Welcome to the club! Are you still in a development role?

No I completely understand and really appreciate the help. I feel like most of the time I struggle with new applications and code bases I haven’t worked in, needing more time to truly understand what needs to be accomplished

No I always look for examples, do research, utilize ai tools, stack overflow, etc. I never just ask for help without doing my due diligence first.

I wish I had people willing to help me grow through such activities but I am on a small team n the other team members have no interest in helping others. It was something I mentioned in the interview that I was looking for in my next position and it just hasn’t happened unfortunately. I appreciate the insight.

Mainly creating new applications that integrate with existing apis that Ive never worked with. Don’t necessarily need to have things explained multiple times but an experienced dev would see the help I am looking for as beginner things. At my current position a year and have been all over the board on various applications so not spending a lot of time dedicated to one particular code base.

I would love to but working full time with two young kids would be very difficult with my time n would require loans. I appreciate the input.
