The Blueprint For Becoming A Web Developer in 2022

[@El.Desarrollador]

I’m 32 and I got 4 kids and this literally impact me a lot. I started learning since 13 but not from a-z I have been jumping and jumping from courses to tutorials and is frustrating because I got a lot of miss concepts. I was thinking I’m too old to learn again from scratch but this really inspire me

[@emanuelarriaza3710]

Man I started 4 months ago and got 3 certs now don't stop

[@aloky247]

I'm 38,Single with negligible responsibilities and yet I struggle to keep up with my promise of becoming a web developer. On the other hand Travis with a family of four children and with other responsibilities pulled this off. Hats off to Travis.

[@RushinTruckin]

Sounds like you don’t have a strong enough WHY

[@zakeenaqvi2440]

I think having a family that is dependent on you can actually become a huge source of motivation. You end up wanting a better life not just for yourself anymore, but mainly so that your family is happy. That's what keeps me going at least.

[@justsid]

What separates you from other content creators is a great ability to mentor. Thank you for your honesty and thoroughness. I've decided to pursue learning web development on my own after realizing that most of the information and educational resources are available for a fraction of the price that many of these sketchily run companies are charging. Fortunately, I bailed out of a startup that charged 27k for getting users on board with a career in web development. It just made me raise an eyebrow at the whole thing.

[@persistentabel3663]

Hello Travis! I just wanted to thank you for this detailed roadmap. I had already started the Angela web development course around a week ago (October 26th ish 2022) so I was just so happy that this is the course you mentioned. I'm giving myself a bit more than 6 months (8 months) to learn these skills and make unique solid projects. After I'm done doing this I will enroll back to school for my computer science degree and apply right away for software engineer internships. Not only will I have learned modern technologies but also have a good resume which will give me an advantage (I hope) in applying for these positions. I'll come back around June/July of 2023 to update to see where I'm at in terms of internships or if I got a web development job. Writing this on November 5th 3:30am.

Man!! You are soo real am glad I find you, thanks for making your videos

[@Unknownbrowndude]

In relation to the recommended course, I took it and thoroughly enjoyed my time learning Dr. Yu's teaching style & course content. However, it is severely outdated. The content on HTML, CSS and JavaScript is good enough. She even touches on the basics of React. But the backend content (Node.JS, Express, MongdoDB) is not even worth going through. My suggestion is do the course for the frontend technologies, but look elsewhere for backend. Nonetheless, great video Travis.

[@TravisMedia]

That’s a great path too if you don’t specifically want to get into web dev. In fact I did a video a little while back on the benefits of a cloud cert/Python path which I think is a good one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/noDUgJ1uas-ppJI

[@JDMorris81]

Her Web Dev course was actually the first I bought then ended up walking away from it. Only got as far as CSS. I know you did another video on an alternative path in Software Development. Would you recommend me to go back to her course and continue or should I go for AWS/Python instead if I want to break into tech quickly?

[@breakmon218]

why did you walk away from her course?

[@MrStrongBro]

Hey Travis! I understand that front end development is one of the most entry level positions in the field. With that said, that’s what I want to do first just to finally make the big career change and get real world experience to eventually become a full stack developer. My first coding language was Python, and I’ve recently just bought Angela Yu’s 100 days of code Python course, and I’m two weeks in. I hope I didn’t make a big hiccup by not picking her full stack development course and learning JavaScript first. Did I make a mistake? I kinda feel like I’m in the early stages of just learning coding logic, and considering Python is such an easy language to understand, regardless this will help me use this coding logic toward other languages in the long run. What do you think?

[@9mrdjan1]

Thanks for all the videos, manm you are so helpful! I just have one question, anyone could answer me. I am thinking of starting to learn frontend skills with zero experience and my biggest fear is that maybe I dont have mindset and logic for solving problems that are essential for working in this job. I am former student of Arabic language, and not really math and variables guy...

