Summary in 2018

It’s an honor to be the Denver nuggets writer of the Year, a little vanity satisfied, of course, I should be the worst writer of the year.

Those of you who know me know that I started my career last year, and I have far less experience than the other authors on the list. Of course, in order to continue to list next year, this year will continue to export articles and open source.

Here are a few things I’ve done in the past year that changed my career path:

  • At the beginning of this year, a React project was opened and gained a bit of popularity
  • When I was in Jin SAN Yin Si, I found that all kinds of classics emerged in an endless stream, but the routine was to explain a single topic, which had little effect. But I also found a huge business opportunity from here, the content of the interview will be a lot of people interested in, why not collect these big factory interview questions, and then extract the knowledge points, and then do a detailed description for each point, after all, only understand the knowledge points, in order to conquer all kinds of interview questions. So I spent nearly half a year building an open source project of more than 100,000 words, which has received 14 K Stars so far
  • The initial success of the open source project was so good that I struck while the iron was hot and moved to a company I liked
  • Continue to output articles in nuggets, improve their popularity
  • I published a gold-digging volume, which sold 4,000 copies in less than a month, and received good reviews, and many publishers contacted me to publish the book

From the above things, you can find that I focused on building my personal brand last year. Once I improved my personal influence, many things that seemed difficult before could be easily solved.

Now I gradually like writing, because writing can help me sort out and consolidate knowledge, help others, let others recognize me, and improve my influence. Why not do such a thing?

If you also have a writing idea, I can offer a little personal advice. First premise is to read English articles, then you can go to read some good articles and try to translate articles or understand the article and to understand the content of the output, this way can have a writing the adjustment period, because most of the people may have the idea of a writing so but I don’t know what the output content.

Then I want to talk about some of the thinking behind what I’ve done over the past year, in the hope that it will inspire you.

First of all, I used to do native development, and I learned the front end because I wanted to expand my personal technology stack. In order to improve my level, I tried to do a React project. Of course, THE back-end was implemented by myself. Generally speaking, IT was Demo level, and I also tried to open source. At this time, I made up my mind to continue learning.

Next came the job-hopping season of Jin SAN Yin Si, and found that the article was too hot, so I came up with the idea of starting from the knowledge point and opening source a project. For this idea, I thought at the beginning: starting from the knowledge point, I can continue to consolidate my foundation, and also touch some knowledge blind spots, and then make up these loopholes. Such continuous writing will surely lay a good foundation for me.

As time goes on, I am more convinced that my idea must be correct, because I have made up some blind spots in knowledge from continuous writing, not to mention the vast number of readers, once open source will definitely be popular, and the subsequent results have also verified my idea.

As soon as the open source project took off, my inbox was flooded with interview offers, and I jumped on the hot iron and landed a job at a company I liked.

Later, I continued to do some writing to improve my influence. Then in October, I started to write a book called “The Way of Front-end Interview”. The content was extended from the previous open source project, with more comprehensive and in-depth knowledge points.

This small volume after nearly ten bosses of review, subsequent reader’s evaluation is also very good, is now updated progress is really slow, but also for more years ago something special, write technical articles and is not an easy thing, in order not to hear, I can only slow down the progress, please also understanding the readers.

All in all, there is a strong purpose behind everything I do.

  • Open source React to familiarize yourself with frameworks
  • The open source interview program is designed to build a solid foundation and influence to move on
  • Writing is also about improving yourself and your influence
  • Writing a small book is also about self-improvement and influence, as well as financial gain

Therefore, it is better to have a purpose behind every thing we do in our spare time, and ensure that the purpose will be achieved in a large probability. Only in this way can it be worth spending time to persist in doing one thing, because spare time is really precious, so we must try our best to complete the things that delay gratification. A year ago, I was nobody. After a year of hard work, I at least have a group of their own fans to affirm themselves, then I do these things, it is worth me to continue to do.

Output outlook for 2019

Write more while you are young, and when you are old, you won’t be able to move

  • A series called “Relearn JS” is planned, with a lower-level bias
  • Open source a component library, of course, I know it’s not going to be as good as the existing ones, so I’m going to do it in a different way
  • Some other fragments of the article, the content may be biased towards the Node section
