I mostly focus on Javascript technologies.
Creating Google Chrome and Firefox extensions are my primary focus, and besides that, I create web applications using MERN stack.
I am available for mentoring and browser extensions development
I believe that you have answered your own question. You are a tester and not a developer, also you have the title of a senior developer. That's pretty much it, administration "error". But: In my community there is saying (roughly translated): you are a developer if you are getting things done. Eather that be by some copy/paste of some code, asking a friend to do it and then you submit it... whatever it takes, just make it work. Reinventing things are not time/cost- efficiant. If there is a solution on the net, we use it. Doing those algorithms coding challenges are now done at home and mostly for fun. On the note of the bugs. Trade-off. Writing your library where you know how things work is slow, but you can debug them. Using other code is quick but.. you get the point. Luckily, we don't work alone and any bug is fixed by us, or we ask someone to fix that for us.
In high school, we had a hot Programming teacher, and we also had optional classes for students that are interested in that field. I was only interested in the teacher but the more time I 've spent with her on those classes, the more I got into the programming. That's about it.
Ehh, what can I say that others did not? Personally, I think that people that are regulars say that they don't need that email, however, people that are not regulars may just need a weekly reminder of this site. Having it as an option (obvious checkbox) can work.
Hi. Am, the product hunt link is not working, and I believe that they have a good reason that they flagged it. Never the less, you could explain the process behind your extension. What did you do with the extension to make this work? That is the idea for the next post.
