kazesberger's #100-Days-Of-Clojure-Code Challenge

From the 15th September I will spend a minimum of 1 hour per day writing Clojure code for 100 days. This will take me up to the 24th December.

As reading about jr0cket's participation in the challenge gave me the last push I shamelessly forked and slightly adapted goals for myself.

I will update via these channels:

• within this repo: log
• Clojurians Slack #100-days-of-code channel - self sign-up, archive.
• tweets with my twitter handle PsychodelicDad, including _100DaysOfCode

Initial plan for the 100 days challenge

Goals

1. Practice core api and core concepts to become fluent when it comes to handle/transform data.
2. Play with sideproject ideas like ansible-role-spec
3. Get into FE-development with reframe (which probably will be the focus of my next 100days-of-code participation)

If you've decided to join:

0. Check out the Official Site for the #100DaysOfCode movement. Connect with others on the platform of your choice from this list: www.100DaysOfCode.com/connect Also, here is a invite link to the 100DaysOfCode Slack channel
1. Read Join the #100DaysOfCode
2. Fork this repo and commit to the Log or to the Alternative, rapid R1 Log (R1 stands for Round 1) daily. Example.
3. Code minimum an hour every day for the next 100 days.
4. Encourage at least two other people in the challenge on Twitter every day! Pay it forward!
5. Change the date in Rules to the day you've started the challenge.
6. Delete the examples in the log, or comment them out, and start filling it with your own content.
7. Tweet your progress every day using the #100DaysOfCode hashtag.
8. Follow 100DaysOfCode Twitter Bot that retweets the tweets that contain the #100DaysOfCode hashtag. It's a great way to keep yourself motivated and to participate in the community. Thanks @amanhimself for creating it!
9. Important: (see No.4 above for a specific rule on this) Encourage others who are doing the same challenge on Twitter or elsewhere - by giving them props when they are posting updates on their progress, supporting them when things get difficult. Thus we will grow a community that is helpful and effective, which will lead to a higher success rate for each person involved. It's also more likely that you will stick to your own commitment, given that you will get acquainted with a couple people (or more) right away.
10. If you find a great, helpful resource that others would benefit from, either submit a Pull Request to add it to the repo, or just tweet at me (see info below)

Want to change other habits?

Check out the #100DaysOfX Challenges Project. Changing your habits you are changing your life. Remember that the best time to start is always NOW.

I recommend that you commit to no more than 2-3 challenges at a time, ideally 2. If you are doing the #100DaysOfCode which involves a lot of mental activity, try the #100DaysOfHealth, or #100DaysOfFitness challenges. There is so much more on the site, check all of them out and choose the ones you want to acquire! Languages, writing, meditation, journaling, cooking, and more!
