One hundred days ago, I had no idea this challenge would become one of the most rewarding technical journeys I've taken. There were days when everything clicked, and there were days when nothing compiled.
I celebrated successful deployments, stared at cryptic errors for

Looking back now, I realize I didn't just complete 100 challenges; I built a completely different mental model of software.
