Thanks for sharing this. Can't pass this up. But now I'm in the middle of 3 courses, yours, JS for Everyone by @wil.to, and now this one. Good thing I love to learn.

The new version of my personal website is now live! I've switched from a DIY solution to @11ty.dev (largely "vibe coded"). I wanted the homepage to be a landing page for all my things - rather than being the blog listing page. Thoughts/feedback are greatly appreciated 😊

I'm posing in merch again...

This one is from @wil.to's new course at @piccalil.li: piccalil.li/javascript-f...

Like the web, JavaScript *is* for everyone.

It is a web fundamental, fun to play with and very worth learning (more) about 🟨

Nice logo work, @wil.to and @chriskirknielsen.com 🤩
