• Lost in life. Need to choose a career

  Anyway now go to coursera.org and for $49 a month get the Google IT Support Professional cert. That gives you a discount for the A+ exam. With a sob story Coursera may reduce the monthly fee as well. Anyway you are halfway to an IT degree and can be admitted to WGU. Source: 5 months ago

• Found out my Professor for Fall 2023 Python Course is one of the worst reviewed professors at the school

  In terms of structure, consider following a book like Python for Everybody or Automate the Boring Stuff With Python. One of the hard parts of learning a language like python on your own is knowing what you should learn and the order you should learn it in--resources like these books or online courses you can find on Coursera are great for helping with that.

• GitHub Tutorial for Dummies?

  For GitHub, I'll say just do basic things and most importantly learn about merging and creating branch checkout, etc. Try to work with a team where if you even push in main by mistake it won't be a blunder. Tutorials are good but I was at the same place once. Git was scary lol. There are some intermediate things like rebase etc. But you won't need most of it. Just go with theodinproject.com it'll be enough and try... Source: 10 months ago

• What do you work on as a junior frontend developer?

  I’m a self taught frontend developer for about 1.5 years now. I learnt HTML CSS JAVASCRIPT on theodinproject.com, then picked up TailwindCSS, Bootstrap and React.
