By Andy Leverenz • Issue #182 • View online

Greetings! Welcome to another week of the Web-Crunch digest. This week is sponsored by lancer.to, a freelance-only job board with new jobs posted daily. Subscribe to get new freelance jobs delivered to your inbox each week.

Some bullet points about what’s going on with me:

I’m excited for the road ahead. To finalize this year I’m at work on some new projects that are more course driven. More details about soon!
I plan to start getting a little more diverse on my blog and YouTube channel. Rails and Ruby will forever be a focus but I’d like to open the door to more beginners as well. If you see more beginner content coming out in the next few months I hope it won’t be by surprise!
