I finally reached my goal with my blog's page speed optimization
I spent my whole day optimizing my blog's pages, and honestly, it made sense to spend my day on that. At the same time, it was also a productive and really interesting refactoring of my codebase that helped me improve my programming skills. It gave me unexpected but successful results, and I finally reached my goal according to Google PageSpeed. I also noticed and could actually feel how my pages had started loading much faster.
To reach my goal, I had a very cool AI assistant called Cursor, which was developed to help with programming. Of course, I had already heard about it before, but I hadn't really used it properly on my projects. So yesterday I paid 22 euros for a subscription and decided to try it during my refactoring process, especially to optimize both my backend and frontend technologies.
I also finished an older feature that I had started developing: a GitHub-style calendar for post dates. When you click on the dates, it opens a GitHub-style calendar that displays the activity for those days. I think it's so cool and enjoyable to build pretty, interesting features like this, especially when you genuinely enjoy the development process and get satisfaction from it.
