### Day 1: February 13, 2022 - Sunday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Git/GitHub and Python
**Today's Progress**: I've learned how to use Git and GitHub thanks to [amigoscode's video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fUbBnN_H2c)!
I've also started the udemy course ["100 Days of Code: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2022"](https://www.udemy.com/course/100-days-of-code/)
**Thoughts:** This is my very first repository and I'm very excited about all of the things I will learn! Git was a small bit confusing (especially how to rebase and using ssh keys) but being able to use it feels very rewarding.
Today's project was very easy and fast to write, looking forward to the next ones!

----------------
### Day 2: February 14, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've created a Bill calculator app! No more fights with my friends >:)
**Thoughts:** The udemy course is proving to be rather interesting! The app is simple, but I feel like it was very useful to implement other tips on how to write cleaner code. I was also able to commit the files to the repository from git!

---------------
### Day 3: February 15, 2022 - Tuesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I now have my own Rock, Paper, Scissor app!
**Thoughts:** Today it was a bit hard to start watching the lessons... but as soon as I got to coding, I was able to focus a lot!
**Link to work:** [Rock, Paper, Scissors!](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/3.%20Rock%2C%20Paper%2C%20Scissors!.py)
---------------
### Day 4: February 16, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Made a Password generator!
**Thoughts:** Today was a busy day, I had to cover this project on the next day; got it done! Now it's time to get on to the next one.
**Link to work:** [PyPassword Generator](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/4.%20PyPassword_generator.py)
---------------
### Day 5: February 17, 2022 - Thursday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've revised loops! There was no real project today, but many challenges on Reeborg's world.
**Thoughts:** Today the lesson was more on understanding the concept of loops, both while and for loops. Most of the code was pseudo-code, but was very useful to set things in my mind! I decided to link the last challenge of the day; creating an AI that can get out of a random maze.
**Link to work:** [Reeborg's world's maze](https://reeborg.ca/reeborg.html?lang=en&mode=python&menu=worlds%2Fmenus%2Freeborg_intro_en.json&name=Maze&url=worlds%2Ftutorial_en%2Fmaze1.json)
----------------
### Day 6: February 18, 2022 - Friday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Made another game app, this time is Hangman! Later on the day, I've also made the Caesar Cipher!
**Thoughts:** I've found out the course will get a bit worse after the first third of it; it apparently is outdated and without support. I'll go and finish it anyway probably. If anything, I'll get a lot of practice and I'm still quite excited about the portfolio projects!
**Links to works:**

---------------
### Day 7: February 19, 2022 - Saturday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've revised dictionaries! Got a Secret bidder app which kid of feels like eBay's!.
**Thoughts:** I feel like I had developed some bad habits regarding dictionaries from Automate the boring stuff; I'm happy I'm fixing those!
**Link to work:** [Secret bidder](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/7.%20Secret%20auction.py)
---------------
### Day 8: February 20, 2022 - Sunday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've made four, FOUR apps! Revised dictionaries, functions and debugging!

---------------
### Day 9: February 21, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Today the focus was on OOP!
**Thoughts:** OOP is not an entirely new concept to me, but I didn't study it well, so I'm learning so much! The apps that I'm making are getting more and more complex!
**Links to works:**
1. [Coffe machine](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/13.%20Coffee%20machine.py)

###### Image from: @oyasumimis
---------------
### Day 11: February 23, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Got better at Turtle!
**Thoughts:** Today's lessons were focused on creating games with Turtle, with the final objective of learning how inheritances and OOP work. I'm very happy with the results!

---------------
### Day 12: February 24, 2022 - Thursday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Yet another project with turtle, today was Pong's turn!
**Thoughts:** I feel like Turtle isn't the best way to go about making games... The game slows down due to the processes being memory-intense. I have yet to see the solution from the course teacher abou this project, but I honestly do not think I'll come back to fix this.
I also struggled a lot with working today as I felt a lot the news about Ukraine and Russia... Hope tomorrow will be a better day.

### Day 13.1: February 25, 2022 - Friday
#####
**Thoughts:** I couldn't get myself to study today; my whole attention was for the news... War rages on... Hope tomorrow will be a better day.
---------------
### Day 13.2: February 26, 2022 - Saturday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Learned about directories! Added an highscore to the snake game after learning how to read/write files!
**Thoughts:** I still need to get back in it, but I'm making progress!
**Link to work:** [Snake](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/tree/main/17.%20Snake)
---------------
### Day 14: February 27, 2022 - Sunday
#####

1. [US states game](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/tree/main/19.%20US%20states%20game)
2. [NATO phonetic alphabet](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/tree/main/20.%20NATO%20phonetic%20alphabet)
---------------
### Day 15: February 28, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've started learning about Tkinter! Made a pomodoro app and a Miles to Kms converter!
**Thoughts:** I think I will try and make a good pomodoro app! In the past, I looked a lot for a good one but it was never satisfying; fine, I'll do it myself!
**Link to works:**
1. [Miles - Kms converter](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/21.%20Miles%20-%20Kms%20converter.py)
2. [Pomodoro App](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/tree/main/22.%20Pomodoro%20App)
--------------
### Day 16: March 1, 2022 - Tuesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: More TKinter!
**Thoughts:** Today I tried a bit more to make the app look good, and I'm fairly satisfied by the result! GUI making takes so long tho...

