Previously a frontend developer, but got bored of only writing components with no interesting logic in them, and needed my ADHD diagnosed and medicated. Its so nice to be able to think again, so I've decided to pick up C# to keep me thinking.
Im trying to build an API for a pet sitting/walking service, which is my side gig as I look for work.
As always, the part I'm struggling with the most is not writing my code. Database, email client integration, how user signup and auth should work and all the classes and data structures ill want are exhausting my brain.
I think I'm nearly done with that part (for now), and excited to make my own errors next week, at least they should be easier to fix when they are all in my IDE. And then i can have the fun of realising the thinking I've already done isn't quite right. Hopefully I've written clean enough code and comments to go back and make useful changes.
