A freelancer might have months of no clients too but full time jobs are always certain of pay by month ends... Freelance jobs are more demanding especially if a Nigerian is your client... Trust me I'm tired of freelancing I need a remote job at the moment.

Maxxim:
You're right boss, I believe someone whose mind is made up would have made some effort instead of whining all day.

Thanks for the heads up, enjoy your weekend sir

Tenrack:
bro. Good day. Are you just starting out?

Maxxim:
No, it's been a while now

Tenrack:
abeg I fit tag along? I need resources and someone to keep me on my toes

Maxxim:
I can't keep you accountable cause I struggle myself, I can only give suggestions and resources which isn't a specific course, I watch different youtube videos which and some books also. If you need a roadmap that'll make things easier I'll suggest you sign up for the havard cs50 course start from the introduction to computer science then the web development course.

Tenrack:
bro that Harvard course I tried it, mehn . I wasn't feeling it won't lie.

Maxxim:
You're not supposed to feel it bro, that's how it feels, it's just like breaking through a concrete wall, so one has to be intentional about it.

If that path doesn't feel interesting to you there's frontend mentor.

Tenrack:
mehn.. can I send a DM please

Maxxim:
Sure bro, the email on my signature

Tenrack:
ok. Sending it now. Thanks

GREATIGBOMAN:
Trolling is my full time job and very high in demand these days


Still here waiting for when you'll finally quit and migrate to runs business which is your destiny.

This programming thing will never work for u!

I created this thread because I've finally arrived at an answer to the question I've been having for the past month. What languages should I focus on to get jobs as a beginner developer.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist but the answer I've gotten is making me lean a bit in that direction regarding this subject.

For the past 3 years, social media has been pervaded with lies about the technologies that gives a beginner an advantage in the current job market, especially for those who are self taught.

I've done my research and these are the in demand technologies locally and abroad.

For Frontend:

Reactjs (Redux -Nextjs - Gatsby)
Typescript.
For styling: Tailwind

For Backend:
Nodejs,
PHP with laravel framework
Java with Springboot frame work.
On few occasions I see some ASP.net and Ruby on rails, but the highlighted are the ones that always come up.

For Data Bases: Postgresql and MySQL

On freelance sites, the most in demand language is PHP and I see lots of jobs needing wordpress, magento, drupal and shopify knowledge.

But when you go on social media, everyone will tell you to learn basic HTML CSS and JavaScript as if any company would employ anyone that knows just that. Even learning basic react without any added frameworks is not enough for a front end developer.

The worst is those that tell you to learn Python. I almost never see any Jobs for Python, whether it's the Django framework or Flask. Most jobs in python are in Data science and Machine learning, and you have to be a data scientist or advanced mathematician to work in those fields.

The amount of gatekeeping and lies is astounding. Everyone says PHP is dead, yet, one in every three jobs I see requires PHP.
Four in every five freelancer jobs require PHP.

The only reason I'm even learning Python is just to use in it in solving data structures and algorithms and I won't use it beyond that. I don't have time to start learning Java as I'm preoccupied with JavaScript for frontend and backend, along with DSAs and some PHP laravel. In the future I'll pick it up.

Programming isn't saturated, it's just filled with clueless, incompetent people with half-baked skills who haven't done the right research.

Guys please help me rate this Android app. It's my production:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nigerianstatequizgame.nigerianstates

AutoshalomUSA:
It’s good educational tool . I know many adults that do t know these , not that it matters anyways . But it’s good to know about where you are from . So the history can last longer .
Good app concept , Improve the UI designs and you might be on to something.

chiedozie198100:
I'm very grateful for your critique.
Please any specific part of the UI u think needs improvement?

AutoshalomUSA:
The button sizes could be reduced . Could use the green and white colors . Try a more cooler font .
You got it !
