Welcome to Collective #802
This week served as a gentle nudge to embrace a slower pace. The holiday vibes are floating around, and many hardworking devs and designers are rightly taking some well-deserved time off. It does mean, though, that the usual whirlwind of writing, coding, and publishing has taken a bit of a snooze 😉
Hence, there was no Collective this Monday, and there will be only one more to wrap up the year next Thursday.
Wishing you the coziest of holidays! Remember to take it slow—sometimes, just kick back, hit play, and enjoy the show!
Happy reading!
