Day 98 of #100DaysOfCode: Spend today addressing areas of improvement that were identified yesterday so the website is looking even nicer! This evening I added a quality of life feature to the website which has been bugging me for a while which took longer than expected to add!😅

Day 8 of #AdventOfCode: I struggled a lot with the second part of Day 8 and had to leave it for a while. After coming back to it with fresh eyes I changed my approach and managed to get the values I needed! I'll admit I had to google how to do the math on those values though 😅

Day 94 & 95 of #100DaysOfCode: Worked on my portfolio this weekend. Changed the light mode theme to be a bit brighter and added an "About me" and "Project" section to the homepage as well as a new Projects page which will detail and link my past personal projects. Done by Friday!

Day 91 of #100DaysOfCode: Although it is nowhere near finished, after adding some responsiveness I decided to deploy my portfolio... Which did not go well 😅 Took me a while to realise that I had everything one folder too deep... rookie mistake😅 Plan to reveal on day 100!

Day 89 & 90 of #100DaysOfCode: Only 10 days left! Spent a great day yesterday at Experian alongside fellow bootcampers! It was great getting an insight into dev life in a company! Today I have been working on the @theSchoolOfCode final project which is coming along great!

Day 87 & 88 of #100DaysOfCode: Worked on my portfolio this weekend and managed to implement functioning dark/light mode buttons! Now, when I add the main content to the portfolio I can easily set the different theme settings! 😄

Day 7 of #AdventOfCode: I have new found respect for anyone who has encoding any sort of gambling website, there is so much to think about! I am quite happy though as this is the first time I have had to make minimal changes to my function to complete the second part!

Day 85 of #100DaysOfCode: Last day of week 2 of the final project. The website is coming along quite well, the responsiveness has improved a lot and the back-end is talking with the front end so Monday is going to see some big changes! Very excited!

Day 6 of #AdventOfCode: Today's problem wasn't too difficult... so long as you don't accidentally create an infinite loop like I did 😂 Was fun working out the problem and finding the solution! I am really enjoying the #AdventOfCode so far! 😄

Day 84 of #100DaysOfCode: Progressed with our final project today, the team looked into back-end aspects of the website and a plan has been formed. Also looked into potentially using Bootstrap within the website which in itself looks quite good but doesn't seem to like React! 😂

Day 5 of #AdventOfCode: The first half was pretty easy, but the second half had me scratching my head for a while as I tried a wrong approach! But, after spending some time re-thinking about the root problem I realised the direction I should take and managed to complete it! Fun!

Day 82 & 83 of #100DaysOfCode: Finally started developing our website projecct using Next.js 14 and Tailwind CSS! We have made pretty good progress over the last two days including implementing dark/light mode aspects. Had a couple of challenges but we pushed through together!

Day 4 of #AdventOfCode: I did it!😄🎊 I found today's was much easier than yesterday, it only took me 2/3 hours today whereas I couldn't even finish it yesterday after several hours 😂 Given how long it took my PC to run through the second half, maybe there was an easier way😂
