hii mam after learning full stack what steps i should do for gaining experience
I advise you to build and deploy real-world projects. This shows practical experience, even if it's not from a professional job. Aim for 2 to 3 solid projects and add them to your resume as experience, especially if they solve real-life problems.
Project ideas: A task manager, A blog platform where you document your learning journey
Also, try to contribute to open source, even if it's a small fix or improvement. It shows you're capable of collaborating with others in a real development environment.
You can apply to Internships and junior roles after this.
thanks ,how i make project like watch utube tutorial or build by myself
I would advice you do more of research when building projects.
Let's say you want to build a blog site, don't watch youtube video(s) and build except you are still learning fundamentals. If you have gotten a good amount of experience on how to start building a project, then start.
You start by breaking the features out and planning based on priority. Example: For the blogging site, you need to create the category before the post because category is a child to a post. Else, you would go back to edit the post (which is not bad but if you plan properly, it will be more straight forward).
As you build, you research as you get stuck. It will take more time but will build your strength more and you will understand every part of the project.
But if you watch videos and build, you don't fully understand some decisions the developer made and if asked to redo it, you might need the video(s) as a guide again.
In the end, everyone has their learning style and how best they learn. If videos gives you in-depth and clearer understanding when building, why not.
thanks i build some of project like task manager ,instaclone(backend like like ,comments ,post) ,twitter clone(fronted) these are i can make by myself i learn from video bt main thing i want to build confidence over my fear show myself that i can as (nontech) it is feel like shitt so for what i should do for build confidence
also mam i also targeted outreachy august
That's a solid plan. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need any support or have questions along the way.
so what should i do to overcome this fear
You are on the right track by building projects and wanting to grow.
Fear is normal, we all feel it, but confidence comes with consistent action.
For me, writing scares me a lot. I can be on one content for over 2 months (that's how bad). But this year, I challenged myself and I have been consistent.
I suggest you keep building (start small, but aim for completion). Ship projects (even imperfect ones) to GitHub and publish some live.
After each project, learn and understand the process. If you can, write about it. Then pick up a more difficult project and start the cycle.
Share your work on LinkedIn, Twitter (X), it helps you feel seen and accountable.
Ask questions and don't stay stuck alone for long. Reaching out (like you just did) is applauding.
Join communities too (I will check and share some later). Being around others learning too helps you feel less alone and more inspired.
Finally, as you are still building yourself, I advice you use less AI tools. AI tools are awesome but best to boost productivity and not skill. For now you are building your skill, you don't need short cuts. When you have mastered your skills, you can then use AI tools to speed up development process. Because you fully understand the process and know exactly what you are doing.
so u mean i start contribution on github or something else
Yes, build projects and push to your GitHub account. If you don't know how to do it, you can search for youtube videos on beginners guide on GitHub
thanks for your time mam
u r also developer how do you make project or also what do u currently doing how u get there i am excited about story
Yes, I am a developer. I recently shared a glimpse of my tech journey here - dev.to/dinakajoy/not-starting-over...
The advice I shared earlier is the same approach I follow. The tech industry is constantly evolving, and we, as developers, must evolve too. There is no such thing as a "master", we are all learning and growing.
Currently, I am focusing on integrating AI into backend projects. While I am a full-stack developer, I have decided to hone in on backend + AI integration. I research, build, write, and teach, all while pushing myself to learn more every day.
by yourself
mam do you ever contributing open source
Yes I do. I contribute to the OCaml community.
I plan to evolve and contribute to AI/ML and Python projects also
