Merry Christmas! This was a tough year for me personally but I’m optimistic for 2024.
When I find myself feeling like an imposter with X technology, I build a small project with X.

This pattern has helped me build the confidence that if I don’t know X, I know I can figure it out.

I built a URL shortener to teach myself serverless. I'm working on adding link metrics and custom domains. I'd like to eventually use it for tracking link clicks in email newsletters, etc.
