Comming back after a break

Comming back after a break

I had an 8 month break due to the start of the first semester of college. I finished Foundations, Intermediate HTML and CSS and stopped right before Async JavaScript in the JavaScript course. 

I’d like to mention that I didn’t abandon programming. During the first semester to prepare for Introduction to programming classes(C, C++) college classes I programmed two projects: 

  • terminal snake game in C with ncurses 
  • spaceshooter in CPP with raylib.

For the past few months I have been working on a hobby project in Kotlin Dwarves vs Zombies minecraft minigame plugin with paper api(second semester in my freetime). There were some college assignments lately in the second semester in python and c# but they were rather insignificant compared to the projects I mentioned.

I was thinking about coming back since my summer break just started. I specifically thought about taking a detour and starting the rails path as I am not that deep in the js path. For some reason I find it more fascinating. I also doubt that learning ruby would take a lot of time considering my exposure to various programming languages.

I think that starting it all over again would kill my motivation. Do you have any recommendations when it comes to coming back after a while ?

Projects I mentioned:
