New month, new project!

The project itself is not interesting - it's relaunching my personal website.

The tech stack though got me very excited!

I am going to use (and learn) 11ty as static site generator as well as Tailwind (finally) 😍

My fellow makers what did you accomplish last week that you were proud of?

I want to see your accomplishments and feel your enthusiasm πŸŽ‰

Remember when you build something:

Perfectionism means never good enough and you will never be finished and satisfied with what you built.

( Message to myself πŸ˜… )

Made some good progress with my side project emojitofavicon .com

πŸ”Έ Fully converted the Vue 3 app to Nuxt with SSR
πŸ”Έ Implemented lazy loading for more emojis
πŸ”Έ Fixed bugs regarding skin tone selection & scrolling

Next is layout & UI, copy & SEO πŸ”₯

Choosing to build a project in public to learn Vue.js was such a great decision. πŸ™Œ

No boring tutorials, but real practical knowledge.

I started to learn Vue.js, now I am already deep diving into Nuxt & rewriting my app for it.

Love it πŸ’›

In the past month I continued working on my side project emoji to favicon.

These are my accomplishments:
- Added a whole list of 1,800+ emojis
- Implemented favicon code generation
- Implemented emoji skin tone variations

For a side project I am researching how to store data, could need some help.

I want to store data about emojis (maybe as JSON), be able to search that data (text) and access it from a Vue app.

What are my options (SQL, NoSQL, serverless, ...)?

Decided to finally deep dive into Vue 3. πŸš€

But I don't want to learn by following tutorials or building boring to do lists.

Instead I decided to build: Emoji to Favicon.

It will allow you quickly generate favicons from emojis and just copy the code to use it.

#buildinpublic
Need help with finding free icons and illustrations that I can use for my (commercial) web projects.

I found some resources, but most of them require at least attribution and are only semi free to use.

Do you have any helpful resources for me? πŸ™

@DadaMacroSamjho Check out #buildinpublic, I get the feeling that a lot of folks who build their products in public are very passionate about it and love what they are doing.
