Its certainly true that becoming a backend developer in 6 months is hard for beginners who never touched code. But everything is possible under hard work and consistency. if they're dedicated and commit 2-4 hours every single day learning to code, its become easy. nothing comes easy first. finally, getting a job is highly dependent on your interview preparations and communication skills I believe. There are lots of programmer out there who had outstanding skillsets but not good at communication, thus didn't land a job... yet.

If you said becoming a frontend developer in 6 months that is possible for like you said hard work and consistency and dedicated to commit up to 2-4 hours every single day learning to code, Cause they could learn html CSS and fundamental's of JavaScript under 6 months like i did and i never touched code in my life until last year took me month to learn html and about month and half with CSS cause i didn't understand the positioning and layout. and JavaScript took me abit longer due to for loops and i didn't understand that you literally have to be so specific with every line of code else it will just throw an error lol. I strongly disagree with backend developer in 6 months but that's my opinion other than that i enjoyed reading your article anyway.

It depends on the individual's learning phase or how much effort they put in, I believe. Anyway thank you so much for sharing your own experience.
