Closing the Chapter - Recap

It's finally the end of semester. This also marks the end of the second open source course for me. Looking back, there are a lot to reflect on. Looking at my entire program thus far. I can comfortably say I've learned much more in these two courses than everything else combined. As I mentioned in last semester's recap, learning to code from school feels very "fragmented". It's like you collected all these puzzle pieces but don't have a reference picture to follow. Open source was just the epiphany I needed to make sense of these concepts as a whole. I've learned so much from these two courses. And it goes way beyond just coding skills too. I can't possibly cover everything here, but I'll go through some of them.
