Sounds brutal but I need the pressure

Hi this is all helpful, I wanted to get a ipad for this frontend , but I wanted to know if the verison of ipad does matter ?

Please what website did she say a web developer can get inspiration from?

That was super useful, tysm!

I quit my $210K work from home tech job in March after 2yrs. The work culture wasnt even toxic and the people were great. Still the best decision I ever made.

Can i ask what kind of company you work at? Would love to try and find such a creative environment 💞

Extra hot tea or coffee 😊

I'm learning a lot from the Mimo app combined with Free Code Camp.

Definitely a developer.

You're so wise ❤

Thank you for sharing this. There’s a lot of super important takeaways from this video. And not just for people who wanna work in tech, but any job. Seriously, thanks for being open and honest about your experience at this job. I’ve dealt with anxiety and panic attacks before too, it sucks and it can really make things harder. I’m glad you’re working through it and I know you’re gonna be alright. Appreciate the video. 🙏🏼

Absolutely amazing video! Thank you

Sorry, I always thought flexbox was a CSS attribute. Is it more like a Figma plug-in or chrome extension?

This was confirmation ❤Ty

I literally reference that damn css-tricks Flex breakdown page every time. Even after doing this for 10 years lmao

I am both

Can you choose both of them

where can i find the homepage wallpapers?

Relatable. Thank you for sharing. Life is a gift and I believe we deserve to have a career where our mental health thrives. Go you for prioritizing you. I quit too

awesome video

Super clear to understand and informative, thank you so much for this Jess !

Good video, very helpful.

All high paying work has high expectations of you. That just goes with the territory.

Thank you for making this video. I know that the motivation and drive comes from within, but sometimes I do get discouraged learning to code. Especially with the AI chatter that comes with it sometimes. I do a project at least once a week but I'll get into my groove soon. ❤

Hi Jess, when you say you have some emails to check, are they emails about coding errors to fix? Just wanted to know what do the emails entail, as far as Web development working for a company

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Definitely like more beverages warm 😂

I've been through the same situation with mice in my previous house, pregnant and with a young child... Since then I unlocked a new trauma every time I hear some scratching noises lol. Rough times are such a motivation moving backward!

Great insights, and glad I landed on your channel. I actually do both design and dev but with ZERO code, and I’m currently creating a curriculum for a web design course. My focus is on 3 areas: Strategy 50%, Design 30% and No-code development 20%. This ratio is also how the income from web design projects is shared. So, while it’s good for designers/creatives to learn code, my 2 decades experience in design has taught me that Strategy is the one thing that designers and developers should really strive to understand. It is the bridge between the business world and the creator world, and your ultimate path to much higher income - be it as an employee or freelancer. To kick off, start reading and consuming content on Creative Strategy. There’s a lot of great content by Chris Do on his channel “The Futur”.

Glory hallelujah... amen! Turn on your radio with the Holy Ghost instrumental or worship music. It will bring peace and change your atmosphere in God's love. Speaking from experience. Thanks for being transparent. Blessings and joy!

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS....I try to watch them as much as a i can every morning before i start working on my projects. I am a VR/AR developer that works with unity game engine with c#. I am now naturally wanting to know more about software development the front-end and back-end (fullstack) I would like to add that skillset to virtual reality and create applications that give a holistic and humanity first approach in immersive technologies instead of it being used for games. Love What you go and your perspective. ALSO SHOUT OUT TO YOU FOR BEING A CHILD OF GOD AND DAUGHTER IN CHRIST LOVE THAT ABOUT YOU ASWELL AND THE FAMILY ASPECT YOU PUT IN YOUR TECH VIDEOS THIS IS WHAT SETS UP APART!

I am a hot tea drinker

When you guys explained your whys I felt that🙌🏾🙌🏾 Good content as always.

