2018 Resolutions

So like many, I too will make resolutions for 2018. I made myself accountable by joining a recent #DevDiscuss on Twitter.

So letโ€™s break down the list:

  1. Iโ€™ve been active in OSS for the past couple of years, with most of my focus being on react-slingshot. I started contributing to this project as a way to learn React and at some point, to my surprise, I was asked to become a collaborator on the project. I really enjoy working on this project with my partners in crime. In 2018, I will keep contributing to OSS including react-slingshot, but specifically I will contribute at least one PR to Visual Studio Code, TypeScript and the Brave Browser. These are all fantastic projects that I use everyday, so it just makes sense.
  2. Keep on blogging โœ” thanks to this post. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  3. Start making code pens on codepen.io. Iโ€™ve never made any so yolo, here we go.
  4. Read everything I put in Pocket. This is a toughy, but letโ€™s see how it goes.
  5. Functional-Light JavaScript is supposed to be a fantastic book. Kyle Simpson is a great teacher and has plenty of books out there, i.e. YDKJS. Iโ€™m looking forward to reading this one.

Now itโ€™s time to add a reminder in Google Inbox for the end of the year to see if Iโ€™m all talk or not. ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ’ช
