/now

This is my /now page, where I share what I’m currently focused on, both professionally and personally. It’s a simplified public journal, structured into different areas.

This "now" has been in effect since Mar 4, 2025.

💻 Professional

Working at Blue Room Innovation
I’ve only been at the company for two months, so I’m still in the adaptation phase. I’m exploring Moleculer for microservices development and Casbin for user authorization. I’m also noticing a significant difference in teamwork compared to my previous experiences. I’m still learning and expanding my horizons in this new field, which is broader than I had imagined. It’s motivating to know that I’m contributing to sustainability, even though I don’t fully feel it yet.

Side project on hold
I’m waiting for confirmation on creating a website for another company. It’s a project for an illustrator, but it’s not yet clear if it will be a product catalog or an online store. I’m really looking forward to working on it.

🎨 Personal Projects

Blog & Lab
The refactoring of my blog is complete: in just two weeks, it has transitioned from Laravel + Angular to Next.js + Strapi. It now includes a home, blog, lab, and "About Me" page, all available in three languages.

I also changed my hosting, migrating from Clouding to Hetzner, and the experience has been excellent.

My next priority is expanding the About Me section, adding subpages with more content. I also want to recover posts from my old blog and organize various projects and experiments scattered across my computer, centralizing everything in one place.

Experiment
I’m exploring tools for graphical representation and data analysis (like D3.js). I’ll upload it to the lab soon, but first, I want to refine some sections of the blog.

🏃‍♂️ Sports

Independent training
I left my triathlon coach and now follow my own plan. I train every day but with more flexibility.

Next challenge: Half Marathon
It’s in a few days. I haven’t trained specifically for it, but my triathlon training should help. Soon, I’ll need to incorporate more specific workouts.

📖 Learning & Growth

Podcasts

  • I finished the PEUM podcast. After years of listening, they’ve ended the podcast… again. Those who know them will understand.
  • I’m still a loyal listener of Gabi Moreno’s Web Reactiva, which keeps improving with each episode.

Books

  • I finished El món blau, estima el teu caos by Albert Espinosa. I loved it. It’s an intense book if you’re an emotional person (like me), but it’s worth reading.
  • I’m reading Hábitos que abrazar by Miguel Camarena. I tried reading it before but stopped at chapter two. Now I’ve picked it up again, but honestly… I don’t think I’ll finish it. His writing style doesn’t convince me.
  • I’m also reading Mastering React Test-Driven Development by Daniel Irvine. So far, it’s a solid ten.

Focused Habits

  • Gym 🏋️, office work 👨‍💻, library 📚… and repeat.