**Link to work:** [Password manager](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/tree/main/23.%20Password%20manager)
--------------
### Day 17: March 2, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Learned what JSON files are and how to read them in python!
**Thoughts:** I've updated the password manager by adding a search option and a json database (instead of a txt). Still not quite useful without encrypting the files, but it's a good start!
**Gif:**

--------------
### Day 18: March 3, 2022 - Thursday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Today I've started playing with APIs!
**Thoughts:** I've made four projects but I found them easy or uninspiring, so much I don't think it's worth spending the time it would take to clean up the code to upload it on github...
One was a program that send automatic mails to friends (while needing permissions for less secure apps), another was a project that would tell you when the ISS was above you, after sunset (using two APIs), then an app that tells you random kanye quotes (API) and a last one that is a Quizz game (API) with an UI.
--------------
### Day 19: March 4, 2022 - Friday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Today I've started playing with APIs!
**Thoughts:** I always thought they would be much more complex, but they are pretty understandable! The weather forecast program was supposed to be used with Twilio API, but I do not feel comfortable using it, as money is involved in its transactions. I've also cleaned up the code of the IIS program from yesterday.
**Link to works:**
1. [IIS space station overhead](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/24.%20IIS%20space%20station%20and%20sunrise%20API.py)
2. [Weather forecast](https://github.com/Mochitto/100-days-challenge/blob/main/25.%20weather%20forecast%20API.py)
---------------
### Day 20: March 5, 2022 - Saturday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: More APIs, more requests, more coffee!!
**Thoughts:** These days' lessons are more on the technical side and I don't feel like the apps that are being suggested on the course are very interesting... I've decided to try and develop a Pomorodo studying app, so I'll be picking up another course on how to use Qt with python soon!
I hope the development will start soon :)
---------------
### Days 20-30
###### Image from: @oyasumimis
---------------
### Day 21: March 6, 2022 - Sunday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've decided to learn how to use PyQt to make better UIs!
**Thoughts:** I've bought a new course and decided to put the other one in stand-by for a while, as I feel like it's important to create better UIs for the upcoming projects. Tkinter looks convenient for fast UIs, but I sadly can't think such UIs could be used for real projects that could be shared with non-tech-savvy people, that also look for an eye-candy app, not just functionalities.
---------------
### Day 22: March 7, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Learned to make issues on github!
**Thoughts:** Today I've spend most of the time doing typing practice and writing code in an issue! I'll go back to Qt tomorrow morning!
---------------
### Day 23: March 8, 2022 - Tuesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Focused on Qt with PyQt.
---------------
### Day 24: March 9, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Thoughts:** I got close to having a burnout today; the Qt course turned out to be kind of bad, spent most of the day to look for alternatives. The documentation alone from PyQt and Pyside is not enough and feels messy. PysimpleGui feels like glorified Tk... I feel like the best thing nowadays is looking towards the web and web-like GUIs (in electron?). I'll start studing some js on and focus on deepening my python knowledge on the side.
---------------
### Day 25: March 10, 2022 - Thursday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Thoughts:** I've lost my log streak, it's kind of sad to see the hole in the heat-map because I'm logging after midnight :(
After deciding to pick up html, css and js for electron, I've found out about 100Devs and I will be following their course!
I will keep on working mostly in python and do it on the side; since the new part of the Angela Yu course is about web scraping and the like, I will wait a while to get the hang of HTML and CSS before venturing into it, by following the course "Python 3: Deep dive".
---------------
### Day 26: March 11, 2022 - Friday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Huge break-through with Qt!
**Thoughts:** Altough I had thought I wouldn't be able to make UIs in Qt due to the lack of materials, I finally found a wonderful youtube account that has made over 150 videos on Qt for python! Today alone, I've gone through 15 of them and already feel like I'm getting a good grasp of how things work :)
I still want to learn some HTML and CSS, but I feel like this discovery will make my progresses slower in those ahah
---------------
### Day 27: March 12, 2022 - Saturday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Working hard on the pomodoro app!
**Thoughts:** I managed to make an heatmap work, tomorrow I'll add the interactivity and the animations!
**Pictures:** 
---------------
### Day 28: March 13, 2022 - Sunday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Still on that grind! Figured out a bit more about how animations work in QT!
**Thoughts:** Finding good documentation, understanding how things work and implementing new ideas is such a mental workout! I'm so happy with the result; tomorrow I will add a breathing animation to the selected square and the possibility for them to change color! I'm so excited!
**Gif:**

