My Journey To Getting A Remote Job by Savagr(m): 2:32pm On Jun 30, 2022
Yeah,
After a very long time of procrastinating, I've decided to keep tab of this one.
This will serve as a journal on my web development tutorial, mobile app development tutorial and blockchain development.
More details coming.

So
The first step is learning and practicing with w3schools, freecodecamp and YouTube with some additional materials.
The code is to learn, relearn and unlearn.
Today I started reading these additional materials below
It's a great read too.
Thanks to jashub
I'm already enjoying the book too.

Those people way the learn web dev with ebook.... Una the try ooo lol.


That's stone age pattern and one of the easiest way to fall asleep quickly I respect you guys for that.


Or those people way the learn development and be recording some things in a jotter.... It always puzzles me when they can always use stackoverflow and get accustomed to researching.... I see a lot of them in workspaces in Lagos...CCHUB to be precise.

Trying every means possible to get myself immensed in knowledge about web development and getting myself a remote job.
I got some night plan for this and I'm downloading some videos with a time range of 1-3 hours.

Nothing like Stone age Pattern bro, Learning can be achieved in many ways. Just follow what works for you. I still take notes in my jotter to make reference when needed. Sure Google and Stack overflow is there but having some diary is not a bad idea. I am currently learning Alx Full Stack Web Development and I take paper notes cos I feel its important to keep track of new stuff o learn.

Yea, taking notes is very okay. Even creating your own cheat sheets to help you remember stuff.

I don't have a laptop yet but I've been taking notes when reading through docs or watching videos on mobile. It has been more convenient for me, personally, so I'll also continue with it.

Also, I want to ask what kind of ID these foreign companies accept from Nigerians? Like, is NIN acceptable for them or is it just the usual trio of PVC, driver's license and international passport.

books are superior to text(online) or videos tutorials. Once you master the art of studying books from chapter to chapter deligently, sky is your starting point.

If you can get driver's license or international passport

Then all companies which appproves or accept Nigerians and require KYC or identification will approve you.

Drivers license and international passport has more prestige than other means of identification in Nigeria, your NIN inclusive

Hi sir/ma, If you wanted to go for web development, start with HTML, CSS, then Javascript (in between you will learn frameworks and get used to your favourite).

My little cent though.
