17th issue! If you missed the last few months, check them all out
here.
If it’s your first time here… (otherwise skip this part)
Being a web developer is a fantastic career option. You have many job opportunities, you can work around the world, and you get to solve hard problems. One thing that is hard, however, is staying up to date with the constantly evolving ecosystem. You want to be a top performing web developer, coder, programmer, software developer, but you don’t have time to select from hundreds of articles, videos and podcasts each day.
This monthly newsletter is focused on keeping you up to date with the industry, keeping your skills sharp, without wasting your valuable time. I will be sharing the most important articles, podcasts and videos of the month. Think Tim Ferriss and the Pareto Principle (80/20 rule) meeting the Software Development world. What’s the 20% that will get you 80% of the results?
What you missed in November as a Web Developer…
State of the Web Report 💃🕺
HTTP Archive recently released their state of the Web Report. It contains 20 chapters of data combined with expert advice/details so I recommend blocking out a weekend to read it. Some interesting highlights in there to keep yourself up to date with the industry.
But wait, this isn't it. Here are a few more reports that have come out including surveys to show you what is trending and what others are doing in the industry:
- Developer Skills Report
- Developer Ecosystem Report
- Github Trend/Activity Report
- Front End Tooling Survey
- A few we already mentioned in the past, but since you're here already: state of CSS and state of JS surveys.
Don't worry if you don't have time to go through all of these. I will be combining all of the insights from above plus a few secret sources to give you the best things to look out for and trends for 2020 in an article I will be releasing in December. Signup to the newsletter here if you want to be notified when that is released.
