Long Running Projects
What if you want to work on a single project for a few days, or throughout the challenge? You don't have to start over every day... there are (at least) two ways to manage a long-running project.
You don't have to keep your challenge work inside the challenge repository - only the daily README needs to go in the challenge repo.
You can always create a separate GitHub project for your long-running project, and make a note in your daily README, perhaps linking to the project.
With this approach, you treat the challenge repository as a journal, and do your work externally.
This is similar to the first approach, only this time you create a project-specific directory in your personal directory. For example, to work on a game of hangman, I could create 2_adventures/001/patmaddox/hangman
, and then each day I would create my daily folder and README.
Once again, this approach treats the daily challenge folders as a journal. The difference is my project code lives inside the challenge repository, as opposed to its own repository.
