Amazing Amazing Amazing š„°
Progress with my Python/Django Software Development Journey.
Project 2 (A Social Website) now complete.
Greetings to you my dear esteemed viewers who follow and like my work. I had taken off time without updating you š, but guess what, I have been behind the laptop fighting with code.
This Social_Website_Project has really taught me a lot of things like,
1. Shouting out for help on platforms I feared to ask questions in the past (https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/running-mysite-com-on-local-machine-for-wsl-linux-during-django-development/42555)
2. Giving up and gathering strength to go forward again š.
3. Tackling difficult tasks in the face of the unknown.
4. Handling task in very small fragments to realize progress.
Among very many other lifelong lesson that I will carry forward in my career.
