Deepening a thing at a time

Deepening a thing at a time
Nowadays, we are bombarded with new frameworks, new libraries, new patterns. How could you manage this swollen river of knowledge? Should you know a bit of everything or should you concentrate on just one thing? There is no right answer but I would like to tell you my journey with Cypress: the whys, the hows, the results, and the by-products. I dedicated one month only to Cypress, I experimented with new learning paths, I returned to public speaking... And I knew tons of people. I received a lot of feedback, I wrote a GitHub book and I taught some courses. It worked pretty well for me and it shaped a new way of learning from now on.
