I share a story of how I did not get paid for doing a 3 months long project for a client.

I met up with Erik to discuss his open source projects (Redux Form and Final Form), his personal experience with the open source community, and some key React concepts. Note that this was recorded outside on my phone, so apologies for the background noise and overall audio quality.

This is a repost from The Shipcast, a live streamed podcast by Sergio Mattei. We talked about and shared some useful knowledge/advice around these topics:

Don't stagnate with your learning! I explain why continuous learning is important, and how to continue enhancing and adding upon your current skills.

Marketing should not be annoying, and yet many companies still employ annoyance as their primary marketing strategy.

Pradip and I share what we learned from both of our podcasting journeys.

It's always amazing to see an idea come to fruition, but these launches were my biggest and most exciting ones.

Copying and pasting code is something that every developer does, but there is a misconception around not being a "real developer" by doing so. Also, if you do copy code, what's the best way to do it to keep proper maintainability of your codebase? I provide my thoughts on everything in this episode!

I'm joined with my second guest, Leon Hitchens. Join us as we discuss Search Engine Optimization (SEO) beyond the basics of what most developers are familiar with.

UX typically refers to regular everyday users, but what happens when you build an app for developers? I tackle this topic in terms of misconceptions, benefits, and ways to provide good developer UX.

I'm joined with my very first guest, Kyle McDonald. Join us as we discuss websites and whether they're still important in the world of social media.

Why you should ditch jQuery, and how.

Learn why and how to improve your communication skills, whether you're a developer or not. Note: Sorry for the high pitched background noise in part of the episode! It was coming from outside and I didn't realize until editing.

If you are in the tech software industry, then you may have heard of a UI framework called React. In this episode, my goal is to provide a non-technical overview of React and explain why so many people are deciding to use it.

Over time, I learned that it takes more than just posting some links on social media to build a reputable brand. You have to release content that is also native to the platforms that your audience actually uses.

DevOps, short for developer operations, is the process that includes everything needed to launch a website or app. On this episode, I talk about why I hate managing servers and how I deal with deploying my apps.

Server Side Rendering is a commonly confused topic, so I'm back with a new episode to explain the benefits and a bit on how it works.

I'm back! This time I share how you can host your websites and apps absolutely for free and what services I used.

On this episode I talk about IronMic, a new service that I built to solve my own problem and hopefully others' as well.
