I completed 100 Days of Java over 5 years and mapped the journey as a graph

Takes me back to simpler days when Java was THE language to learn and book like this was interesting. It seems the author took each day in the book as an inspiration for a blog post, which gives it value beyond the book itself.

What exactly is the intuition behind taking something inherently linear like a sequence of 100 days and presenting it as a graph with no information given about the rationale or reasoning behind the edges.

I completed 100 Days of Java and ended up and it took me roughly 5 years.

Made an interactive map/index of the posts, linked by related topics. I made it to make the series easier to browse by concept instead of only by day number.

I looked around, but can't find the source information this was created off of -- where are the questions/topics for the 100 days listed?

Your category names aren't rendering the "&" correctly as "&", might want to look into that (Chrome 147.0.7727.138, Windows)

This website is very confusing.

You should try rendering the graph in 3js. It’s pretty easy and so so beautiful.

Toto.tech has a decent example. You have flight controls with wasd + mouse

I personally am not sure what's the point of this, when the graph seems like doesn't give any real information + doesn't even work on mobile (no hover), but congrats on finishing up the series!

Wait, foreach is slower then for loop? I did not know this.

This looks interesting, I worked with Java some time ago, but haven't touched it for some time. I guess since the graph is really not that intuitive this really describes how complicated can be learning Java!

Just use Apache Commons Lang Strings.CS.equalsAny . If not, List.of or Set.of (if N could be big) should be the best options. Streams are better when you chain many operations.
