hey all!

i made a post awhile back talking about how i was in a tech rut, and tired of creating the same things over and over again, working with the same libraries and the same frameworks.

i was bored of it!

so last week i said hell with it and i spent more money than i should've on udemy courses, learned a lot about javascript and the mern stack (mongodb, express.js, react, node.js)

then, after a few nights of staying up way later than i should have (i have presently been awake for 27 hours) i built this thing:

dev-connector.

a small little social media site for the technically-minded.

nothing groundbreaking or super fancy - just a basic social media site with posts, comments, user profiles and all that. but it's the first thing in awhile that i've actually finished and put into production on some capacity (even if it's just heroku)

jump in, leave a few comments, and let me know what you think. :)

passwords are hashed with bcryptjs, but i've been recommending everyone just use fake login info on sign up for safety's sake.
