling this smarter?
Would love to hear how you manage selective updates efficiently! 🙌

That’s it for tonight — time to crash.
Keep building, dev fam! 🔥
