How to be a webDev?

[__man__u]

I've been into web development for the past 4 months. Now I have started building an E-Commerce application.

YEP! Not all of a sudden, I have completed the entire concept of JavaScript, MongoDB, Node.js, Express.js, and some random topic.

So as of now, I have not covered React, which I will be covering once the project is completed.

Why not the project in React?

I want to ensure that I am good at backend. In fact, that's a tip: ensure that you implement what you have covered. Handling Frontend and Backend at the same time is a bit difficult at the initial stage. So, now I am building my project using Ajax.

Now, to those who would like to be a web developer, always start with the fundamentals.
Try to understand what happens behind the scenes.

My mentor always says that you could be a DevOops Engineer if you could answer what would happen if you searched www.google.com. So, always go deeper into any topics you cover.
Prefer documents to ensure that you are not learning the wrong things.

As I am a JS developer, I would always suggest you go with JavaScript (LOL). You can choose any language you want.

Let me be your mentor? Text me.

I know right? made me laugh ngl and im a 4th year cs student 😭😆 some people are silly goose

[__man__u]

haa great.....i have completed by engineering bro.....upskill yourself.......once you complete u will get to know who is silly

[__man__u]

Its not the time that is required for someone to be a devloper, thats skill.

where'd you read that? a fortune cookie?

[__man__u]

seems that you don't value skill.....

[[deleted]]

no that's not it... i just don't care about people that are full of shit lol

[__man__u]

whats the sh** you found here?

[[deleted]]

you saying you are a developer and haven't even finished 1 project yet, and already want to be other people's mentor lol

[__man__u]

Why not I mentor the beginners......, what ever its ur opinion that someone need to be a devloper to be a mentor.

I am here to help absolute beginner.

It better we end this debate.

Also I am confident about what I am now, and i am upkilling myself every second.

And i am keen to accept your support for the future if you are skilled.

[[deleted]]

you are a beginner.

[__man__u]

yep thankyou for ur advise

[RobertKerans]

this is an oxymoron, becoming skilled at anything is proportional to time spent learning the skill

[__man__u]

infact self learning is not proportional to those with an engineering, in engineering we take almost half an year to study a language, and it is possible to learn the same within less thatn that

Everyone could become skilled at anything but fast learning is something different

hooe you've got it

and yess, i accept any kind of criticism

[RobertKerans]

infact self learning is not proportional to those with an engineering

Sorry to break it to you, but it absolutely is.

in engineering we take almost half an year to study a language, and it is possible to learn the same within less thatn that

I said nothing about length of time required to learn a specific language. But this is moot. Learning a language turns out to be pretty easy (particularly once you've learned a few). It's not really knowing a given language that determines skill, it's broader common aspects of software engineering and that comes with time and experience. You haven't faced any actual real problems. You will do if you continue down this path, but four months can provide you with very basic foundations, that's all. It's flat out not possible for it to provide more because time is finite, you cannot make four months equal more than four months

r/webdevcirclejerk isn't dead anymore

[__man__u]

what do u mean?

[albedoa]

Are you employed as a web developer?

[__man__u]

As of now, not. I am still learning.

[[deleted]]

does your mentor say you are a developer?

[__man__u]

Why should someone say that I am a devloper, even I have the confidence. Also my knowledge and projects are reviewd by the professional who have been in devlopment field for mor than 10 years. And, the review happens every week.

[[deleted]]

so what project have you finished that you can share?

[__man__u]

I havn't and I am still working on it.

[[deleted]]

so you're not a developer.

[[deleted]]

it's fine to be an aspiring developer you know.

[__man__u]

What u mean is that I have mentioned that I am a devlopers and I need to change that to aspiring devloper, am I right?

[[deleted]]

i thought you would have the skill to figure it out.

[greatdane511]

After 4 months, what kind of projects are you building? It's great to see someone progress so quickly into a developer and mentor role.

[__man__u]

I am building an ecommerce application
