📰 Daily dev
This week, I have started my second Hashnode Hackathon idea which is about making a music player with animation timing linked to the music.
I first added Reactjs Typescript + Chakra-UI to have a kind of "real project" on which I can use and improve my skill on those techs.
But it became complicated to be sure my first typescript code was working properly PLUS spending time to "discover AND use" Chakra it-self.
So I removed everything and I restarted from scratch using vanilla javascript. It's better for me at this time, I'm sure it's working properly without any "unknown" side effect of unmastered language/frameworks.
When I thought about making a music player, I wanted to add something nice to see as well. I instantly remembered that video from DevEd.
So I started to make SVG animation and include some animation triggered by the music player control to sync the song and animations
During the weekend I also made a small game proto in 2 hours during the Global Game Jam 2021.

💭 Thoughts of the week
Like every day I read at least 3 posts on daily.dev, I go through a lot of front-end frameworks derived from ReactJs (like Chakra-UI or Preact). Today I have some difficulties judging what kind of frameworks I need, for which purpose and will my project scale properly? I need to clarify this.
✅ Achieved this week
- CSS course on Freecodecamp
- Have music player control and animation working.
- Made a 2D game proto in 2 hours with Unity during the Global Game Jam (uploaded and post)
📅 Plan for next week
- Finish my music player properly for Hashnode hackathon :p
