Day 13 - Final Touches and CI/CD Feels

Woke up early, even though I didn’t get enough sleep, definitely less than 6 hours.
But I was just looking forward to the day.

Immediately showered, made my morning coffee, and sat down to finish what I had been working on.


The first version of the project was mostly done, just some cleanup work left.

I added a basic feedback button where users can drop in their thoughts.
Simple, but useful. Didn’t take too long to get that in.


Also created a complete CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions.
Now the whole deployment process is automated, it is super convenient now.
The script is pretty robust, and I am honestly very happy with how it turned out.

Did some basic testing after that to wrap things up.


Drafted out a LinkedIn post to showcase the project, will post it tomorrow.
Let’s see how that goes lol


Also, just a random thought and note, I guess Kafka is a fascinating technology.
The way it’s built and how it works under the hood is just so cool.
Definitely planning to go deeper into it.


That’s it for today.
Not a lot, but something.
