@DThompsonDev You’re the man! It was an oversight on my end and I’ll make sure to lookout for the diet restrictions box next year. I appreciate everything that you and everyone involved did to make it happen ❤️

I'll be the first one to say, I definitely have things to learn when it comes to food restrictions but if you give us suggestions we try to make it happen. Obviously we are running things on a tight budget but I don't want anyone not being able to eat with the group. For CYC 2025 make sure to include it on the ticket and we will absolutely try our best to ensure you have something there.

IF YOU ATTENDED THE COMMIT YOUR CODE CONFERENCE Since it has now fully been a week, What did you think about it?

@DThompsonDev I’m diabetic so I can’t eat a lot of things without raising my blood sugar. I must’ve overlooked the form because I didn’t put anything down. I’m glad you provided options for others who needed it!

@damipad What diet restrictions did you have and did you list it on the ticket? We had food off to the side for those that put it on the ticket. Like we had 4 vegans that put it on the ticket and their food was given to them personally.

During @elchefe's keynote talk (which was 🔥) we officially crossed $10,000 in money raised for charity!!! Y'all did this! THANK YOU! We will be giving 50% of the money to @freeCodeCamp and 50% to @StJude! As promised, all financial data is published publicly. #CommitYourCode

@DThompsonDev @BraydonCoyer Ugh I blinked 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Now this, this is how you end the first day of a conference! The vibes are fantastic! The community is community-ing! On a stage with literal inspirations! This is #CommitYourCode y'all! Day 1 is in the books! Now time for the social where the entire conference hangs out!

IT HAS FINALLY HAPPENED! My brother @leonnoel and I have combined our efforts to bring you "The Programming Podcast" We will be talking about careers, technical subjects, making tech topics more approachable, interviews with guests, and more. The first episode is live! ⤵️

New devs looking for their first opportunity: What would life be like without fear? What if you shared that project or talked a new person at a meetup? What if you went for a job that you felt unqualified for but pursued it anyway? This is heavy on my mind #100Devs

@LeelaBird108 @Janetthedev I hope you don’t feel like a failure. The actions you’ve been taking make you more successful than most!

@Janetthedev Thank you this is soooo helpful! Here I am reading over every detail, putting literally everything in anki, and feeling like a failure if I don't catch it all. It takes me 2+ weeks before I can move on to the next class!

It feels good to be getting the hang of arrays, but I'm definitely feeling overwhelmed with the amount of reading. I think I might be getting too detailed in the reading because it's really slowing me down. How did cohort 2 do two classes a week and keep up? #100Devs

@qwodee Love it! Keep pushing!

Finna be freelancing soon 👋🏾 #100Devs #fullstackwebdeveloper

@lexyiscoding @LeahTCodes Good luck! You got this!

Listened to @LeahTCodes chat about networking with #100Devs finally inspired me to start putting myself out there on my coding journey. Looking to follow more people in the community! 👀🖥️

@alexlikescoding @DThompsonDev I’ll be there! It’ll be my first one! ☝️

@RoxanaCodes You can do it! I’ll do the same 💪

@damipad Hmm…That would require being *less* vague….hahaha just kidding. I’ll gather the courage!

As per the #100devs convo today, I will also add that I’ve been working through the Tailwind tutorial on Scrimba so that I can include it in my React learnings. Vague but also fact filled. 🤣😁😁

@RoxanaCodes Can’t wait to see what you make with it!

@damipad Yes! It’s been great!

@LeahTCodes @leonnoel Thank you for sharing! I really loved your point about not having to be an expert in order to post. I think that part really gets to me. That changes now 💪

I’m so overwhelmed (in the best way) by all of the support from the #100devs community ♥️ Thank you to @leonnoel for having me on the 100devs discord stage for a Huntober session, and thank you to everyone who joined!

@AbdiladifG13831 @LeahTCodes Likewise! Let’s get it 💪

@damipad @LeahTCodes Can’t wait to see what you’re working on!

Thank you @LeahTCodes for giving on awesome tea spill with the #100devs community! You’ve inspired me to put my work out there. I’ll be working on some posts and I’ll share them soon 😊

@choir241 @LeahTCodes Stream! You can do it!

Attended #100Devs Huddle where @LeahTCodes teaspilled on how to network your way into a job via social media!! There were a lot of inspiring and great points that she talked about🔥 It definitely inspired me to think about starting to stream 😅

Today was on the slower side of coding, and honestly okay with that. Added separate pages for signup and login to magical cat cafe. Drawing slowly updating~ github.com/choir241/magic…

@MeridaMakesMess @LeahTCodes Even if they do ask for JS lean on the community for help! You got this! 💪

Listening to @LeahTCodes spill all the tea while working on the layout for my freelance client and praying they don’t ask about adding JavaScript (I’m on class 12 😅) #100Devs

@MarmsCode @LeahTCodes @leonnoel So much value given!

Ending the week with a banger from @LeahTCodes on how to network your way into a job via social media! Lots of amazing tips and tricks were shared tonight. Thank you @leonnoel for setting this up for the community #100devs

@TasonJorres @LeahTCodes @leonnoel Bangers only 🔥

Absolutely a banger session in #huntober on #100devs discord tonight. The homie @LeahTCodes dropping gems to @leonnoel in the #teaspill hope everyone took notes
