If you're learning or planning to learn Web Development in 2021 then this thread is for you

🧵👇🏻

WHERE TO START? Front-end or Backend?

- Well this may be a debatable question but I would suggest you to start with front-end development

- It depends entirely on the individual but in my opinion, starting with front-end development has its advantages.

WHY TO START WITH FRONT-END DEVELOPMENT?

- More visual content gives you an aesthetic vibe

- You can share your creations

- Easier to get feedback as you can show your webpages to any non technical person as well

FUNDAMENTALS ARE IMPORTANT

- Don't rush! Spend some time on HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You can do pretty amazing things using these three languages

{ 4 / 16 }
- Make sure to learn and build some web pages using HTML and CSS before jumping onto JavaScript

- JavaScript is the backbone of web development, Don't rush to start with React/Angular/vue or any other front-end framework or library

{ 5 / 16 }
- I don't think we should set some time after which you can start with front-end framework. Just make sure to be develop your strong hold on the foundation.

- I spent about 3-4 months with HTML, CSS and JS

DOCUMENT YOUR LEARNING✍️

- Take a short note of what you learn on the daily basis will be helpful in the long term

- Whenever you go for an interview or some test, you can revise through your notes

{ 7 / 16 }
- You can also share your learning, projects or anything on social media. It also helps you to be up-to-date

- Write your achievements or failures while learning a specific topic, create tutorials, write article, etc

{ 8 / 16 }
There are a lot of free tools and courses on the internet you can start with

- I always recommend start with a crash course so that you can have taste of things. Later on, you can buy a course or learn by self teaching

DYNAMIC FIELD🚀

- Web development is a constantly evolving field. To be a great developer, you need to stay updated

- Almost daily, we come across with new concepts, technique, framework, library, designs, etc. So as to survive strongly in this world, you should be updated
- In order to keep up with these, You can read latest article, watch YouTubers, be active on social media, etc

- It will be more beneficial if you can put new concepts into practice. It will help you to understand a specific concept more accurately and effectively

THERE IS ALWAYS A SLIGHT MARGIN TO IMPROVE🍀

- You can't be perfect in this field but you can try to be

- Always be open to learn new things, as this is the vast field learning new techniques always pays off

{ 12 / 16 }
BE POSITIVE😁

- During your journey you will face many challenges. But it does not matter. What matters is your attitude towards your problems

{ 13 / 16 }
- I started learning programming on my old PC. I used to write code in my phone as well. But I didn't give up

- Frustration is the basic side effect of coding. Just take a break. No need to burden yourself

{ 14 / 16 }
This all may sound like a little hectic but it's actually not.

Do not burden yourself. Just try to code daily so that you can develop consistency inside you. Does not matter for hours or minutes

{ 15 / 16 }
That's pretty much it. Don't think much just start. Let me know if i can help you in any way

All the best😄

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”

Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?

A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:


2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to

- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal

3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:

Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.

Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.

4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?

To get clarity.

You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.

It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.

5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”

Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.
