I graduated from the University 12 years ago. Since then I have been jumping from one job to another with no progress in sight. I discovered that I have been stagnant for Years, so I decided to learn a skill.

I started by learning how to make footwear, I learnt that for a year but I later discovered that it's not what I want to do, although I can make every type of footwear even boots.
Last year I took an online course in frontend web development, for 6 months I studied for an average of more than10 hours daily learning from HTML and now React.js. I learnt figma, scss, CSS, Version control, jquery, bootstrap, Chakra UI and react.js, it was a tough one because I had to forfeit other means of making money. I got hungry so many times, I used my last card to buy data so I can keep studying and doing my projects.

Earlier this month, I finished by portfolio project, I had already worked on 4 projects using react, Jquery, Chakra UI and bootstrap. I designed coupled of web pages using figma.

Earlier this month, my girlfriend who's a data analyst sent me a link for a front-end developer role. In my mind, I didn't feel like I was ripe enough so I didn't apply. 2 days later, I decided to give it a try and so I applied. I was called to come for interview this Monday.

On getting there, the company was working on this revenue web app project they are doing to for a particular state government. I was asked to develop the UI of one of the pages using react, CSS and Tailwind. I have heard of Tailwind before but I have never used it.
I told the interviewer that I have never used tailwind and that I'm proficient using bootstrap. He replied that I should go through tailwind documentation and then use it to style the page on top of react.

So I started reading the documentation, I discovered that it's syntax is somehow similar to Chakra UI which I have used once in my project, the are the same concept of class utility. So I decided to start coding, getting snippets from the documentation and then applying my Chakra UI knowledge to work around it.

To cut the long story short, I coded from 9am in the morning and delivered the page by 5pm.

I was sent an appointment letter today. So my tech journey officially started. It's a junior role though but I'm glad I broke the ice.

The salary is what I have never earned in a month since I was born. 😊

I actually started coding since 2022, but the discipline to be consistent is my major barrier.

congratulations

Congratulations, I'm currently learning python language and I'm mid proficient . Hopefully I'll take the PCAP certification soon, then start learning SQL although I have little knowledge. I pray my story turn out good soon. I'm learning from W3school site. Python is simple and interesting.

Congratulations but my naughty mind keeps tells me it won't be for long before your girlfriend start telling her friends she made you who you are. Before we know what's happening, she'd start telling anyone who cares to listen how you were doomed more than a decade until she used her magical hand to set you free.

I'm sorry but SuperOnyi's mind is like a broken used condom, no man uses it but since I've been diagnosed half insane, my brain washes and stitches this condom until it expands like an overused panties.

This is what you must do to keep her even more loyal, prepare for a romantic date and order enough spicy suya, make sure it is very spicy enough to drive a Yoruba man nuts. Get her hollandia yoghurt and smile as you watch her cough with catarrh running from her nose, make sure you keep enough bottles of water.

While she's already complaining of how spicy it is, tell her how much you've loved her and how you've always wanted to treat her like your ancestors did to their wives.

You can either buy lasticle by our very own ilegendd now or get what we call buratanci in the North, while you're slamming her doors; think of all the pain you've gone through since you were born, think of all the pains your parents went through, think of how messy Nigeria is, and think of the Biafra war...

After this, she will become even more loyal and submissive. You can send a token from your first salary to show appreciation, you're welcome.

Congratulations once again!

your story should teach those always finding job only a lesson...no pain no gain!!!!

Congratulations bro.

I actually started coding since 2022, but the discipline to be consistent is my major barrier.

What platform did you use to learn?

meta frontend coursera course.

Although, you will still need some other resource but this will teach all the basics.
You can actually learn from any resources if you are determined. And in tech, you can never stop leering. No one is perfect here, if you want to stop reading then tech is not for you

Are you from a science background?

Does coding involve a lot of maths? Complex maths?

Congrats man! More wins!
