What’s the crack jack?
Inspired by the code everyday article and by my new site/blog, I decided to follow the idea.
I Googled it and I found several similar ideas like #100DaysOfCode.
I found that people that were following the #100DaysOfCode was too obsessed to just commit and have the green line on GitHub and I found several different rules as well.
With that, I decided to change the rules and create my own version of one hundred days of code. And create something that was not just about commit every day.
I decided to set a couple of rules for myself:
- I set up a limit one hundred days.
- I must write code every day. I can write docs, or blog posts, or other things but it must be in addition to the code that I write.
Here I count my Blog, my site, Github, RackHank and any draft on my whiteboard. - It must be useful code.
- All code must be written before midnight.
- The code must be Open Source and up on Github.
- I can write in different languages and can do different projects.
- I’ve decided to code on the weekends as well
My plan is to create a habit of code every day.
I have been interested in changing the way I schedule my daily tasks. I used to get at home from work and pick up any of my side projects, whenever I could, even if I felt too tired to only grasp a few lines of code, and ultimately my projects didn’t get too far. As a good developer, I started several things and I never finished them …
Is exactly what I want to change with this!
Recently I found “Not learning at least 5 hours per week is the smoking of the 21st century.” The 5-hour rule
With luck in one hundred days, I’m going to make a new post with the results.
