This guy does a really good job of actually explaining stuff without just saying the same tired things that get said on other channels. Good job Stefan.
Thanks Stephan this helped me so much. I often think I'm going to fail, but I need to focus on the basics and learn from my mistakes. I'm not afraid now. I'm going all the way with Php.
This was so helpful. I always feel so overwhelmed with all the things there are and how to decide what is important, since I'm still quite new to web dev. Thank you.
So true, after 10 years when I review my codes doing 3d model forward kinetics animation and it was like written that a baby can understand, keep things simple, good naming convention, Keep thing basic
Thank you very much, Stefan, for such a great video. I really appreciate that you have emphasised that it is not possible to learn everything about a language. This mindset that I need to learn everything before I can code and be a "real coder" has really been slowing me down. Hearing your words that you do not need to know everything and that it is the basics that are important - was incredibly important to me and my coding skills development. Thank you very much for your vlogs - they are helping a lot to get realistic ideas of coding.
Thank you , your non coding videos are so so useful for entry level or junior developers , you’re giving us the answer that will take us years learn by ourselves
+Stefan MIschook I recently started teaching myself to code and while bouncing around youtube I came across your videos. I really like your content and delivery, so thanks for making them and covering such pertinent topics. 1st A few comments: 1. Couldn't agree more about coffee! 2. Great advice regarding 'burnout', regardless of endeavor. 3. Although I'm already learning HTML, CSS through another training site, I will be purchasing your training to get deeper into JS and especially PHP. And then a couple questions: Someone I chat with on a forum said he learned to code from scratch and within 10 months he's now providing website creation services along with good sales copy, email marketing etc for companies with 'high paying' clientele (...companies that make many thousands off of a single job...). He says that within that short time he's learned to create real value for the customer by turning their site into more of a sales tool/lead generator and he's making low 5 figures per month. He also says there's a very good chance that anyone could replicate what he's doing. So my questions are: 1. Do you think this scenario is likely or unlikely? 2. What kind of time frame would you think is reasonable for someone to go from zero coding knowledge and assuming about 2 to 4 hours/day of training, and good professionalism (like the soft skills you mentioned in another vid) and some sales ability to being able to get enough work to make about $5000 per month as a freelancer? Keep up the good work!
great pointers. i am tackling an automated GUI to execute manufacturing software commands. a hard battle between simple code and complex idioms and routines. there are probable a billion ways to simplify my code, but it is my first project (writing in vba) and in territory no one in my company has tried, it is great fun developing it, im stoked.
@Tina Anastopoulos Agreed, the requirements can be ridiculous. Note though that usually that's what they want/prefer, even if it says Required sometimes. You can try applying anyway, and if you're the best candidate among those who applied, or if you have other successes you can point to you can make mention of those. Similar to finding a job that is a similar career but not quite the same as a given college degree, you can claim because you had success in one area/project, there's a better chance you can have success in other areas (as opposed to someone without any qualifications/accomplishments). They -should- understand that if you're fresh out of school or entry/junior level, you won't have any professional experience. Could also always try to get some experience on your own via individual projects. You won't be able to learn everything, but showing you can pick up a programming language and self study is a valuable skill in general Like the video around 7:29, practice the basics and don't get caught up in all the other 'sparkly' stuff ;p
2:45 you might want to put those... what are they called now? Cards? The links that appear in the top right, when you mention one of your other videos.
So question. You mention learning the basics and being strong with the basics. Is there any way you can point out all of the basics that you believe are essential for a web developer and programmer. I would really like to now mainly because I have that issues where I want to learn everything but I don’t have a solid grasp on the basics and I would like to stick to the basics so that I can become a more advanced developer
Awww, now I feel good about myself as an aging web developer. :D I always do my code and graphics from scratch, I'm not so into these new builders like WordPress.
Interesting info, thanks! I tend to naturally just try to get the app running (just get the functionality first, then get the bells, whistles, and fancy looks in, iterating it over to make it better). It's nice to hear someone else thinks that's a good way to program. Advice to avoid the sparkles (~7:29) and focus on the basics is nice. I feel overwhelmed at times trying to learn all the different languages/frameworks/tools at times, especially when I'm job hunting, as most applications expect/want experience in all these different areas. I am trying to get more exposure to everything, but I'll try not to sweat it so much
Just curious, have you tried organic coffee, and do you feel it gives the same effect? I haven't drank coffee in years, but the last time i had organic coffee, in general... it seems to be less potent and less effective. Thoughts?
I'm glad you expressed that the basics are very important. I guess I will continue pushing through this cs50 class everyone's raving about before I move on to python and then c#. python cus they say it's a good starting point and c# cus unity.
