Day 085 of self improvement
Best and most productive day. No classes just grind, eat, sleep.
Worked on key Node.js concepts that I’ll definitely need for my upcoming projects (starting next week).
Locked in early morning, exactly as planned.
Good night 🙂

I'm trying to change my habits.
I'm trying to change my mindset.
I'm trying to change my environment.
Everything I want to change… starts with trying.
Try. Then adjust. Then try again.🔄
Have a great Day ❤️

Let me give you one tip as an engineering student ⚙️
We all get tired of going through those endless PPTs and solving problem sets…
Especially if you’re in Mechanical or Civil , you know the struggle.
And honestly?
It makes everything click way faster.
The images above are some of what I generated while studying for my Strength of Materials exam.
Study smarter, Don't just stare at those fkn slides.

Instead of just reading and memorizing, I use Gemini Pro (image generation) to create 3D visuals of concepts like free body diagrams.

Day 086 of self improvement
Working with and connecting Express to Node.js, diving into npm and how everything fits together.
Plan for tomorrow:
→ Express + MySQL integration
→ JWT & authentication
→ Build a full CRUD app by the end of the day
Might be a heavy one… but we show up anyway ⚡

Day 087 of self improvement
Even though my plan for today was to build a full CRUD app by the end of the day, even setting up the database itself took more than an hour, so I didn’t make it.
But I’ve already set up all the configurations and successfully connected the database and server. The only thing left now is writing the actual commands.
Let’s sleep early and wake up fresh. Tomorrow is Sunday, and we have to go to church at 5 AM.
Anyways, good night 🙂

Done with CRUD, but authentication using JWT is still pending , I’ll finish it tomorrow.
Today was my first time using Postman to test API endpoints.
Let’s do this. 🚀

I’ve been building my CRUD app with JWT authentication, and I finally started understanding what actually happens behind the scenes in auth systems 🔐
This article really helped me connect the dots especially how tokens are generated and used so If you're learning backend or struggling with authentication, this is worth your time 👇

📆 March Monthly Report ✅ What I achieved 1.Learned JS more as I planned 2.Started backend development, simple architecture on software systems 3.Learned intro to database 4.Done 1 mini project [Auth System] ❌ What I Failed / Where I Fell Short 1.Again…
📆April Monthly Report
1.Learned React , My SQL and Node.js [ Still learning ]
2. Built Simple CRUD apps with authentication system ( jwt )
1. Planned to make 10K ETB from my work but only made about 4800 ETB
2.Didn't go to church as planned
3.Didn't fit my calendar deadline {Posting, start building my first app etc ...}
1.Deploying My first full-stack App
2.Start to learn and Explore about AI-Powered Apps
3.Start Building simple AI Chatbot
4.Stop work {Side hustle} and Just Surviving Final Exam
5.Posting Daily On My Channel

Finally I'm realizing that...
Algorithm writing skill is the most important part of coding , especially for business logic.
Once you get that right, everything becomes easier
Have a great Day ❤️

#DailyUpdate
Day 089 of self improvement
Learning State Management from freeCodeCamp
Used React Hooks for different use cases and finally understood the why behind them , not just the syntax.
useState
useEffect
And how/when to actually use them in real scenarios tbh I'm starting to see how React really works behind the scenes.
Plan for tomorrow:
» React Routing
» Polishing my portfolio to apply for INSA Summer Camp
(Honestly, doing it for the experience and engagement)

"The Work Expands to fill the time you give it"
And that's exactly why I waste so much time
Hope I will change this for the next first project
My plan is to finish it by dedicating this whole weekend but let's see how far I can go.
Have a great Day ❤️

It’s been exactly 9 months since I started learning tech.
JULY 31 2025 -- A day when all the journey begins 🔥
1.I learned Python.
2.Started DSA + LeetCode (solved 70+ problems).
3.Started HTML & CSS… quit in the middle.
4.Came back again, learned it properly, then moved to JavaScript.
Built 3 projects.
5.Tried different things like Study with me sessions , Weekly Notion pages etc ..
6.Learned Node.js and React.
7.Started learning databases… but didn’t go deep enough.
A Telegram bot using Python
A frontend clone app
2 simple CRUD apps
A landing page (HTML, CSS, JS)
A basic full-stack setup with React, Node.js, MongoDB
Simple login/auth system pages
But after all this…
You don't need a bootcamp to become a fullstack dev in 6 months.
You need discipline and zero shortcuts.
Here's the roadmap to excel:
1. Don't use AI to code or learn. your brain needs to struggle. that's where understanding lives.
2. Learn HTML, CSS, JS with ZERO frameworks. no React. no Tailwind. raw code. If you can't build without tools, you can't debug with them either.
3. Pick one backend (Node.js, Django, whatever) and build CRUD apps. routes, controllers, database queries. get your hands dirty with SQL.
4. Build apps WITHOUT tutorials. no "code along with me" videos. Open a blank editor. figure it out. break things. google the errors.
5. Only use google for help. AI-generated overviews in search? fine. but don't paste your error into ChatGPT and copy the answer. you'll learn nothing.
6. Once your apps work , learn WHY they work at scale. Pick up systems design. start with how databases store data (B-trees, LSM trees). understand replication, partitioning, caching.
7. Learn networking fundamentals. TCP/IP, HTTP, DNS, how a request actually travels from browser to server and back.
8. Study real systems. how does Big platforms handle 1M+ orders during IPL night? How does they process payments without losing data? Map concepts to real companies.
The devs who mass-produce AI-generated code will be replaced by AI.
The devs who understand systems won't be.

A basic full-stack setup with React, Node.js, MongoDB
Simple login/auth system pages
But after all this…

Starting from now on, I’m going all in on building.
I’ll share my project progress too, not just what I “learned” or “covered”.
But also Real world projects. With dirty hands of coding 💪💪
