Maybe you've outgrown THAT job. Time to talk to your manager about a promotion or just new position.

But sometimes you see the light and know whatever that is, ain't it.

Is anyone here even remotely interested in backend and low level details? Its like every post I see here discussing software involves mostly frontend stuff and stitching together some APIs.

I'm mainly backend. Front end is a hassle to me, and I prefer not to touch it until all the code for the repeatable components are made

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
Finally finished building my first software application :snoop: I had to figure out how to add custom ico files to the .exe, window title bar etc.

Instead of trying to create a custom logo, I took the lazy route. I found a unique font, installed it into word, used one big ass letter and turned it into an icon :manny:

I downloaded Inno Setup Compiler so I can create an install package, but I'm going to wait. I'm creating a paid version of this, plus I got 5 other project builds, not including the website. I'm going to build one more project (2 depending on how fast I can complete the next one), then form an LLC.

Building software is definitely more intricate than building a website. My struggle tech startup is loosely in the data security space which I knew nothing about before I started. The hardest part of this first build was experimenting with different tech stacks that work. Golang + Wails + Svelte was the best one so far. Golang performs almost as good as C++ and Wails + Svelte allows you to create modern UI. And Svelte is super lightweight. When I used Python to build a less complex app, it was like 400 mb. This app is only 40 mb.

Making my first simple CRUD node.js app through a YouTube tutorial during down time at work.

I did PHP and Java casually so I'm already familiar

Almost done, and then going to work on my own projects

Been working all weekend on an example Android project. The book is kind of outdated but after googling finally got it to run

I'm going to pivot and ask my job to let me be a programmer

Going to make make a mobile ticketing system and/or just a mobile safe site of what we already have
