Welcome to Daily Proficiency! This blog was started by me, Vihan, a passionate 28-year-old designer, software engineer, and web enthusiast who has been doing this as a freelancer for about eight years.
Here you will find helpful guides, news, lists, and more about topics ranging from design to WordPress to front-end development. Eventually, I intend to share just about every piece of valuable knowledge that I have acquired.
Why Did I Start Daily Proficiency?
Once upon a time, I wrote some blog posts over at my personal website. It was a large endeavor that I casually took on, and together with my other work, I was unable to put in the time required to deliver good content regularly.
Daily Proficiency is a standalone project, separate from my site. This is a project where I intend to create a schedule of regularly published content, initially written only by me, but hopefully growing into something bigger.
This site is meant to be a resource for those who want to improve their skills. From beginners to pros, I think there will be something here for everyone.
