Last week Heroku announced that they’re discontinuing their free tier and add one. This lead many developers to find alternatives, as heroku’s free plan allowed developers to host a variety of small and demo projects.

The 4 hosting providers listed here are some of the alternatives available for Heroku. The free plans can generally allow developers to host demos and small projects.

Do you use Heroku? And have you migrated to another hosting after this announcement?

May was exhausting tbh. The constant change of temperature and a lot of travelling/ commuting did get to me and unfortunately this probably won't change in June. But I got a new plant friend for my desk! 🌿 And I also read the best book I've read this year, so far! 📖

Set Up a Study Space Your bed should not be your study space! Find a place with:

Little distractions ie no tv, no loud noises, etc.

Everything you need: all your supplies and stationery

The right temperature, too cold & you’ll lose focus, too hot & you’ll feel sleepy

Snacks, so you won’t have to keep going away from your desk

Water: stay hydrated !!

Exercise Before studying. It will boost your energy levels and help keep you focused.  You don’t have to do a full workout or anything, try going for a quick walk!!

Know your Goal And how you’re going to achieve it! If you know your goal it will be so much easier to stay on task. Perhaps have a reminder of what you aspire to do or the grades you want on the wall in front of you so it’s what you see when you look up!

Try Some Background Noise It will help block out other noises and help you stay focused!

Time Your Tasks Timing what you have to do is really good to manage time and remind yourself on what you have to do.