Hi. Check out my Python course - people really love it: www.killervideostore.com/video-courses/beginners_python_3.php .. Yes, a shameless self promotion. :)
Nice video, i'm a GIS guy and I learnt basic python to increase work productivity and data processing however I'm thinking about making a switch to being a programmer, but I fear to catch up to a level I don't have to google every 10 minutes to solve an issue will take years. How good is good enough?
Hi Stefan. Great work on the channel. Keep it up. I want to have your thoughts on using vanilla code as opposed to using a framework? Deep down I KNOW I should learn any of the PHP frameworks (I do work almost exclusively in PHP).. but I want to know what you think, your comparative perspective - since you were coding in the days before the types of frameworks we have today.
Just wondering, but is there a reason you dont mention C# or .Net? Do you advise against it generally or just are not really too familiar? Thanks & great videos
I had this overcoding state as well. Hardly did any programming for a couple of years. And now that I finally brought myself back to it I constantly have this feeling that I've quit and betrayded programming and now I'm back to it again and it feels like being back with a girl who I used to date but then we broke up and she's never gonna forgive me and take me back... yeah, I'm a weird person.
Stefan, first thank you for the great videos and content! I read in the comments that you have a JS course, but do you have any c# courses? Thank you for your time and response! Also, I have been teaching myself c# for about a year now, but being a family man, I sometimes only get an hour a night at best to study and practice. Is this even enough time to learn to code? Or should I give up for now and start again when I can dedicate more time? It's just unfortunate because when I started into this, I got that feeling where I knew in my heart that this was what I should have been doing since the day I was born. I've never felt that way before about anything in my life. Having said that, any thoughts of yours are greatly appreciated!
Keep working at it. There is a period of assimilation (if you will) that your brain needs to really get to the point where you really 'get' code. If that makes any sense. So exposing yourself in small chunks over time is very cool. I don't have a C# course, but since all the modern language share many similar concepts and structures, whether you learn JavaScript, Java, C#, PHP ... and other languages, the skills will transfer over nicely. My IWD course is perfect for guys like you, since it keeps track of what you've done, and takes you back to where you left off automatically. With the quizzing and challenges, you could go back and review them to quickly get back up to speed when you come back to it. C# is a cool language. Hope that helps, Stef
Hello Sir Mischook, I have learned the complete Joomla3 Code and it was possible to comprehend. Then I was trying to comprehend the nookuframe work, learn the mixin, decorate, command, chain of responsibility, adapter pattern concepts and still couldn't understand how the nookuframework works in detail. I use xdebug profiler as tool for it. Is the nookuframework easy to understand and I am to silly for it or am I using the wrong or to less tools for it?
You don't need to learn everything! I typically would use only a handful of patterns in my day-to-day work. Be careful not to overload your coding with tools that make jobs needlessly more complex.
This video explains why I roll my eyes every time i see a coder use templates in C++. Edit: I dont mean those simple single line templates either, im talking about those clowns that use it all over the place.
Hello Stefan, i am learning Java on my own, my knowledge is somewhere between beginner and intermediate right now. I understand very well OOP for my level and my next step is to continue for some period to learn and to finish some smaller project with gui and then to continue to learn only server side/back end for Java. Soon after that i will apply for intership job in my country in companies. Those weeks (2,3) i rest of coding i learn a lot of last several months and i deserve it :). But i research a lot those days and now i see i am much more interested in front end and looks easier than those task which i did in Java and what all are impend to learn it in future. I see many smaller and bigger companies in my country are hiring front end developers, there are more and more peoples which are interested in front and back end to learn. But not back-end with Java than PHP, Node, Python, Ruby,... Only people around me what they suggest me - if you learn Java, Java today is only for Android (i learned a bit of for Android apps but i noticed i have to know much better Java to continue for Android) and a little for EE applications. Back-end Java - forget it. I am skeptical in my chose right now. Maybe because i still learning and maybe when i get a job i will be satisfied and forget on personally suspects on my choice. I am not sure what to do. I can't stop it now and to start to learn HTML, CSS and JS from beginning. Any way i have to know latter those stuff when i start back-end Java (after those gui-s). In other hand Android programming is interesting for me too. I am confused :(
jeffin For now, pick a language (any) and stick to it until you're really comfortable with it. After you've learnt how programming actually works and built some apps of your own, it won't be so difficult to switch to another language. Goodluck! :)
@Stefan As a new developer is it ok to use other peoples scripts in your code? I'm learning about how to create forms in HTML and the author mentions that form validation itself is done with other languages outside the scope of the book. He mentions that you can find scripts online (eg. hotscripts.com) and utilize them in your code even if you don't know the language they're written in. Do you think this is bad practice for somebody learning to code? Thanks!
