Developer Overload is a hub for learning  web development with a mission to offer free training materials, resources, projects and more to the Gulf Coast community while also taking a look in to non-tech hobbies and life. I started it to fill a gap in my free time, share my notes and show my work while giving back to my community.

The site itself is built on Docusaurus, hosted through Netlify and easily optimized with React based components.
