Launching TrackMyCourse 🚀
Ever started a YouTube playlist... and never finished it?
I did too.
So I built TrackMyCourse – a free Chrome extension to track playlist progress with checkmarks & percentage.

Networking is a rabbit hole.
I started to learn about localhost and after 2 hours I found myself reading about the 4 way handshake happens when my laptop connects to my mobile's hotspot.
It's crazy that we know almost nothing about things we use daily.

pushed a new update on TrackMyCourse.
- now each video of tracked playlists have a "Watched" button, next to Like/Dislike button.
- everything is updated live. no stale ui, even on multiple tabs/windows.

today's class was the most overwhelming till now.
@piyushgarg_dev sir explains:
- monorepo
- REST architecture being loosely coupled
- gRPC and tRPC
got to learn how monorepo is scalable and tRPC actually makes it hard to make obvious mistakes.

Today, @Hiteshdotcom sir covered AbortController in class.
I had actually come across it earlier while trying to stop my own function execution midway (not just fetch)
If you want to see a practical usecase, check out my repo: inapp.app/alokcodes/4wrfyi

in my project, a single click trigger function that takes a few seconds to complete, like starting a course, waiting for a dom element, etc.
so, if the user navigates to another page, i don't want to still process it and save unintended data to storage.

that's why, almost every function in my project takes that "signal" to check if it is aborted before doing any heavy task.
If you have any questions, feel free to discuss.

one of the coolest things I have used in javascript is the AbortController.

i built my own OAuth/OpenID Connect server from scratch.
try it: alok-auth.vercel.app
it handles the full Authorization Code flow with PKCE, consent, ID tokens, access tokens, refresh tokens.
see all features 🧵
thanks to @piyushgarg_dev for sparking the curiosity. ♥️

Special thanks to @piyushgarg_dev and @Hiteshdotcom sir.
Earlier i was struggling to use these OAuth providers and now building my own, understanding the whole flow.
Grateful for the guidance and @ChaiCodeHQ community.
