Massive congrats!
Thank you Peter!
That's huge! Well done!

You can do anything, make your new Goals.. you can also achieve that.
Yes definitely!
I just landed a job as a full-stack developer after a year of learning and practicing.
I have my second child due soon so the timing couldn't be any better! I get to work remote doing what I love, living the dream.
Please point me to resources you referred to. I want to switch from sales to development. I have degree in commerce.
The Odin Project - basically a free path into full stack development. I would recommend trying to spend 2 hours everyday, build as many projects as possible, and constantly be learning (you shouldn't have a choice anyway).

Josi. Thank you so much. I will reach out to you if I have any doubts. By the way what web technologies have you mastered.
I wouldn't say that I have mastered any as I have only been working a year and I haven't had a day where I don't learn something new. But, I can build something pretty well with React, Node, WordPress, and php.
This is the result of working for at least 2 hours every single day after deciding to start.
Javascript is so vast. Trying to get the basics
Congratulations on all counts!
Wow, dream comes true ๐๐
Congratulations!!! What an achievement, and so good that itโs remote

Published my ebook titled 100 Page Python Intro. There are many books for complete newbies to programming, but very few for those already familiar with basics and looking for a quick guide. So I wrote one and learned a lot in the process.
