Let’s end 2020 with a BANG! with these Free Tutorials to take for your Web Development Journey

“Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.” — Brian Littrell

Never be afraid to suck at something new, everyone needs to start somewhere.

Becoming a Frontend Developer in my personal opinion is the best path to start your developer journey.

It is easier, it is a good introductory topic before you decide to fully define what kind of developer you really want to become.

When I started I honestly thought of working as a Web Developer and nothing else, I don’t have any knowledge about Software Development, DevOps, Fullstack, Mobile Development, etc.

All I know is that I need to learn HTML, CSS, Javascript, MySQL, and PHP that’s all — and that was what I have been working on before I got my first developer job.

It was very fulfilling being able to build your own website from scratch, and seeing your friends using it, it was just so cool.

Almost 5 years fast forward — well, the journey was as hard as fvck but it was definitely worth it.

My plan to become a Web Developer has been one hell of a ride, a few months of working my first developer job I was re-assigned to the Mobile Developer Team, and now in my current job, I am working as a Software Developer.

One thing I’ve learned though is that learning these fundamentals had really helped me a lot, HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Database is still part of the stack that I am currently working on, and the crazy part is this project is so huge that it took more or less 100 developers.

So, don’t underestimate these fundamental technologies, they will serve you a lifetime.

Whatever Javascript framework/library you choose, it is best to focus on one of them at a time, don’t just jump from one to another, knowing the basics isn’t enough, you really need to understand their structure, their architecture, and how they work along with other technologies and packages.

Focus on one technology at a time, it is more effective, remember you don’t want to end up becoming Jack of all trades master of none.
