Rhys Morris

Been busily learning Next.js, Strapi & TypeScript the last few weeks. Finally ready to deploy my new personal site/blog with Next.js SSG & Strapi as a headless CMS. Pretty happy with how it's turned out and now I have a place I can write😀Feedback welcome! rhysmorris.dev

Overdue as I've been slack with Twitter, but I got a dev job! I started July 1st as a junior at MyFreight in Melb. I started my career transition just over a year ago, really proud of what I achieved in that time. Big thanks to @CoderAcademy_au for helping make it possible.

@IrahRosete @CoderAcademy_au Awesome work! Best of luck with the new position.

it's been a week of negotiating and deciding between two great job offers and yesterday i accepted a software engineering role at macquarie bank. 🥷 10 months of fun, continuous learning @CoderAcademy_au was well worth it! on to more learning!

@ana_lastoviria Big congrats!

Hey tech jobseekers, so looks like there is a light at the end of the tunnel: I got a job offer! Won’t say what and where yet cause it’s an absolute dream and I’m scared they will change their mind or cancel it or something(🙈), but I will eventually, watch this space 🔭

@raydoan94 Looks great!

Day 25 of #100DaysOfCode : Great achievement today with finally finishing the updated version of my new portfolio website ! Has been a lot of hard work, feel proud to be able to accomplish this. Please visit my website at raymonddoan.me :)

@dino_coder Best of luck 🤞

@Coder_Carl Thanks I'll check it out!

@RhysMorris91 Have a look at this before digging into a stack for your personal site. github.com/google/elevent…

Finally got around to moving my personal site to a new domain name: rhysmorris.dev I'll probably look at rebuilding it with React and GatsbyJS to dig into static site generation soon. Not enough hours in the day to learn all the things I'm interested in. #100DaysOfCode

@ana_lastoviria Agree with Cat it's pattern recognition really so grinding hackerrank, codewars and leetcode will help. Try to avoid nesting loops where possible to improve time complexity. Leverage hashes where possible for the constant look up time.

Applied for a grad position somewhere and they sent a coding challenge that is a series of tasks you have to solve with efficiency, in set time. Tried a practice one today, solved it but not in time given. Freaking out about the real ones, send help. And brains. And speed pls.

@vzcodes Thanks Victor!

@thelynchpinau I feel this in my bones - so many interesting things to learn, so few hours in the day

My biggest development issue at the moment is there are some many things I want to try and build. But, there is only so much time. How do I prioritize!

@ana_lastoviria I feel you I bought the domain name a couple of months back but was too lazy to sort it out straight away.

@RhysMorris91 nice! I got a domain name last year, never got to switching, and then it expired 🥲

Successfully refactored two previous projects to use functional components and Hooks. I feel like I've got a much better handle on useReducer now, took repetitive use to properly stick. Custom hooks are still a bit brain melty. Planning to look at Redux next. #100DaysOfCode

@dino_coder I'd advise do whatever feels right for you Theo. If someone judges you based on your appearance they're not someone you want to be involved with in a professional capacity (or non-professional!) But also your art is amazing so I lean drawing 😆

Any techies looking for work? @thoughtworks are hiring lots of devs of all levels across Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. Hit me up if you'd like to know more.

Finished the brilliant @uidotdev's React course. Built a Hacker News clone to solidify the learning material. Very happy with how it turned out, especially light/dark mode and routing. Looking forward to the Hooks course next! hacknews-clone.netlify.app #100daysofcode #javascript

@CarbadoTheDev Love it! Great colour scheme and use of fonts. Looks great on mobile, nice work!

I'm official! Just launched my portfolio site. Really happy with how it's turned out 🙌🏾 All feedback welcomed. eugenecarbado.dev

Hi, I’m James! I am looking for my first front-end developer role! I know I would make a great addition to any team. Especially if that team is awesome like me! You can find more about my skills, projects, hobbies, etc. here: jamescox.dev DMs are open!

Coded a mini retro snake game project today🐍Nokia 3315 anyone? Still need to add some extra functionality, refactor and write some unit tests, but it works and does snake things. Check it out and probably break it here 😆: retrojssnake.netlify.app #100DaysOfCode #javascript

@ErinJZimmer @MichelePlayfair Hi Erin, do you guys take on many junior devs? Looks like a great place to work, but I looking at your careers page you seem to be after more experienced devs currently. Is it worth sending an introductory email to Jimmy?

I have heard/seen complaints recently from senior tech leaders about how hard it is to find "Talented Developers" in Australia right now. Reply & brag about your skills if you're an out-of-work Talented Developer, or RT if you have a job 🙂
