Front-end developer roadmap for 2021 🧵👇🏼

I started my web development journey exactly one year ago i,e. January 2020 and it's been a year since I'm in learning phase

In this thread I'll be covering

- All you need to learn about front-end development
- Tools and technologies
- Skills you need to learn
- Resources
First things first, you need an editor to write code. There are plethora of editors out there like atom, VS code, sublime etc

I recommend you to start with VS code. Why?👇🏼

🔹Many built-in features
🔹It's fast
🔹Large community
🔹IntelliSense code completion and debugging
Don't want to download an editor due to memory issue or something else?

Don't worry we have lots of online editors also👇🏼

Now you're all set to write code and create beautiful websites

A typical website can be divide into three phases

- HTML 🧱
- CSS 🎨
- JavaScript ⚙️
1. HTML

- It is used to build the skeleton for your website
- It's a markup language that totally operates on tags
- You can master it with 10 days

🔹 https://t.co/TlrsSM0dh9
2. CSS

- It is used to give the styling for your website
- Cascading Style Sheets, that totally operates on different properties
- You can learn it within 20-25 days but it will take time to master it
There are 520 distinct properties in CSS. But according to my personal experience, you will hardly use all of them.

Generally CSS revolves around👇🏼

- Box model
- Position
- Background
- Animation
- Media query
- Flex box
- CSS grid

CSS Frameworks

- In simple words CSS frameworks are the CSS code written by some other developers. All you need to do is just import in your HTML file and now you can add styling in your website with even writing CSS code by yourself

- Isn't it cool😍
Learning a particular CSS framework is pretty easy. You can learn them by reading official documentation
- Pick any CSS Frameworks by your choice👇🏼

🔹Tailwind CSS
🔹Bootstrap
🔹Bulma
🔹Materialize CSS
🔹Foundation

... and many more
JavaScript

- JS is used to add functionality and behavior in your website

- JavaScript is a popular programming and widely used language for Web Development

- You can't master JS in few days or months, It will take time

But you will be able to create websites in few days.
Start with the basic topics👇🏼

- Data types
- Loops
- Conditional statements
- Objects
- Arrays
- Functions

Document Object Model (DOM)

- With the HTML DOM, you can access, modify and changes the HTML elements

- When a web page is loaded, the browser creates a Document Object Model of the page
With the help of DOM, JavaScript can change the

- elements in the page
- attributes
- CSS styling

I mean now you have a super power to make changes in you webpage using JS

- Git is a Version Control system used for tracking changes
- GitHub is a code hosting platform of Git

You asked. So here are my thoughts on how osteopathic medical students should respond to the NBOME.

(thread)


Look, even before the Step 2 CS cancellation, my DMs and email were flooded with messages from osteopathic medical students who are fed up with the NBOME.

There is *real* anger toward this organization. Honestly, more than I even heard about from MD students and the NBME.

The question is, will that sentiment translate into action?

Amorphous anger on social media is easy to ignore. But if that anger gets channeled into organized efforts to facilitate change, then improvements are possible.

This much should be clear: begging the NBOME to reconsider their Level 2-PE exam is a waste of your time.

Best case scenario, you’ll get another “town hall” meeting, a handful of platitudes, and some thoughtful beard stroking before being told that they’re keeping the exam.

Instead of complaining to the NBOME, here are a few things that are more likely to bring about real change.
Trending news of The Rock's daughter Simone Johnson's announcing her new Stage Name is breaking our Versus tool because "Wrestling Name" isn't in our database!

Here's the most useful #Factualist comparison pages #Thread 🧵


What is the difference between “pseudonym” and “stage name?”

Pseudonym means “a fictitious name (more literally, a false name), as those used by writers and movie stars,” while stage name is “the pseudonym of an entertainer.”

Another common #question:

What is the difference between “alias” and “pseudonym?”

As nouns alias means “another name; an assumed name,” while pseudonym means “a fictitious name (more literally, a false name), as those used by writers and movie

As #nouns, the difference is that name means “any nounal word or phrase which indicates a particular person, place, class, or thing,” but stage name means “the pseudonym of an
OK I am going to be tackling this as surveillance/open source intel gathering exercise, because that is my background. I blew away 3 years of my life doing site acquisition/reconnaissance for a certain industry that shall remain unnamed and believe there is significant carryover.


This is NOT going to be zillow "here is how to google school districts and find walmart" we are not concerned with this malarkey, we are homeschooling and planting victory gardens and having gigantic happy families.

With that said, for my frog and frog-adjacent bros and sisters:

CHOICE SITES:

Zillow is obvious one, but there are many good sites like Billy Land, Classic Country Land, Landwatch, etc. and many of these specialize in owner financing (more on that later.) Do NOT treat these as authoritative sources - trust plat maps and parcel viewers.

TARGET IDENTIFICATION AND EVALUATION:

Okay, everyone knows how to google "raw land in x state" but there are other resources out there, including state Departments of Natural Resources, foreclosure auctions, etc. Finding the land you like is the easy part. Let's do a case study.

I'm going to target using an "off-grid but not" algorithm. This is a good piece in my book - middle of nowhere but still trekkable to civilization.

Note: visible power, power/fiber pedestal, utility corridor, nearby commercial enterprise(s), and utility pole shadows visible.
