Working with others

    This week our course was given the task of creating a cli command, which included our code being reviewed by one of my classmates. Initially, this gave me some anxiety as sharing my work with others is not my strongest suit. Nonetheless, I created a post asking if anyone was looking for a partner and Michael Appeared.

    It turns out that having someone look over my work was much less scary than I had initially anticipated. Working with Michael was actually fun, and having the opportunity to look over someone else's work was a great learning experience for me. 

    With another pair of eyes looking at my code, Michael noticed errors and instructions that I was not addressing. Some instructions I had forgot to mention include the fact that my program requires bash. It did not occur to me that most of us live in a Windows Operating System. Another missing component was my Blog link in my READme. I had forgotten to include a link to my blog! As soon as Michael notified me he was done his assignment, I cloned his repository and started working on it right away. Michael did his project in python, having previous work experience with python I immediately noticed some issues with his READme file. Michael had forgotten to remind the user to create a virtual environment to download the needed dependancies. 

    All in all this task has given me the confidence to work in open source and change the world, one pull request at a time. 

    I would like to say thank you for the Constructive feedback Michael! I guess it takes another set of eyes to point out what we missed. I have resolve these issues and I look forward to working with you again! Thank you for your help!

Release V0.3 Part 2

Internal Project Contribution In the past and currently, I have worked on several issues within the Telescope community. At first I was worried about understanding other peoples code. However, after looking at a few issues and spending some time on Telescopes repository, I noticed that I could contribute to some of the issues that our community was facing. In total, I worked on three different issues all ranging from different skill levels, the easiest being the documentation update. You can check out the changes that were implemented here . In order to update the documentation, I had to read up on all the different types of logging. I excluded the unnecessary information from Telescopes documentation to accentuate the important details about how to implement the logger. The documentation update got merged fairly quickly, this gave me a sense of relief since I was worried that I would not be able to get a commit in before the due date. Completing the required pull requests for Rel

Paving the Way

Sorry my blog hasn't been updating recently, Im so busy getting ready to get in the groove back at home. Im not going to lie the vacation life is great! Waking up at 3pm, taking baths, and the food is ready when I sit down at the table. It's a privilege I take for granted.  Since writing a blog post helps me take a minute to reflect on the experiences I have been going through, I will keep making these blog posts. In addition, I noticed these blog posts encourage me to acknowledge the accomplishments of today, keep me focused on the progress I am making, and finally.. I must work on articulating sentences. Here is a visualization of myself:  An update on what I have been doing. I moved back home for Christmas, I started working on my pool hall app, and Ive been applying to positions. With Christmas break upon us I would like to get some personal projects going. This will give me the opportunity to solidify my knowledge of what I have learned so far. I started working on this po
