Well, you're definitely in the right place. Plenty of communities for all kinds and shapes of development. Backend, front-end, pragmatic, academic :)

By the way, how is the development market in Chile?

Thanks! I'm glad I found it.

I've seen a lot of job offerings here for developers, however most of them ask for 5+ years of experience which is a bit frustrating. Also, I've mostly seen opportunities for Back-End devs but maybe I'm not looking properly.

You are already going towards certificates which is a good thing, adding a portfolio will be a great help. A tip for searching jobs, it might sound very naive, but try to figure out the name of the role you want. Some total, might be irrelevant guesses, junior web developer, web developer trainee or junior frontend developer, anor use the filters available like experience on various sites like stack overflow jobs, Google jobs , Glassdoor, angel.co, remote work, and LinkedIn.

I hope you find something you like.

Oh that is something I'm struggling with, defining my role(s). Mostly because I would like to include other skills I have but still make my resume related to IT, it's like I can't seen to find the correct words...
