I organize my learning path in a way something like this. I've been using Google keep to write "flashcards" of things that I need to learn and a very directly documentation about what I already know. It works very well but recently my new job is stealing me a bunch of point of live
That's a great idea of flashcards. I hadn't thought of something like, when you're satisfied with understanding them items, you can even then turn them into blog posts to look back at.
Hi Amy, thanks for sharing this, I'm a big fan or making learning plans. I included your post in my video review of career insights of the week:
Dev.to Career Insights of the Week

Thank you Marek, I enjoyed watching your video it was very informative.
This is very smart work. Not having this kind of granular plan when I first started learning development definitely slowed me down. I'm going to recommend to newer coders to follow Kamran Ahmed's Web Developer Roadmap, and I'm also going to be blogging about individual nodes on this, how to know when you're proficient enough in something to move on, etc. I really wish this had existed when I first started out.
Hi Michael,
Thank you for the comment and the link to the Web Developer Roadmap, this will be really helpful flushing out more of my tasks on my learning path. I really appreciate it.
Amy, great insight! Do you just make the learning plan based on interest, or a target goal of career skills?
I've wondered about (and may end up making) some career paths for beginner devs. There's so many shiny things out there, it can get overwhelming to a newbie :)
This is great! What are the two columns on the right for? I'm working on making my "curriculum" a little neater, so I love seeing how other people organize their notes/thoughts/learning.
Hi Desi,
The second column is for the week I plan to learn it in, I did try picking an exact date but it never happened so I thought I would put a week to learn that topic.
The third column is what dates I learnt them on to see if I have a "preferred" day to learning them, i.e. when I learn best. For example, I find that i'm more refreshed and motivated the start of the week but by Thursday / Friday i'm pretty worn out so I don't learn it that well.
That's awesome, I don't have anything similar to yours.
For me, it has been more of a theme of what I would like roughly do for the year and where do I get that knowledge to do it.
Thank you, I did originally try to pick a topic and learn that but found it was really suited to my learning style so I personally needed to be a bit more specific. It seems to be working so far, I probably will most likely go to more themed topics when I get better.
Can you please share the link to the google doc so it can be a guide for others
Hi Taiwo,
I've created a blank one here: My learning path
