You have been a great discovery. Apart from your advice, it is a pleasure to hear your excellent pronunciation that always helps those of us who do not have English as a mother language. Good luck!!

thx for this. Trying to self teach myself and this is great to know. Do you have any advice for self-taught developers trying to get into the industry during covid? People say to network but how can you find those opportunities where you wouldn't be able to attend if it was at a bootcamp or school event?

Another great question! I'm a strong believer in building online communities and will have a video coming out next week on how to do that with Twitter. Maybe that will help! I also have a video on finding a tech job with LinkedIn that could help 😊

Good overview :) I always wondered if in some cases/companies or with some manager, anybody could be negatively judged because he didn't do enough on the previous day 😄I kind of always had this apprehension 🤫 what do you think?

Good question! In my experience that's not the case at all.. if things are going slowly you might be asked what's preventing you from progressing, but that's the idea: if you're new to the tech, you just say "I'm still wrapping my head around React so I've had to watch a few tutorials before touching the code", or if it's a new codebase it is 100% expected that you would lose a day or two (or more) just understanding what the existing code is doing before writing a single line yourself. Generally, they just want to know if they can help: being 'slow' as a junior is expected!
