Codebenders, I started a new channel focused specifically on AI dev and how to build cool projects, check it out: www.youtube.com/@thecodebendermaster :)

Here, I'm literally lost I don't know what to do or where to start from, since my early years I was always messing around with phones and pc's, trying to get paid stuff for free, modding some games etc , and those Practices made my love to tech and IT in general, I'm looking to forward to study cyber security / ethical hacking or pentesting

@TheLastCodebender, good luck on your yt journey, bro! 🚀 I've got a strong feeling you'll crush it. I tackled HTML, CSS, and JS, did a bunch of projects, and then I quit for 4 months😅. Now your videos are firing me up to dive back in. Big thanks! Today, it's ReactJS time, inshallah! 🚀💻

[@farhanqamar4342]

Thank you very much for this video I want you to make a second part of this video in which the next step is mentioned, after learning all this, how should we search for jobs and where should we start searching? I am a programmer. As someone who doesn't have a degree in computer science, I don't know much about how to get a job or how to do research, so it would be great if another part was made.

[@TheLastCodebender]

For sure man, I plan to make a video about it soon. I also have a bootcamp course that I am currently preparing, the pre-order for that will be available soon. I will go in depth there on all my strategies to find high-paying jobs.

I would just add may be start your career as a FE dev, work for 1-2 years while learning BE in ur free time and than you can transfer to middle or even a seniour position as a fullstack dev (if u r smart and lucky enough) with a crazy salary boost

[@maninform3523]

slm brother i really hope you answer, so i have been doing a software engineering program for 6 months now and from month 9-12 we are to choose whether to specialize in front or back end, ive always been more interesting in backend but i keep seeing videos on how it is over saturated and there are way less entry level jobs for frontend and the job might not be future proof, please is there any advise youd have for me, is it better to do backend for more job opportunities ?

[@cedriclaps]

I should stop my trainee at the company I work for. I just should search for a full time work cause the most things I can do already. Sometimes idk I stepped to fast into the trainee work. Btw. im from Germany and I want to ask do you prefer to work for Companies at the USA or for my own country (For money).

[@TheLastCodebender]

US will pay a lot more ofc, so from a money perspective, it's usually better to either work here or work remotely for a US company. How long have you been a trainee? If you can go for a fulltime position now, that's probably better!

[@ollelarsson1]

Just like you said in the beginning of the video, my mind have been jumping around between which language to learn. And also, do I want to pursue frontend or backend? With this amazingly edited video my mind is now set on this roadmap. Thank you.

[@TheLastCodebender]

Happy to help brother! Let me know what you think of the roadmap when you start it!

[@simbah7941]

very solid video bro 🔥 btw i'm undecided weather i should pursue programming or sales do you have any advice for someone in my position?

[@itswaaadh]

Try find mentors from both fields ask them all questions from your head related to those two fields and lastly find yourself a conclusion to what you'll have to decide on and do more research on both fields .

[@TheLastCodebender]

honestly bro both options are great, you cant really go wrong. Actually if you go ahead and master both, you will be unstoppable, it's a very powerful combo. You can try both and see what you like more; e.g. you can try to build a small interesting coding project with javascript, see if you like it. Then try something related to sales, maybe some books or small course. If you end up liking both options equally and want to start with something, I think coding is easier to learn now compared to later on in life, sales is easier to pick later IMO so that might be a consideration too. What I would recommend you is to look at it in relation to your goals, what do you want to do with those skills, what are you trying to achieve ultimately. Sales and coding should just be tools for that mission, they are not end goals

@TheLastCodebender brother I'm a 2nd year CSE student. I do not find interest in DSA. Many of my varsity students do CP and participate in programming contests. As I am weak in DSA I don’t find courage to participate in that. Is it necessary have proficiency in DSA to be a full stack developer?

Bro, the most important thing you didn't talk about, I want to know, which is what kind of chair you're sitting on. It seems comfortable. What's its name? Where can I get it? Note to all the Dopplers. Pay attention to your health, mate.

