What Have You Dev'd This Decade?

As the end of the decade fast encroaches upon us like RAM usage when Chrome is open πŸ˜‰, I thought I'd ask the Dev community; what dev projects/skills are you most proud of working on this decade?

Nice work πŸ˜„. Is the Text Detector App an implementation of Optical Character Recognition? If so, definitely link me when you've got a public build, OCR is something I'm quite interested in.

I started learning TDD about 8 years ago I guess and the past 18 months or so I have worked on

Learn Go with tests

github.com/quii/learn-go-with-tests

100% free, open source, 89 contributors, translated into Chinese and Portuguese.

Primarily a book on TDD using Go as a vehicle for learning how to do iterative software development.

Get various kind comments about it ever so often that make my day

That's really cool, thanks for sharing 😁. I'm interested in learning Go at some point so I'll have to give your book a look.

I'm most proud of the real-world effects of the software I've developed.

I've formerly worked on software for viewing and maintaining technical fleet documentation for a large public transport utility, helping them getting tens of thousands of people safely and timely to their work every day.

And currently I'm working on a prescription management system for a large chain of pharmacies in Norway. It's really inspiring to know that the software I'm working on will soon help dispense essential medicines for people all over the country.

That's great 😁, applying CS skills to make the world a better place is really inspiring to me too. I've been brainstorming projects recently to help in some way with the climate emergency.
