If you're like me, I have an imaginary backlog full of ideas I want to test out, tech I want to learn next, articles and tutorials I want to explore, and projects I want to work on.

But between 40 hours a week at work, going to gym and trying to have enough time to rest, I'm finding it a challenge to hit the right amount of hours in a day / week that's a good amount.

I want to get an idea on how many hours devs spent on average, and no better place to ask than Dev.to 👨‍💻👩‍💻

I'll start:

Me: 16 hours a week on average, with varying focus and regularity

weeknights: 3 hrs per day, except Friday (rest day)

• less focus: most of energy consumed during the day
• regular: it's easier to get it going 4 straight days in a row

weekends: 2 hours per day

• better focus: full brain power, since no work
• irregular: because of errands, cooking, going out, friends, family. It's the weekend after all 😄 🛍️ 🏞️ 🚴‍♂️ 🏀

What about you?

(Details optional, main thing is the hrs per day/week)
