😮 500 commits on my website repository

#26 September 14, 2021

Hello there!

Hope you had an amazing week! I finally merged my PR adding a "view counter" to different pages with Supabase and crossed 500 commits (over ~500 days) on my website's code repo.

I learnt a bunch of things along the way, so I tweeted a thread with some more details, learnings and thoughts — in my totally-unbiased-opinion, it's a good read! There's also a secret challenge at the end 🤫
