I've been so excited about my new job and getting to use my dev skills that I've been finding it hard to unwind. It's important thought youtu.be/BKQVqzhnP8I

So I had enough of a server to start the client of my little Typescript project. i present my implementation of a protected route for react-router-dom in TS. The plan is to use a redux store to hold the user for the the user prop.

So the app is supposed to be a place for a friend of mine to write the rules for a RPG adapted from FATECORE he is developing as discord is not super convenient. CRUD actions for sections or chapter headings working now. the more i use TS the more i like it.
Got my typescript api to auto deploy to heroku from github. #gitflow #FeelsGood Also got my mongoose models working with TS after figuring out that you have to declare the type of "this" in functions. That was a headache for a bit. Haha. No pics this time, on the train.
So after receiving some constructive criticism last week, it became apparent that I was only using JWT's coz they're trendy. Ripped out that in favour for a cookie based session solution. More adventures in Typescript to come!

Couldn't help myself, I'm now storing my user's and jwt's in mongo. Criticism welcome if anyone more experienced in TypeScript x Node.js wants to pick apart my noob code. github.com/xxKeefer/omen-gui…

My TypeScript project is coming along, more faffing around & now I 🔐authenticate with ✨JWT to an 💩Array. This week I'll move that into a 🍃MongoDB.

after much faffing around i was able to get eslint configured with prettier and typescript. made a hello world server in TS. hahaha first foray into typescript baby steps.

Customised my shell prompt with Starship.rs last night. Can highly recommend if you want a bit of functional flair. You can find a tonne on Github but here's my .toml config for it: gist.github.com/xxKeefer/947…

It's so silly but i love that my admin routes i just wrote worked like with minimal bug hunting. i'm learning. 🧑‍💻

🤯🤯🤯 THIS IS A NATIVE BROWSER FEATURE!? 🤯🤯🤯
#HTML/#UX tip for today: Setting `autocomplete="one-time-code"` will allow your user to fill the input field with the auth code they've just received - without the need to manually copy it from a message.

Woooo! Woke up super early because I fell asleep putting baby to bed, but put it to good use! After some struggles got PPMv2 deployed! ppmv2.netlify.app/ Only the guest features currently work, go have a go! my Spotify ID is 12179586444 if you want to compare playlists!

The backend API is hosted on Heroku, while the frontend React app is on Netlify. It was a bit of a struggle to get it up but finally got it. Next time i do MERN i think i'll structure the files differently and deploy both at once though.

Thanks again to @simo_sultan for being my partner in crime. Super stoked at stealing 2nd Place for @CoderAcademy_au's Express Hackathon! I didn't think we'd do it by rewriting our vanilla JS app from last time in the MERN stack but there you have it! Learnt so much over 3 days!

Yo! freecodecamp.org is awesome. If your learning, you'd be silly not to go take a squiz. #technewbie #beginners
