So, this is my third consecutive year writing the year end review and here I mostly document my materialistic achievements, numbers and what all happened during the year.
🔗 Last year review, in case if you are curious 😂
Largely because it gives me a sense of how my year went by, gives me something to look back upon and also, helps me document my journey year by year.
I think enough is already said about how Unprecedented (probably the most used word after Pandemic) the year was, so, I'll not talk about it. It was the same for me as well.
Since, most of the year went into my day job and couple of side projects, so, let's talk about it:
You might remember that when the lockdown happened, there was a lot of anxiety around COVID, right.
And most designers were on a quest of designing a covid tracker app. Well yes, I was also the part of the bandwagon.
But, my app also got developed as a PWA. Here is the link and the blog about it.
This one is very close to me. I owe a lot to the design events that used to happen in Bangalore and always used to keep a close eye on all the design events happening around me.
So, I had this idea of making a repository of curated design events but it was parked for some time but then in Feb/Jan this year, Pablo Stanley posted about all design conferences and I was like, shit, it was my idea and that put fire in my ass.
And I also got to know about webflow then, And that's when I thought, I'll have to start and long story short, 1st of March, is when I launched it and so far it has been a wonderful ride.
In the lockdown itself, we also managed to launch a Figma plugin for stock photos and GIFs and so far, it has amassed over 1.5K installs and yes, it was a fun ride doing it with a developer friend of mine.
We also happened to be #4 product of the day on product hunt for a short period of time.
Talking about my personal life, I dated a girl and I kinda liked her but sadly we could not take it so far.
I won't go into the specifics but few things that did not worked out:
So, it ended in 2 months. Hey girl, in case if you are reading this, I wish you all the best for you future endeavours and it was nice sweet time.
Oh boy, I was procrastinating on this one for very long. I wanted to be comfortable riding a two wheeler but never got time to do that.
And when I moved back to my home town, I finally managed to practice daily and boys and girls, now I am comfortable riding one.
I had a fear of roads and conquering that was one of the things I wanted to do very badly. All my life so far, I have been a pillion rider but boys and girls, not anymore.
Cheers to some road trips now.
This July, I completed one year in design and I have talked enough about it so, Here is the blog link for details.
Hosted one and was a part of couple of sessions related to side projects, webflow and remote working:
Not a big fan of making resolutions, but here are few tracks where I would want to excel:
If you have made it this far, thanks. Means a lot.
Just in case, if you want to talk about design, philosophy, blogging or startups, do let me know. Coffee on me.
Here are my social media handles, just in case if you want to slide into my dm:
Thank you. Have a good year ahead.
