Went through the docs to pick up GitHub Actions and feeling good about it so far, a bit of frustration for what turned out to be simple fixes but I finally set up a workflow! Getting back into coding after a few weeks of research, excited to start building!

Wrapping up this project for now, made some really good progress! Next step is to continue learning, build out some tools, and take on larger projects. Excited for the challenge!

Logic and data flow between services is a lot easier to follow since all controllers have a similar job. Parse/validate requests, call services, and send a response. Error handling is completely separated.

Finally finished the refactor so hopefully no more chasing ghosts!!! I was able to simplify a lot of code with the built in express error handling middleware and two reusable utility functions.

Had fun coding today! Added features to my freelancing page and I’m happy with the results so far!

I’m using local storage to save general info and details about customer/business pain points. The data is preloaded in a second form used to make appointments. Still hunting for my first paid client!

Had a happy styling accident working on the navbar, going to change the styles and keep it, I think the active link looks cool with the border radius. Cascade ftw!!! 🙌🏿
