Day 0 using Jekyll
Hi!
This is my very first post created for this Github site.
I have been trying out blog/static sites frameworks recently, some of them quite know around the dev communities, like hugo, yet i’ve decided to stick with Jekyll, since i feel it is easier to use and customize (with or without themes).
For the next couple of weeks I will be experimenting with its esthetics and general behavior, so I will not bother too much afterwards for it to look prettier and will just focus on my project:
100 days of code
My idea with this blog/static site is to document my journey with a learning process I shall “finish”* within 100 days, with a couple of considerations. 100daysofcode
1 - I will only document my progress using this blog, so the entire experience will remain public and non-social media related.
2 - I will NOT stick to the 100 days policy, at least not to the letter, as my main idea is to attempt to finish this before November 19th, as a way to celebrate my 26th birthday and close a year full of new experiences and self-improvement.*
So…How does my starting point looks like?
At the time of writing my main idea for this challenge is to learn Golang, so I can add further possibilities to my own knowledge toolbox.
Current toolbox as a sysadmin/devops:
- Linux/Windows Administration
- Google Cloud
- Apigee
- Ansible
- Docker/Kubernetes Admin
- Database Querying and server Administration (MySQL, Postgre, Oracle...)
- Basic Web development (HTML/CSS/JS/PHP)
- Github/Gitlab general usage
- Bash scripting
- Grafana/Zabbix - User
- Proxmox/KVM (QEMU), VMWare, Virtualbox
That being said, I believe it is time to move onto the actual challenge,
See you next time!
*finish: I believe that learning never ends, but setting up a good pace of “doing” and introducing a new technology or habit within my rutine via this very same blog can be of use in multiple ways.
*Update - Oct 2024 - I will not be able to finish on that date, yet I will carry on and hope to finish before new year’s eve.
