Why i'm doing this.

before any of that, an introduction.

my name is adnan, but you can refer to me as ad, i'm a twenty-three year old from morocco, i'm an aspiring it enthusiast and has always been fascinated by information technology and how it influenced my upbringing, i'm also a cancer survivor two years free almost, a bookworm and i recently went a school that is very much like your regular webdev bootcamps.

Back to the why

i have never written a blog before in my life, haven't cleared that out this article may seem a bit sloppy but hit a sweet spot if you related to my experience or going through it right now, i mainly decided to this for myself (sorry if misinterperted) i want to track my journey starting today and this is the first blog that will have many follow ups, now let's get to the real reason why, recently i joined a webdev bootcamp one of the firsts in our country as this concept is still completely new, having dropped out of school back when i was 16, i never graduated high school and spent most of my time laying on the couch watching tv, reading manga or books,
back in December of 2019 i was diagnosed with a hodgkin's lymphoma classic stage 4 cancer, in regular english my white blood cells sort of had cancer cells, loads of them, i went through treatment and eventually was cancer free by august 2020 i joined this bootcamp by january 2021, first 3 months were the basics , start with C and algos and data structures after that move on to webdev with html and css then learn some php to develop a full stack app with a functioning CRUD, then here comes LARAVEL and oh my god i'm not even sure if i should dig deep into flexbox or grid, maybe webdev is not for me? thoughts like this start to wrap on your head, we had a three months break and now we're back to learn the MERN stack and i'm completely lost, i felt stuck in tutorial hell and tried to chase perfection instead of learning in every project i tried to build, i decided it's maybe time to try something i was never brave enough to do so, commit publicly to 100 days of code, it's pretty simple with two rules, code for at least an hour every day for 100 days, commit or tweet publicly about what you did or learnt, so that's that.

the Path

i have already started with TOP(the odin project) curriculum and just reached the the css section specifically the flexbox one, i decided that i will dedicate 100 days of code to go through top's curriculum and try to build projects on the side and hopefully get hired a year from now or so, i will try to blog about each day of the journey to also keep track of my progress and also be able to compare myself to how i was at any point of the journey, thank you for reading through this and if you are interested or on the path aswell reach out to me here.
