Sarah Trummer DEV @webwithsarah

We’re just going through phases. At first it was “Is it real or is it cake?” and now it is “Is it real or is it AI?”.

Good morning devs! Another day, another chance to actually get things done, build something awesome, and try not to get completely distracted by a new side project. I’m currently working on some guides and tools for designers and devs. What are you currently working on?

Some landing page inspo 🫶🏻✨

Frontend: I need this form to look simple. CSS: Here are 15 CSS classes to style it. Frontend: But I just wanted a text box.

WordPress dev isn’t complete until you’ve bricked your site editing wp_options manually at 2am.

Today’s code was brought to you by: - 3 cups of coffee - 14 tabs of Stack Overflow - and an existential crisis

There’s “done,” and then there’s “done until someone opens a ticket about it two weeks later.”

How to feel alive: 1. Push to production 2. Without testing 3. On Friday 4. At 4:59PM

Client: We need a quick fix. Me: Okay. Also client: It’s just a small e-commerce platform with dynamic pricing, user accounts, and real-time chat. Me: So... not quick.

Client: It just needs to be simple. Also client: And interactive. And animated. And real-time. And 3D. Me: So like... a Pixar film but for $200?

Interviewer: What’s your biggest strength? Me: I can center a div without Googling it. Interviewer: You're hired.

You know it’s bad when the error message is more confusing than the code itself.

Don’t compare your progress to others. Everyone’s journey is different. Focus on your growth, your path, and keep moving forward.

99% of web development is just adding console.log() until you figure out what’s going on.

Designer brain: make it beautiful Developer brain: make it functional Me: make it work before I forget why I started this

Me: Let’s add dark mode! Client: No one uses that. Me: Sure, okay.

The "cloud" just means "someone else’s computer" and I love how we all pretend it’s magic.

Good morning devs! Today’s looking like a full-stack kind of day. A little bit of everything, and all of it important. Busy, but motivated. Let’s get things done.

Client: I saw a website with a cool effect. Can we add that? Me: Sure, send me the link. Client: I don’t remember the website, but it had this vibe.

Writing code: Step 1: Create a function. Step 2: Spend 4 hours trying to figure out why it doesn't work. Step 3: Realize the issue was a typo.