[@amariona6351]

Hi Travis, Great vid! Should i start off with AWS and learn Python alongside that as you said in your last vid on how to become a developer, or follow this blueprint?

[@TravisMedia]

Hi Amarion! It depends really on your current skillset and your interest in this pursuit. Have you done any web development. If so, do you enjoy it? Then go that route. Do you think you would like cloud computing, virtual servers, automation, etc alongside of a programming language like Python? Then you could go that route. I would suggest going the path that you think (or know) would be more exiciting for you. Either way you get to do programming and write code. But would you prefer web apps/websites or cloud development? Does that help? And thanks for the comment!

[@esculap12]

@@TravisMedia great advice, thank you! Now that you have tried both, webdev and cloud computing, which one do you prefer/enjoy more? If you were to start all over again, would you choose Python + AWS Cert over the webdev path?

[@deap792]

I am halfway through Angela's Python course and am noticing that I may be more interested in web development. Is it worth just trying to get really adept with Django or is the time better spent learning JavaScript and it's frameworks once I finish the python course?

[@laffta6727]

curious as to what path you took in the end-did you switch to the js path--thx

[@alanhf]

Hi Travis, how are u?! First of all, thanks for your content. So... when it comes to react what should I do about state management?! I'm kind confuse about context / redux / redux tool kit. Thanks again and wish you the best.

[@TravisMedia]

Thanks Alan! I would start off passing props and not using state management. Do that for a while until you clearly see the annoyance of having to pass props all over the place to children and grandchildren etc components. Then learn Context first to ease the above problem and as a state management solution. Finally, last of all, learn Redux. It's a whole separate beast and oftentimes in projects isn't even needed though people insist on having it. But it is used a lot so will have to learn it but do it last. Hope that helps!

Have to remember it’s just a season, a 6 month hard sacrifice. Keep the end in sight and stay heads down when you can. Schedule time in the evenings or early mornings whichever works best. Make sure your family is on board and knows the intended outcome. I spent like 3-4 hours a day during that time.

[@realistvision2547]

Great video, very informative you really know your stuff! I agree Angela's Yu's course is really good. However what we need to take into consideration is this is a full stack developer course with a massive amount of content. I feel that there are some topics which she should explore deeper. For example there is only a couple of hours of JavaScript. So she provides a good template but I do feel other courses and materials will be needed to supplement her course. In order to become a full stack developer. I have learnt HTML and CSS do you think I should go straight to JavaScript or learn bootstrap and SAAS first?

[@TravisMedia]

Thanks for the input. I personally would go straight to JS in your situation and learn Bootstrap and/or Sass along the way

[@rursus8354]

I'm a teacher in programming. I don't really like web because of Javascript: an unsecure LISP with an ugly syntax. Worse, node.js is another a-principle-driven-into-the-absurd language, like f.ex. Java: in node.js's case it is parallelism even when it is not needed. I'm sitting listening to this praise-of-the-stupid in order to understand what tools people work with. I recommend React *and* Angular. They're trying to correct the wrongs-and-stupids of the web. First learn HTML, CSS and effing JavaScript though, but don't follow Udemy! Instead follow free and gratis w3schools and then start to experiment. w3schools supports experimentation.

[@tomk3682]

[@VALLANCEGAMING]

How did you get on?

[@tomk3682]

@@VALLANCEGAMING Got through most of the front end sections aside from the react section.. To be honest you really need a separate course for react because unfortunately its a little out of date as most people don't use class base anymore for react.. The 'big' project is incredibly lacking/ boring but the course is definitely worth it on a good sale just for learning frontend vanilla javascript. To be honest it doesn't matter which course you get because most likely both course will cover vanilla javascript css and html relatively well.. I would probably lean towards Angela course as there are many more fun 'mini' projects but if you are thinking of becoming a full stack developer, I'll probably get two additional courses, one focus on react and the other on backend.
