#1. Please share with us 5 things you did that helped you grow & become the professional you are today<\/b><\/h3>\n
<\/div>\n
\u221a Invest in personal projects<\/strong>. Think of a project that you think is fun to make and just start hacking at it. Developing something for yourself, where you make all the decisions rather than for a company you work for, is an amazing tool for learning and growing.<\/div>\n
\u221a Join in the conversation<\/strong>. Is there an online group or a meetup for your area of development? That’s a great way to make new personal connections and learn along the way<\/div>\n
\u221a Find an open source project that you like and start contributing<\/strong>. A good place to start would be a tool or library that you already know and use. Your contribution doesn’t have to be code – you can open an issue, improve the documentation or write a tutorial.<\/div>\n
\u221a Take initiative<\/strong>. Is there something in your workplace that can be done better and sounds interesting to play with? Step up and do it. Suggest researching a new topic, or introducing a new tool the workflow. It’ll provide an interesting new challenge and a break from the daily routine. Plus it’ll make you look cool.<\/div>\n
\u221a Stay optimistic<\/strong>. Sometimes these challenges are frustrating, and there are days you won’t make any progress, but the moment you have that “a-ha” moment is worth it all.<\/div>\n

#2. What challenges will the participants find solutions to during your session at I T.A.K.E Unconference 2017?<\/b><\/h3>\n
Participants will learn about why making synchronized multiplayer games in the browser is so hard and what solutions do we have at our disposal to tackle those.<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

#3.\u00a0<\/b>Recommend for the participants 3 sources you find inspiration from and would help them better understand you<\/b><\/h3>\n
\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n
\u221a\u00a0Codepen.io<\/a>\u00a0is a wonderful tool for inspiration on the web<\/div>\n
\u221a Games in general. Just get\u00a0Steam<\/a>\u00a0and play something!<\/div>\n
\u221a \u00a0Multiplayer Game Programming: Architecting Networked Game<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0by Josh Glazer & Sanjay Madhav – A very comprehensive book on all things multiplayer<\/div>\n
