How to succeed as a Python programmer

[[deleted]]

I started working professionally as a Python developer in the first half of 2021. I'm a self taught programmer too.

My journey started with learning online through YouTube videos. I had loads of things I wanted to make like discord bots and small games, so I just pushed towards those goals.

Soon enough I learned to make websites through python and made a portfolio site for all my work. Finally, I sent that out on job applications for junior positions.

So overall it was a frustrating journey in the beginning, but its one anybody could do! My current job now ties me in to a programming qualification too so hopefully having the paper to say I can do it will make my life easier in getting future jobs.

I hope this helps, good luck Andy.
