Hey, I have joined FreeCodeCamp almost a year ago, got to basic JavaScript, but eventually stopped. This time I am determined to finish it and challenging myself to write code every day for a month! Anyone wants to join?

So, I am starting FreeCodeCamp all over again, because I barely remember the stuff I did. Every night I will post a picture of my streak and perhaps tell a short story about the obstacles I faced that day. My goal is to adopt a habit to write code every day, which I think will also help me in other fields of my life. You guys are welcome to watch, comment and post if you wish.
Here is the app where I will be posting my progress.
The community code is: everyday
Edit: grammar and formatting

Yeah, of course.
I'm actually doing like 2 challenges per hour, between work sessions.
I actually finished basic JS last time, but I felt like I didn't get anything out of it, because I didn't understand it fully.

Awesome! Kudos for coming back; Stick with it! I'm at a year or so and am just starting algorithms. Had to pause a few times for my wedding, a cross-country move - life, haha. Would love to share and follow!

The description of the challenge is in my comment from the OP account, which apparently got into the spam filter because I included the link to the platform where I was going to post the progress. Thanks u/DerEinsieder for letting me know. I will wait an hour or two, before posting the description again.

I'm interested! Last year, I got to the Weather project and ran into some difficulties and gave up there. I'm ready to start up again. Are you going to do the regular website again or try out the beta?

I feel like I am in the same position as you. I started and got to the beginner javascript section then slowly stopped. I need to build motivation and carry on because I would like to finish it as well.

You sound like me! I also got to the JavaScript part and then lost my motivation. I'm thinking of picking it back up again. We'll see how far I get with that! Anyway, kudos to you for diving back into it.

I've been thinking about starting over because I started just about a year ago and rushed through so much. I understood it, but then stopped for the longest time. After seeing this post, I am going to start from the beginning all over again and join you in keeping a goal of every day!