Your my namesake…

Thanks sis

I have been inconsistent in my journey wondering if its worth it at all, mostly me trying to stay in my comfort zone and afraid to fail. But what you said is true, sometimes the journey isn't linear, it has its twists and turns and you have to go back in order to move forward. Thank you for showing your resources with us. I am also going to start using free code camp along with my Udemy course and of course 100devs. I find that those alone weren't enough for me but maybe altogether will make a difference. :)

You are so good 🎉

Wow when you said your age and you have kids I thought you were at most 22 . Awesome video 💪🏽

Hey Jess! Ali here from the UK, your website is dope! I ran a digital solutions company for a few years, it gave me many fruits! but when I went to your website, yo I m impressed, well done girl! are you on LinkedIn?

Your journey is very similar to mine, except I let my imposter syndrome trick me out of trying a junior dev role. Learning how to code through college wasn’t the best for me, so now I’m starting over and teaching myself. I finished two classes/projects just today alone. We got this! ❤

Really enjoyed the vlog! I just had a bit of a hard time reading your caption because of the light colour. But that was such a nice and cozy vlog! I loved your little intro at the beginning, I totally get you ❤

Are you working for a start up or corporate?

3:38 me in every front end meeting ever lmao

Hi Jess, firstly thank you for sharing your journey so far and also my deepest condolences for your loss, i wish you peace and blessings 💐 im so fortunate that ive found your channel because im also working towards becoming a frontend developer after studying UX design recently and realised after adding HTML and CSS to my skillset that Ive fallen in love with coding and actually enjoy it more than designing! Thankfully, ive got my foot in the door of tech working as a tech support for a software company here in Melbourne, Australia and have worked my way up to a slightly more seniour role where im helping to custom build solutions for our clients. This is mostly built inside our internal builder that was made by our development team some time ago, although the role has meant that ive had to learn some HTML, CSS and some SQL as well. I have just LOVED learning all three so far and im hungry to learn more. I would love to have a 30 min call with you sometime, you seem so nice, very smart and someone who has a warm heart and empathy for others 😊 I also relate to your faith and how youre leaning into that, it can be a real comforter in times of need! Im Greek Orthodox and so i share your Christian faith too :) blessings to you and I hope we can speak sometime soon! Sophie from Australia 😁

What pays more web developers?or softwear engineer?which one gives you freedom to do more freelance?

your channel is fulfilled with tons of great content, I'll take sometime to study it, thanks!

I’m interested in the 100 devs, just learning how to get started with that. I think you mentioned that in this video, did you vlog it or did I miss it 😅. Enjoy your vlog by the way ❤.

OMG I felt the same on my last job, and it was on finance. The manager breathing on my neck, checking how long it will take me, wanting a heads up all the time, questioning me why I did that so and so and showing me how it was supposed to be done quicker, and than saying that my work was not efficient or good enough and returning the work back for corrections or changes. It was awful, she made me hate the company and especially her. I was a great worker until I met her. She make me feel unable, stupid, slow, resulting in a big self-doubt and impostor syndrome. Ultimately, I was "laid-off". Now I am broken, I have to start over and convince myself that I am enough, that I can do it, but can I? Also, she didn't like me to ask anybody else, I needed to figure out all by myself or ask her directly, only if I did that I knew she would use that against me, and she always did. I'm pretty sure she had a log where she entered daily all my misses and mistakes, keep a complete record of my actions to go and throw that on my face at quarter end. It was awful. I worked like that for 8 months. One of the worst experiences of my career. I hate her. It was so humiliating. I am so devastated and so burned out.

Im building a website for my brothers business. First I hate style components approach, staying with Sass might learn Tailwind. Did some web development but realize Front end is not my cup of tea lol. But its good to learn more than just the minimum as non frontend engineer. You remind me of my Frontend Mentor days lol. Learning how to implement aws s3 with react for this project. Happy coding!!!

Great content! I loved seeing your 100 dev’s layout and process!! I would love to see a video explaining what worklife is like(working with a team, tickets, work environment, deadlines, etc?) I’m also interested in how you manage a 9-5, 2 kids, husband and 100 devs workload😂😂🤯 You seem very organized and your journey is very inspirational. Thank you for sharing😊
