Here to Learn

I'm Tea (@teateete), and I'm here to learn. Dev.to will be my space to document my learning journey in public. I have spent time being afraid to learn, fail, and grow especially in view of other people. I no longer want to remain stagnant and in hiding.

My goals are to:

Complete a data analytics course:
This learning path will focus on Microsoft Excel, SQL, and Python. I may also include Power BI. My goal for learning data analytics is to gain an understanding of using and managing data along with backend web development.
Complete a full-stack web development learning path:
This learning path is one that I have started and quit more times than I can count. I want to learn full-stack web development well enough to build a portfolio of projects. I'm starting with HTML and CSS, and will continue to build from there using the MERN stack - MongoDB (NoSQL database), Express.js (backend framework), React (frontend library), and Node.js (runtime environment).
Learn computer science and web development fundamentals: The plan is to do some learning on web fundamentals using free and low-cost resources online.
Combine my love of art and color to learn some design and UX/UI basics: I hope to build beautiful projects, and want to use UX and UI fundamentals to help me. I'm not sure yet how I will do this.

I hope the DEV.to community will join me on my learning journey! Let's connect here - follow me, leave a comment, and like and share this post! Excited to get started and learn with you!