It's okay to use other people's scripts as long as you're putting in time to understand it and write notes about the techniques used so you can make it up yourself next time you face a similar problem.
Is reading 10books and applying every single things. Knowing a book letter by letter makes you pro straight away, instantly. If you could remember all of this. BOOM! And read through 10000 algorythms. If you had such a memory you would be instantly pro.
Hi Stefan, I'm taking your Interactive Web Developer Course right now. I like the way you teach. I'm thinking about buying your book too, will the book cover things that were not mentioned in the IWD Course? It's funny how I hear your voice for 2-3 hours every day since I started the course, you're really my teacher. :) Also, as always great video and very informative! The way how you got emotional about Java was so :D
Hi! There is a lot of crossover between the book and the videos, but in ways, I look at from a different perspective. So the book would compliment the IWD course, but it is not required. If you like to read, then it might be fun. Listen to me 2-3hrs a day ... that used to drive my ex nuts! ;) Thanks for the kind words about my videos. Stef
coding made you sick... that's how I've always felt, probably due to the way java was taught at my college. I just realized that I can't get around it if I want to be successful as an online entrepreneur. How do I get over my aversion for coding?
Simplicity is the king, well said. Yet saying that you can learn Angular in two hours is a bit hilarious, no pun intended. More like a year or two if you want to be moderately good. Because you have to know javascript inside out, css, html, typescript, principles, oop for typescript use etc, and Angular definitely isn't easiest framework out there. Remember that testing for a job will suppose you have several years of experience, so don't embarrass yourself by going after a job with a 3-month Angular experience, because you will look funny there. All the best. PS I correct the code produced by 1-2 year Angular devs all the time lol.
Stef, your vids are awesome very applicable and timely but I have a question i hope you can help I learned ORACLE WEBLOGIC as an admin now I can't find a job not enough experience or getting questions of weather I am a developer I answer no it's all over most want developers on Java, and J2EE sometimes PLQSL but the first two are mandatory can your course help address that issue for me?
Hi. I don't have any Java courses ... I have JavaScript which covers basic programming but not Java. What are your goals? Is to be a J2EE developer? Check out my videos where I talk about how the language you choose effects the type of work and workplace you will find yourself. That all said, the developer/coder is the king of nerds ... good place to go. Since you know databases, you already have a head start.
Comes down to good teaching in the end. Try my course on JS (it's in the Interactive Web Developer course) ... it's risk free. If you don't like it, I will give you your money back.
here some tipps to be great developer: max 6 lines in methods good naming conventions and style please don't do this > if(){ //some assignment }else(){ //some assignment if(){ //some assignment } else{ //some assignment if(){ //some assignment }else{ //some assignment } } } instead refactor all things in methods!!!!!
Nothing is worth in this life to do damage to your health. The greatest feel emotion in life is being healthy if you can achieve that with no drugs coffee and with minimum out of thousands of other dependencies you are good to go for rest of your life. I wish you would at least mention coffee specifics you recommend like brand etc more understandable. I hope that maybe at least one young man will read this comment and will take it into consideration
"(Software development is) much more complex than just about any other profession in the world" As much as I'd like to pride myself for having single-handedly developed VR apps, shiny web frontends and backend systems.. I think this is a fallacy. One can evaluate the complexity of something more and more once you get more familiar with it. Many professions are ridiculously complex if you go in-depth enough. I often tend to catch myself thinking that other professions seem much simpler, but that's just the surface I can see. That's a huge bias. Please be aware of that.

So grounded and informative. Well done, sir
Thanks
how the hell could you dislike this video?? The man is putting everyone at ease from the perspective of a real expert.
Thanks Stephan this helped me so much. I often think I'm going to fail, but I need to focus on the basics and learn from my mistakes. I'm not afraid now. I'm going all the way with Php.
Glad I could help. Check out my new videos ... I think you will really like them. Very code career oriented.
This was so helpful. I always feel so overwhelmed with all the things there are and how to decide what is important, since I'm still quite new to web dev. Thank you.

"You MUST have 15 years of ANGULAR, and, like, 10 years of REACT. " ~ Every ad for a junior web developer . LOL
This is bane of my existence lol
Somethings never change.
what the actual fuck.
Tina Anastopoulos that's crazy because Angular and React is relatively new.😂😂💗
@Tina Anastopoulos Agreed, the requirements can be ridiculous. Note though that usually that's what they want/prefer, even if it says Required sometimes.

