Project In 3 Days (PI3D) is a project I started in July of 2018 (1 year ago). The goal was simple: - Start a project - Finish it within the next three days - Take a two or three day break - Repeat ## Why? I started PI3D because I had a large number of small ideas that I wanted to try out, but did not want feel the need to continue supporting said projects in the long term. PI3D quickly became a great learning tool for me, and I rapidly improved my prototyping, research, efficiency, and programming skills. I get many comments from other people I work with about how quickly I take an idea and turn it into a program, a skill which I can confidently attribute to the time spent working on my PI3D projects. At this point, I would not be surprised if I am more fluent in Python than English. ## My favorite projects Here are the projects I enjoyed working on and using the most: - [ThriftyField](https://github.com/frc5024/ThriftyField) - [Dirobium](https://github.com/Ewpratten/Dirobium) - [DevDNS](https://github.com/Ewpratten/devDNS) - [PWNLink](https://github.com/Ewpratten/PWNlink) - [BashSmash](https://github.com/Ewpratten/BashSmash) - [FlippyCat](https://github.com/Ewpratten/FlippyCat) - [Give Me A Distro](https://retrylife.ca/gmad/) ## Things I have learned ## The downside ## What's next? - Counter - project badge - other people? ## Will I keep doing PI3D?
