The Joy of Sharing: Why Developers Should Geek Out More

Hi, I'm Lou,

I've been coding for a while now, creating an assortment of projects from animations to landing pages, games, and responsive design. As a developer, one of the things that excites me the most is the satisfaction of creating something new and exciting.

However, one of the more mentally challenging things that I face is the lack of enthusiasm from others when I share my projects or just want to geek out about something coding related.
While I can talk about these things with my colleagues, friends, and family, most of the time, Im returned with blank stares as they either don't quite understand or simply, dont care.

Its not seeking validation from others but more wanting to share the passion and excitement I feel. I think that it's great to celebrate our accomplishments ourselves but also when you see something so slick that you or someone else has made or youve seen online and it makes you go then you look around and theres no one you can show it to!
Do you remember as a child, the thrill of bringing home a handmade project and showing it off to your parents. The same feeling of joy still exists in me today when I build something new and exciting.

By celebrating our accomplishments and sharing our passion with others, we can inspire and motivate each other to keep pushing ourselves to new heights, and let's not forget to celebrate our hard work and success along the way.

In conclusion, being a developer is challenging, but by focusing on the joy of creating and sharing our passion with others, we can overcome the challenges and continue to grow and learn in our field

What have you built or learnt recently that youve been excited to talk about?
