Hey Friends!

+ +

+ Time for some hobbies! Last month, we went all in on writing articles + and sharing our word with a wider audience. But now, at the end of the + year, we want to take some time for our passions, hobbies, games, and + the little things that provide us joy. +

+ + +
+ +

πŸ’ž Kindness and Gratitude

πŸ’‘ What's happening at Virtual Coffee

+

November Recap: Writing!

+

+ Based on the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) Challenge, this + challenge was the tech and non-tech take on writing and working together + towards the goal while posting on our own blogs. Thank you to all the + community members who participated! +

+

+ To view all of the details of how this year's challenge went,{' '} + + check out the November 2024 challenge page + + . +

+ +

December is the time for fun!

+

+ Let's make some space for the other parts of ourselves. +

+

+ Devs are more than just the code we write. This challenge is all about + embracing self-expression. Give back to yourself by indulging in + something just for fun. Share the art, music, poetry, sports, games, or + other hobbies that spark your joy. We spend so much time grinding away + on understanding things in the tech space. Let's make some space for the + other parts of ourselves. In this challenge, we encourage you to spend + time working on things that aren't necessarily code-specific or using + code to improve your other hobbies and outlets. +

+

+ Learn more about this challenge in{' '} + + this blog post. + +
