New article : Reactivity in Vue 3: How Vue Makes Your UI Feel Alive. It covers ref, reactive, computed, and watch from the ground up. The short version: you describe what depends on what, and Vue figures out the rest.

Been musing over this for a while, here is my take on understanding Vue. It clicked for me because it extends HTML, CSS & JS — it doesn't replace them.

#Vue3 #webdev #javascript

"Think about a light switch. You didn't rebuild the wall to add one — you just installed it into what was already there. Vue works the same way. Take a regular HTML input you already know: html<input type="text" /> Vue doesn't replace it. You just add one thing: html<input type="text" v-model="city" /> Now that input is connected to your data. Type in it, and your page updates automatically. That's it. Same input you've always written — Vue just gave it a superpower." That's the whole answer. Three things make it land for beginners: One familiar thing. They've written <input> before. Start there. One visible difference. v-model is the only thing that changed. Beginners can see exactly what Vue added. One plain-English payoff. "Type in it and your page updates" — no jargon, just the result they care about.

This is the easiest way that i figured out how to phrase it

That needs a tad bit of help

Hot take: most devs are already great at networking.
They just call it by a different name.
belongs_to = your intentional 1:1s
has_many = your conference presence
has_many :through = the warm intro (🔑 this one)

New post: your network is a schema — design it like one.

So I had a moment where I was updating a script and the suggestion was broken, I debugged it in 2 seconds .... is this growth ?

2025 was supposed to be the year I "became" a mid-level dev.
No magical moment. Just a year of building, breaking, speaking at conferences while low-key terrified, and slowly proving to myself I belong. Recap : developingdvlpr.com/blog/eoy-2025/

End of year reminder: Update your brag doc with this year's wins, then get a second pair of eyes on it. Sometimes we downplay our own growth. Ask a mentor or peer to help you see what you might be missing. 🚀
Also how you messed up
