I just took my final for my cis 111 and Ik it’s introductory but I’m proud cause I feel like I learned so much!

After my last post, I realised so many people are still in college and have not heard about FREE Github Student Developer Starter pack

https://education.github.com/pack

You will get access to Free 6 months subscription of FrontendMasters.com (which is normally $390 a year)

It has predefined "learning path" i.e. if you want to be a Frontend Developer, folllow the path & take the courses accordingly, same goes for Full-stack developer & so on

Plus you will get so many other material like Free 6 months access to educative.io

It has 2 of the best courses to learn System Design & Data Structures & Algorithm + 84 most likely interview questions course i.e. Hacking the coding interview

Pus 3 week interview preparation bootcamp i.e. interviewCake

and so on.

And its free & won't cost you anything.

The Golden Guide to Landing a Developer Position

For months, if not a year or longer, I've been struggling with the concept of programming with self-teaching. I've understood basic concepts and syntax but when it comes to actually creating something and doing things on my own, I've struggled for one reason or another. Jumping from Js to Python and back every few weeks or months, taking my time to learn and not rush. I know HTML/CSS pretty well but I know I need to learn more so I can do the projects I want eventually.

I finally buckled down and went to a default yesterday, going off of the advice from someone here, "if you don't have any ideas, a 'todo' list is a good place to start."

I was working on it for a while yesterday and today, and just got it to perform basic functionality of adding the item with a button, and removing it once the task is completed. I haven't gotten a "done" list yet, but that's my next chunk of the project.

I know it's not much, and I know it seems simple as hell, but I'm so proud of myself because without tutorials or books I realized that all of the time I've taken studying and practicing basics has actually lead to practicality; I can actually use the skills I've learned and apply it to something. It's a small, small step for me but a step that I've been looking forward to some time and my confidence has increased tenfold in the past twenty-four hours just because I know, finally, I fucking get it. And it really is just as simple as doing your research in the moment. Relying on documentation, stack overflow, other code, and a lot of trial and error.

EDIT:Move to "done" has been implemented! I made an app! yay!

Who knows the answer to this?
