Shipping new features at my new job and learnt lots of new tech which I’m excited to improve upon in 2024
-
Got started on a big side project

goals for 2024
Learn more things
I’m hoping to get stuck into a few big projects in order to get my teeth into some new tech and learn these subject areas in depth.
For now I’ll be focussing on:
- React native
- AWS
- Terraform / Infrastructure / DevOps
- Monitoring - New relic, Prometheus, Grafana etc.
Write more blog posts
Hoping to write a few more blog posts than I did in 2023 particularly around things I’ve learned at work & problems I’ve faced in recent side projects and how to go about fixing them
