- it's hard to do business. Especially when you don't know what to do & who you have to work with

- why, when, what of it

- flow of working with outsource team - new side project

find what fit for you

It's very subjective topics & cliche reasoning as well if you know what I mean

Why code schema is important when working as a group.

how frequent you update your project dependencies huh

Should a team enforce code review session

It can go hand to hand in some context. You just have to know how.

Overview on what stack suit you best based on your current aim

brief explanation on how an average Joe can effectively learn a programming language as a beginner

- rebranding process - additional 2 side-projects - able to make time to learn new language

Company Ground Updates:- Phase 3 to production (test phase still)- product multiple adds & overwrite- product's variant new fields (coming soon - waitlist feature, show in catalogue & search)- delivery time mapper (Prefix SKU formula based - supplier prefix)- catalogue banner updates- sub banner updates- discount additional message (giving out free stuff instead of adjusting discount behavior to support single SKU discount)- new pages created (Press Highlight, Pillow Comparison, New Arrival)Personal Gigs- new pages (Report, Landing)- update MLM points levels award (support for future use)- create bypass verification process when registering (temporary)- product module creation in progressPersonal Growth- learning new language. Not allocating any time. New routine makes me tired most of the time.

- currently full time job tasks at hand & whats gonna be in future - self-build system update - client-based system update - new job opportunity arises

- a bunch of pending stuff - able to figure out how to implement MLM feature into the system correctly

- big changes on company grounds - new income streams - planning for next year stuff

Hope to keep up to current trends

Current comp updates: - :-) Side gigs updates: - put a hold doing Order & User permission modules - switching to TailwindCSS New tech test: - edge functions - $ rpc

Things won't go as expected sometimes. We just have to be prepared & workaround it somehow. That's what I always say to myself till this day.

We've been delaying doing shoot & taking marketing content for about 3 months now. So much happen during those time already. Now finally able to make them. 

Started doing web development process right now. Things are moving quite slow & steady. Cause I'm code this by myself. Hahah. But still on track, I think...

Although I'm a bit bored since I'm just doing what I already know currently. I do feel happy since I'm able to finally get involve in the industry that I want. Really hope this journey could be something meaningful for me.

Sad & excited at the same time.

It's never too late to start anew. Even if it's just a little change.

Start-up company huh..this is gonna be interesting.

Still in process of making things work well with each other. Kinda challenging since all have to be in Typescript which I myself very new to it. Hopefully able to make them work by today & can move on the next step.

I know setup process sometimes feel tedious depending on the complexity of your project. But it got more harder when we have to do it using language or libraries that we yet learn. Or learn & apply them at the same time. That's what we gonna do this week. hehe

Let's get started!

Starting to upload Youtube videos again starting next week. Hope this time can see the end of it. Hahah

It's funny to some extend as to how I get to where I am. Let's here it.

Fun times. Hehe. Really excited bout this new chapter of my life.

It's quite hard. Since I don't know how exactly the data gonna looks as. I just take a guess & later will have to modify them accordingly once I got the exact data. 

Yet another tricky logic I've to create for our custom stepper component. It took me quite a bit of time to make it work. Still got some part need to be amended or updated later. 

Yeah. It's quite hard for me to read or go through other programmers' code. Especially when it's not in the same framework and language. I bet every programmers will face this kind of issue some time in their life. However, things can be a lot easier when you've colleagues that can support you. 

We're expected to finish this system by end of this June. I'm doing my best to complete all UI & any related logics for making the UI works as soon as possible. Took upon myself to handle the most biggest part of the features & pages. I also have to create & update system documentation along the way. Make it easier for the other developers that will be joining later sometime this upcoming week.

Done so much on the custom components creation this week. Bit of the largest portions of UIUX have been done to some of the pages also. I'm gonna continue this pace to the rest of next week & hopefully able to finish all UIUX part before begin to implement APIs into all these pages. 

This is my way of pre-setupping a new project. Do the backbone features first like authorization, state management, database & server setup. After that, we should do any custom components to accommodate every variations that it has. Then, do every page UI & lastly incorporate actual data to that all that UIs.

Easily done when you've proper doc

Integrating live chat into the website is not the challenging part of this. But learning how to use their dashboard kinda hard actually. I'm still learning it tho. 

Yup. Even when I don't want to. I still have to do it. 

I don't know why I just really don't like debugging someone else work. Actually I don't mind if I've some kind of reference of what I'm have to debug. Like previous documentation of said issue or whatnot. That would help me a lot & save a lot of time. But most just don't have it. That's why it's tedious job when trying to debug someone else work. Really not fun.

There's still one feature left we need to do before pushing everything to production. After that's done. We're ready to make the system live! I've learn so much regarding devops stuff while doing this project. Especially about containerization with docker & CICD process with Gitlab. Previously, on my own project, every time there's an update that I need to push to production. I need to manually pull it from within the server itself. And the pre-setup server process also takes time and not flexible for the long run. WIth docker, everything changed now. Easy server pre-setup process, project get updated with CICD runner installed in server & dynamically change whatever services I want to include in my project with docker images & containers. I'm actually looking forward to learn more bout writing a linux script file after this. SImple script file running a bash command is easy. I'm talking about using function, loops and etc in there as well. The reason why I wanna do this is because I wanna send an email to my own gmail and get the status of my server's cpu, ram, storage usages & docker services status as well. Then put them in excel which later can be sent using mailutils package. Or using discord bot. Anyway, that's all for this week update guys!

Done containerize our app, db & web server. Feeling very happy bout this achievement. 

I'm currently learning how to use docker or containerization with gitlab pipeline. Why? I want to know the best way of how one can automate deployment of production ready website. Previously, I've to do a lot of setup on the server itself. Now, I just need to install docker & import any environment files use on the web itself. Other than that, all are being configured using docker. Much neater right? I'm really glad I've a great seniors that don't mind sharing what they know with me. If not, it will take much longer time before I can actually use this method on my own project.

Yup. I guess we have to wait another week to finally able to finish the web. But, the thing that excites me the most is the fact that I learned a lot about docker & containerization for the past few days. I'm able to test it myself on my own project and it works! Currently I'm trying to make use gitlab's registry & CICD to containerize my application project, mysql db & nginx webserver. 

Yup. This current project is a small project actually. I already finished most of my part except the Live Chat feature. After that, I'm gonna start doing the pre-setup processes, same as this one to our new upcoming project. That should speed up our work progress by a good margin actually. 

For this project, I'm given the opportunity to setup this project however I want. And have been told to do the same for the upcoming project. Because of that, I kinda busy currently since I've, to not just do the documentation for the setup that I've done. I also have to, from time to time, do a short meeting with other coworkers that handling the same project. To give them some sort of a startup guide on how to use some of the features I've brought or introduced into the project. That way, they will have a better understanding of the setup themselves. Anyway guys, Happy New Year! Let's do our best & worst this year. JK

It's been more than 6 months I've done this audio podcast regarding the updates of every week of my employment. This episode I'm gonna do a bit of recap how I can to get this job, how I handle it & how I'm planning to continue moving forwards. Hope everything went meaningful for you. And will keep on being like that for the rest of our lives. 

Yup.
