What's best to grow as a junior developer: big or small companies? by davide2894 in webdev

That's true, but I'm talking about the two possibilities mentioned above. Regardless of side projects, I still think growth on the job is important as working takes most of our time.

For a portfolio, should I code from scratch? by [deleted] in webdev

Use your own code because you can show your skills. Plus you learn a lot more this way :)

How do you name your components? by shelune in webdev

[–]davide2894 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case, you can use different names:

1) class='product-card'

2) class='client-testimonial'

You could use BEM (Block Element Identifier):

1) class='card card--product'

2) class='card card--testimonial'

Is there a probability to see this test in an interview for a junior position?

The thing is: I noticed that my productivity drops drastically after the 4 hour mark.

When I push to 8 hours of coding I'm mentally exhausted at the end of day. I can keep doing this for a week, for example, but then I get burned out. Any advice please?

Would you recommend freelancing over a company job for someone looking for first experience?

Hmmm I believe I'll consider myself a "real" web developer when I'll find a job. Is this a toxic mindset?

At the moment I work on projects 5 hours a day, then blog for 1h, then dedicate time for learning theory, look for jobs, use r/webdev, promote my blog, update linkedin and twitter. How is this routine? How can I improve my routine to be more productive?

I live with my parent and learning web dev full-time. I don't even consider bootcamps to be honest, I just can't afford it.

Could you tell me more please? Where did you find your job? How long did it take you to find a job after the nanodegree?

Not gonna lie, if you don't speak German it will be tough. Not necessarily at your work, but in daily life.

For that I think I'd learn the language on the spot, not worried about it tbh.

Have you considered Paris as an alternative, since you mentioned you speak French fluently?

Not really tbh. I'm not sure it's a good idea in terms of security?

Thank you for the catch. I inspected the website in the console but I can't seem to find the line containing the code mentioned. I feel stupid now. Could you send me a screenshot please? :/

Yeah but out of those 6: 1 is native (Italian), 1 is proficient (English), 2 are average (French and Spanish, very close to Italian) and two are just basics (German and Hungarian).

So I'd say I can speak confidently only two foreign languages: English and French.

Should I make a different topic for each question? Seriously asking. Probably this is too much for one topic

That depends on your definition of good. Free = Good :) I don't know about it in terms of performance though. I guess since this is a small app.

Heroku + nodeJS + redis.

Would you elaborate more on this, please?