---------------
### Day 29: March 14, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Small steps!
**Thoughts:** Today I'm coding from the train! Qt and its secrets are a bit annoying, but I'm discovering them one by one (even if most, today, are based on intuition more than on documentation www)
**Gif:**

---------------
### Day 30: March 15, 2022 - Tuesday
#####

---------------
### Day 34: March 19, 2022 - Saturday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Cleaned up the code and added documentation. Thinking ahout how to store the app data for fast retrival and I'm wondering if I should use or not duplication. After deciding that, I will make a fake json file to make tests on the heatmap and create the info display, to then move on to the main screen.
---------------
### Day 35: March 20, 2022 - Sunday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Got back home, which means I will use my setup and code most of the day! Today I've decided the database format for the pomodoro app, brainstormed some new features and linked the screen that I currently have to the database.
Tomorrow I will work on putting the heatmap, with its year and data display on its own widget and start working on the timer.
**Gif:**
Welcome screens |
:----------------:|
 |
 |
---------------
### Day 36: March 21, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Worked 5 hours on connecting the heatmap to the database and getting it to display different colours depending on the data.
I'm still working on getting it to work completely, as to move to something else tomorrow, but I figured I'd better log now, as not to lose the github streak.
---------------
### Day 37: March 22, 2022 - Tuesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Managed to get the database connected, but then spent some hours on adding the possibility to change year in the heatmap.
---------------
### Day 38: March 23, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Finally finished the heatmap!!! Will move to the timer functionalities tomorrow!

---------------
### Day 39: March 24, 2022 - Thursday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Brainstormed on the main screen; I will have to develop both the todo list and the timer at the same time, so it will take a while!
Today I've focused on the buttons that are going to let the user pick which to-do collection they want to use! I'm basically done with most of the code; I just have to resize everything.
---------------
### Day 40: March 25, 2022 - Friday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Today I've (almost) finished the buttons! I expected it to be easy, but I've had some problems to solve for them to work as I pictured in my mind :) I think they will take some more time tomorrow as wel, as I'm thinking about how to always use the same buttons but change their contents (and keep track of them).
Also, DAY 40!!
---------------
### Days 40-50
---------------
### Day 41: March 26, 2022 - Saturday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've finished the buttons! I'm very satisfied with the result :) Tomorrow will be for the timer and the tasks' widgets!
**Gif:**
Buttons! |
:----------------:|
 |
---------------
### Day 42: March 27, 2022 - Sunday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've debugged the buttons: now they are fully ready! I've written down the pseudo-code of the timer on paper (my eyes were hurting from using the screen and I felt very tired); I'll test it tomorrow morning and, if it works, the timer will work with just 20ish lines of code :)
---------------
### Day 43: March 28, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Had kind of a burn out this morning and had to take a break for most of the day. Near the end of the day I felt better and rested and got back to it; I'm now testing the timer's precision! I'm a bit behind schedule, but I believe I can catch up the next days.
---------------
### Day 44: March 29, 2022 - Tuesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I feel a bit crushed by the need of thinking about my future and learning how to use programming to earn a living; this, mixed with the fact that qt is, at times, very annoying, is making me feel very tired/burnt out these days... I can't wait to be done with this project to decide what to specialize in, maybe even by changing programming language..?
---------------
### Day 45: March 30, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: I've broken my github streak again by logging at 1am :( Today I have been feeling much better and have made a lot of progress! Tomorrow I will make the collections' menus and, hopefully, connect backend to frontend :)
---------------
### Day 46: March 31, 2022 - Thursday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Got the menu for adding collections down :) I still have work to do; I will start working on the todo-menu (even if it is a bit scary). I hope I will be able to finish the main project before Monday.
---------------
### Day 47: April 1, 2022 - Friday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Even if I'm coding everyday for more than 6 hours (and basically all of them are spend on actually typing, it feels wild), I still remember to update github at 0:08 am. Breaking the streak for 8 minutes. Its so annoying... I'm getting closer to a big update on the pomodoro app tho!
---------------
### Day 48-50: April 4, 2022 - Monday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: These days impostor syndrom and a bit of fear of the future made me struggle to work on the project... I've still managed to work on it for at least three hours a day and I'm getting closer to its end. I truly can't wait to move on.
---------------
### Day 51-52: April 6, 2022 - Wednesday
#####
**Today's Topics:** Python
**Today's Progress**: Today I've focused on cleaning up the code to move to be able to fix some of the app's bugs more efficiently. I've also understood what to study once I will be done with this :)
