What's The Easiest Way To Become A Front End Developer? by LeahSarah1: 1:28pm On Dec 06, 2021
Firstly thanks to all who contributed to my first post.

So after making some research after my first post, I have come to the conclusion that breaking into Backend and QA roles are harder for junior developers. Also, there are very few Data Science roles in Nigeria and they require lots of experience to get them. So, I have decided to opt in for Front End Development (HTML, CSS, JS, REACT) since it gives junior developers a higher chance to break into the industry.

Once again, I would need the help of experienced Front End Developers to know the best path and courses to achieve my goals.

I am a Full Stack Engineer but I currently work as a Senior Frontend Engineer. If you are adventurous like me, you may add Angular to the frontend stack - That will make you stand out.

That being said, before now, the Startups were crazy about React until they realized that it is just a Library. Now they are talking about Nextjs which is a React Production Ready Framework - Nextjs gives you everything that is missing from React- No need for axios to make http request, you can build both front and backend using nextjs.
Based on my experience, the established enterprise prefer Angular for a project that requires CI/CD.

Furthermore, you may improve your React skills by picking Nextjs, once you are comfortable, you may pick up Angular.
