complexBoss12:Honestly I don't teach. If you send me a PM too same thing. All I can do is guide you and show you the courses to take and what you should learn and that's it. You would still need to do all the work. |

Alusiizizi: Of course, that's where C# comes in, PHP and C# performes virtually the same thing.... And I'll pick C# any day any time cos it's more flexible. I'll even pick python over PHP any day. |

tensazangetsu20: Honestly, not quite. I still do have that imposter syndrome sometimes o... The only job I applied for was about 4months ago and I was forced to learn things just to scale through. I tried completing 4 out of 7 of the task. I submitted it like that. Yes, I did not get the job but they gave me some study resources to start with and encouraged me re-apply in six months' time. Honestly, that experience opened my eyes. I don't have any problem working with WordPress, Magento, Opencart, practically any/all CMS' but that isn't enough for me. I want something different and solid. lol, I even have my own private hosting server. (So, I do server management too amongst every other thing ( https://pdhosts.com ) I use this solely for my clients and not for the public. They never experience downtime or any server-related issue as I am always here to catch and fix anything. I have over 30 websites hosted on it ) I even built and configured some private server for some people who wants their own private space. That aside, I have this PHP (Laravel) project that checks the VIN of any car for free http://autocartalk.herokuapp.com/ Because I want something better, I started a React/Nextjs version of it. Here's the basic Figma design of it: https://www.figma.com/file/UyL6Bl9gkB2JJT0mVbqoS7/Vehicle-Vin-Check?node-id=18%3A887 And here's the design I'm working on using chakra UI for the first time.: https://vinfrontend./ dot app (nairaland dey comot the tld extention) The idea is to just keep building stuffs in my free time and now it's turning into a habit. Thanks for the compliments bro. 3 Likes |

kponkedenge: Underneath they're all the same. This goes for virtually all programming languages, syntax shouldn't prevent successful mastery. |

niel63: This is amazing. You should look to selling the license of some of these things on creative market or themeforest. The designs are really really good and it's a great way to make some income on your efforts and also get exposure and more freelance clients. 3 Likes |

Re: Should I Take This Job?(photo) by Ifesinachi22(m): 12:53pm On Dec 12, 2021 |
tensazangetsu20: Sorry please, but what did you study? I really want to study another thing entirely and I've been fascinated with computers. My fears is that i can't even type very well. Can someone that can't even type very well, Words, excel and PowerPoint be a good candidate for a computer science degree? Before you forget please, what did you study? Thanks and God bless |

tensazangetsu20: Wow, I'm having butterflies in my stomach... But i can't even type very properly. Like I'm a newbie in using a computer. Do you think i can succeed? |

You have not completed your apprenticeship, you want to start showing off with jobs. You are like some gullible Nigeria pastors that jump off to form a new church because they have started preaching at children classes. Go back and perfect your learning process. I love the way you started, but, try, endure to complete your stuff and be a guru. Thank you. 1 Like |

Alusiizizi: PHP and A Javascript framework built with Diff are two different things, the latter is a design pattern if you're not familiar with, you will hang PHP is not exactly hard compared to a framework like React 1 Like |

tensazangetsu20:Good evening boss, i am a newbie in the IT world but i want to be a guru as well, i dont mind how much it will take or how long it will cost me, i have already budgeted two years of my living for it starting from January next year. But the problem i am having is a mentor to advise me on the best way to go about it, i have to tins in my to do (web development or cyber security) but i prefer the later the most. See brother, i have never code before but i have little knowledge about html. Pls how do i go about this, i realy need to get a skill bro. Tho i am not starving, and am not jobless, my job pays my bills and effortlessly but i want to upgrade and double my hustle as i would soon become a father. Pls bro, i dont know if u can be my mentor, i wil appreciate this so much. |

slimjohn2k5:This should be OP best advice but what do I know? The thing is if you decide to wait till you can handle big projects by yourself, you might just be wasting resources on knowledge for a long period of time without earning much from it. Take that contract and outsource it! I’m talking from experience. 1 Like |

qtguru: The word you're looking for is specialization. As a programming language(more correctly, scripting language) their basic architecture are similar. Fetch data,process, produce output, identical architecture. The specializations come in when they interface with HTML. PHP allows for dynamic web pages while java script enables event driven web pages. |

Alusiizizi: Yes but React is built to detect changes and remove from a VirtualDOM and uses a diff algorithm, use Effect and use Hooks do not run like traditional evented JavaScript, it runs based on React was built so codes can be performed when effect has been fired , that paradigm is not JavaScript. Which is why I said you cannot learn in 24hrs if you are still struggling with JS, you are talking about something else unrelated. If you doubt me go read the internals of React and you will see how it works. 2 Likes |

tensazangetsu20: I'm afraid I'll have to disagree here. A good engineering field(Electrical, Mechanical e.t.c) would occupy that rank, why? Because this field also require the student to be a programmer as well, then self help(which you would have to do even if you majored in computer science) would fill in the gaps. |
Re: Should I Take This Job?(photo) by tensazangetsu20(m): 1:26pm On Dec 12, 2021 |
Alusiizizi: I would only rate electrical. Mechanical is the most useless aspect of engineering. Besides computer science goes more than just programming. Data structures and algorithms, systems design, discrete mathematics are just a few of the courses you will be taking as part of the requirements to be awarded a degree in computer science. An electrical engineer can still learn that but it will take time. |
Re: Should I Take This Job?(photo) by Alusiizizi(m): 1:27pm On Dec 12, 2021 |
qtguru: REACT is a JavaScript library so learning REACT implies learning JavaScript. BTW I am not a web developer but it took me less than 4~5 hours to learn JS. I had to for this freelance job that I worked on. |

Re: Should I Take This Job?(photo) by Alusiizizi(m): 1:39pm On Dec 12, 2021 |
tensazangetsu20: Seriously? Electrical engineering? Can't be. 1st degree in electrical engineering: Circuits fundamentals, circuits design, Orthonormal transformations(Fourier/Laplace), Programming, Probability and Statistics, Digital circuits, signal processing, more programming and even more circuits, not to speak of many more specialized sub-fields. CS cannot even shed light on the shadow of EE, the difference in breadth is just too vast. |
Re: Should I Take This Job?(photo) by Alusiizizi(m): 1:41pm On Dec 12, 2021 |
tensazangetsu20: Oh and before I forget, Electromagnetic Theory, Engineering Mathematics, the list goes on. |