[@plutack]

Isn't actually building a website a chance and a way to showcase your skills? Why pass ip that opportunity ? What i would really want to know is should i put significant effort into in a personal website showcasing portfolio as a back end engineer looking for a n entry level job?

Do you think it'll be faster to become a developer with Python or with Javascript?

Twi different languages.. Better JS as its easier to get a job, bc with python you mostly need a Bachelor or Master or PhD

[@jaynaii5181]

@@waveril5167 I also thought JS would be faster. But I enjoy python more and I'm interested in AI/Machine Learning. But I also want to get a job asap. Quite the predicament lol. You think I can get a Web dev job using python(flask instead of react)?

[@ivo_sa]

Uff learning JavaScript in 1 Month seems unreachable for me 😂 Very good Video !

[@TheLastCodebender]

haha its definitely intense but the approach here is that you don't dive deep into the theory, you go through a course fast and then spend time building projects, that's how you will learn the most + the good things about projects is that you will constantly look things up when you get stuck so you will learn a lot like that. For javascript btw, I recommend this course: www.codecademy.com/learn/introduction-to-javascript

[@TheLastCodebender]

basically the advice I give to complete beginners: you learn the basics of coding through an intro course -> work on a cool project -> get stuck trying to build a feature -> search how to solve it (google/stackoverflow/chatgpt/yt tutorial/course/talk to someone) -> find solution -> learn -> build your next feature -> get stuck again -> search how to solve it -> learn -> etc. etc. That's the optimal way of learning IMO.

[@ivo_sa]

Yes Sounds Really Like a good method ! 👍

[@muhammedensaraslan2458]

Salamun alaikum brother I am 30 years old cardiologist, do you think is it too late to change my carrier?

[@TheLastCodebender]

WaAlaykum Assalam! I think its definitely possible, but you have to know that the market is brutal right now. If I was you and I wanted to become a software engineer, I would do this: 1. Sign up to a good bootcamp. Check the LinkedIn profiles of people who recently graduated from that bootcamp, check where they work. If you like the companies, means the bootcamp is good. If not, I would avoid it. If you don't find any bootcamps/can't sign up, then you can use the roadmap I created for you: lastcodebender.com/. Go through it and ideally try to have someone else who you are learning with (an accountability buddy/partner), it will make the experience much better and you will learn faster that way. You can use my discord server for that, maybe someone will be interested. 2. Use all the advantages you have. If you are a cardiologist, you have a very specific background that other programmers won't have, try to think how you can turn that into your advantage. One thing you could do is focus on healthcare companies and build a portfolio around healthcare projects, those companies will see these projects on your resume and it will help you standout. 3. Use your network. If you know anyone who can help you finding a job, talk to them. Try to create opportunities like that. It will help you get your first work experience, even if its small. In tech, work experience is huge, when you don't have any, it makes it very hard. You can also use LinkedIn to reach out to people working at companies you like, ask them questions about the job, explain your situation. It might even lead to interviews if you tell them you are interested in a job they have, and by that stage you updated your linkedin profile and they see it (it happened to me) All the best brother! Hope these tips help!

A month to learn JS? hahahahaha it will take anybody like 2-4 years to learn JS as a first language, its not just JS, is everything else related to programing, theres no 3 months path stop that

[@TheLastCodebender]

2-4 years? you don't need to do a phd in JS the periods I mention is if you want an intense fast track to become a full stack dev, where you code everyday, it's basically like a bootcamp program. If you don't want that, then it's longer but you don't need to spend years on it that's for sure, you need to move to more relevant techs like React or Nextjs once you have the fundamentals of JS, that's what is valuable in the market

[@jsantos1220]

Bro this video is just a huge ad for hostinger, deeply understanding HTML and CSS is an incredibly important step in your web development journey, don't listen to this guy he's just playing the KZbin game

[@TheLastCodebender]

Bro I explicitly say to learn HTML & CSS in the first step... I just say to use Hostinger or a similar no code tool for your portfolio website, there is no value to spend hours on tweaking some css, only you want to be a frontend developer only. You are much better off using that time building more projects that will teach you a lot and look great on a resume (which helps you find a job).
