Stuck in a dead end blue collar job but have always dreamed of working in IT but have no idea where to start.

Free Code Camp

I was an electrician for about 10 years. Got sick of the work and environment and knew I needed to get out. I did part of the freecodecamp.org course, and learned the basics of javascript, HTML, and CSS. I then dabbled in Python at dataquest.io and datacamp.com but realised I wasn't interested in data science. However, I learned Python had more versatility than analytics. After 8 months of playing with Python I managed to land a gig as a junior dev where the JS and HTML skills also came in handy.
