so you think you can blog

disclaimer: i want to inform you i am in no way a blogger, i'm not a great writer and i definitely couldn't code to save my life (yet) so if you find yourself 2 lines in and ready to leave, i respect your decision and i appreciate the minute of your time that you gave.

its day 9 for my #100DaysOfCode, and the progress i've seen so far is incredible. special thanks to the #Cascaderans for helping push me to learn more. i've struggled for years to actually stick with projects or even just learning skills. #Cascaderans was started as a basic accountability/buddy system to keep people on track whether they're just writing their first line of code, or prepping for their big AWS interview. let me just say, its proven to work wonders. not only do i feel like i've made tons of friends across the globe who are working towards similar goals, but i've also got an endless amount of resources because of them as well.

to help practice and learn we've split into groups of 3 to create projects based on challenges provided. our first project, a calculator with a malfunction of our choice. at first glance it didn't seem to hard but we really wanted to be creative so we created a "clear malfunction". what is it? essentially it clears the calculator and webpage of its colour. cheesy or just literal?

today was the reveal day, we got to see everyones projects and to be honest i was a bit stunned at the work people did with a simple calculator. if it did anything for me, it opened me up to being more creative and wanting to test the limits of basic html/css/js combos.

our first project as a 3 man teamview

our next challenge has begun and i'll be updating on it as much as i can.
