Description

The holidays are coming up, and for many developers that brings up a familiar dilemma - should you keep coding, learning, and building… or should you unplug and take a real break? With fast-moving frameworks, constant updates, and pressure to stay relevant, stepping away can feel risky. But burnout is real, and the holidays are often one of the few chances we get to properly recharge. In this Web News, we talk about whether developers should code over the holidays, when it makes sense to keep tinkering, and when it’s healthier to step back and reset.
