✅ Open Source contribution
I just completed my first PR for the @firebase.com genkit project.
Will it be accepted, ignored, or rejected?
😅 The suspense is real, like a child waiting for ice cream. 🍦

💡VS Code: Say goodbye to manual import hunting!

VS Code's new Paste with imports feature automatically adds all necessary imports when you copy/paste TypeScript code.

🚀 It even handles exports! Time to level up your coding workflow.

✅ Pro tip: Enable auto-save in VSCode 👈

It's not just about preventing lost work - it's about peace of mind. Yesterday it saved me hours of reconstruction work.

🥹 Sometimes the best features are the ones you forget are there. ✨

😱 Ever accidentally 👉 deleted a Git branch 👈 and felt your stomach drop?
Don't panic! `git reflog` is your time machine - it keeps track of all your HEAD movements.
It's like having an "undo" button for your Git mishaps!
January 28, 2025 at 10:36 AM
🚀 GIT Tips: Instead of pushing random changes to trigger builds, use:
`git commit --allow-empty -m <message>`
When you need to 👉 re-run your CI/CD pipeline but have no code changes, 👉 this empty commit is your best friend.
🧽 Clean, traceable and doesn't pollute your codebase
January 24, 2025 at 9:28 AM
🔍 One GIT command to rule them all

Want to know exactly how many commits are in your main branch?

No more guessing 🤩

💡 GIT Pro Tip: Jump back to your previous branch by typing 'git switch -'
The hyphen "-" in Git is like a bookmark to your last branch.
It's one of those small tricks that make a big difference! 💚
January 22, 2025 at 9:26 AM
🎯 GIT Pro tip: "git stash" is perfect for those 'oops, wrong branch' moments.
Stash your changes, switch to the right branch, and apply them back.
Quick, clean, and efficient workflow!

😱 There are projects where it's nice to contribute, this is not one of them.
Closing a PR without even explaining things is not acceptable. 🙅
If you have to keep the projects like this, don't do it, thanks.

👀 Today while debugging I found a variable named __SECRET_INTERNALS_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED
Fun fact, it is 👉 inside the React library 👈
It's like finding a door with 'DO NOT ENTER' written on it. 🤣

🎯 JavaScript toSorted() is great!
Keep your original array pristine while getting a fresh sorted copy.
🪄 Just pure, predictable sorting magic!
December 18, 2024 at 1:19 PM
💡 TypeScript Pro Tip: function overloading isn't just about different parameter counts.
You can:
- Mix parameter types
- Vary return types
- Handle optional params
- Combine with generics
👏 Multiple function signatures, ONE implementation. 🦄
December 17, 2024 at 1:23 PM
👀 Pro Tip: JavaScript's toReversed() is game-changers!
Unlike reverse(), it creates new array without mutating the original.
👉 Keep your data immutable and your code predictable!
December 16, 2024 at 10:57 AM
🎯 Git Pro tip:
✅ Use git merge --squash!

Squash merging lets you maintain atomic, self-contained changes in your main branch while still allowing messy commits during development.

✨ Perfect balance between developer freedom and well-written history!
December 15, 2024 at 12:26 PM
💯 JavaScript Tip: Remember the old days of manually grouping array items?
👉 Object.groupBy is the modern way!
It's like having a 👉 smart sorting assistant that knows exactly how to organize your data.
🦄 Less code, more clarity, zero headaches.