Like the video around 7:29, practice the basics and don't get caught up in all the other 'sparkly' stuff ;p
subscribed on first look. Great guide. for me coding was nightmare your words relaxing and encouraging for me. thanks a lot.
you saved me. thanks for that. in the past days i think i'm not perfect in any languge , now i realized i can't be a perfect..
Don't forget to link and put the video you mentioned in the video for folks to click through to. Love your videos Stefan!
Thanks!
My cup of coffee is the 10-20k cycling I do every day! Doing that for 10 years (I am 30) ;)
glad I found your channel! keep up the great content
Appreciate it.
I love it! He makes it real, possible and always learnable.
I like your holistic view of being an effective programmer.
2:45 you might want to put those... what are they called now? Cards? The links that appear in the top right, when you mention one of your other videos.
So question. You mention learning the basics and being strong with the basics. Is there any way you can point out all of the basics that you believe are essential for a web developer and programmer. I would really like to now mainly because I have that issues where I want to learn everything but I don’t have a solid grasp on the basics and I would like to stick to the basics so that I can become a more advanced developer
Abiel Ortega the basics are the fundamental concepts: I strongly suggest that you check out a book titled programming logic by tony Gaddis
Awww, now I feel good about myself as an aging web developer. :D
I always do my code and graphics from scratch, I'm not so into these new builders like WordPress.
Interesting info, thanks!
I tend to naturally just try to get the app running (just get the functionality first, then get the bells, whistles, and fancy looks in, iterating it over to make it better). It's nice to hear someone else thinks that's a good way to program.
Advice to avoid the sparkles (~7:29) and focus on the basics is nice. I feel overwhelmed at times trying to learn all the different languages/frameworks/tools at times, especially when I'm job hunting, as most applications expect/want experience in all these different areas. I am trying to get more exposure to everything, but I'll try not to sweat it so much
Wow, one of the first videos I've heard of you. Great video! I could listen to you talk all day. Definitely subscribing!!
You are a gift to the so-called world of developers ; thanks for your sense and to keep it real
You are just awesome. Thanks for sharing your thought.
Cool video, thanks it’s every beginners dilemma, to go with quality or quantity
Just curious, have you tried organic coffee, and do you feel it gives the same effect? I haven't drank coffee in years, but the last time i had organic coffee, in general... it seems to be less potent and less effective. Thoughts?
I don't believe caffeine makes you a better programmer. Nothing beats good old fashioned sleep, exercise, and a healthy diet.
Well everyone knows the world works differently for ducks :)
Stay old fashioned when people like Musk are new fashioned.
true.. it is some hipster mindset.. to say drink coffee to write code. They generally say it is look cool.
Some people metabolise coffee differently. It makes them more anxious than smart. So it comes down to genetics again.
@@sandra1761 Epigenetics overrule genetics. You have the power to choose!
Genetics = template
Epigenetics = logic
Thank you for sharing Stefan, this is very good advice.
Hey Stefan ....This Video is in My Top 10 in terms of My Favorites,
from the Videos Of You. Thank You! 🙏👏👍💰🐍💪😁

Great video, thank you . Lots of helpful things in this video.
Great video, Thanks Stefan! Love your channel... Do other forms of caffeine work just as well as coffee? For example, mountain dew?
I avoid sugar and carbs.
Ah.... Do you know if they have the same effect though? XD
This channel is such a godsend! Top coding channel on youtube, hands down! Can you make more videos on machine learning by any chance? :)
I had this overcoding state as well. Hardly did any programming for a couple of years.

Sir you are awesome your videos inspires me , love you so much you are my roll model , please keep sharing these wonderful vlogs,
Thanks! Persistence and a calm mind will get you there.
+Stefan Mischook Yes definitely sir , thanks for kind words
Errors is a must 💯💯💯
Thanks for that at 7:14. Gone through this
Nice as De Niro and brillant experience sharing, thanks
Clean code matters alot
I'm in the phase of burnout, I'm trying the pomodoro technique and only 7 sessions of 25 minutes using focus@will and it healped. Any more ideas?
Stefan, first thank you for the great videos and content! I read in the comments that you have a JS course, but do you have any c# courses? Thank you for your time and response!

Thank you for your advice Sir Mischook,
from now on I will use my own code to solve Problems even in JoomlaCMS :-)
This video explains why I roll my eyes every time i see a coder use templates in C++.
Edit: I dont mean those simple single line templates either, im talking about those clowns
that use it all over the place.
Hello Stefan,
i am learning Java on my own, my knowledge is somewhere between beginner and intermediate right now. I understand very well OOP for my level and my next step is to continue for some period to learn and to finish some smaller project with gui and then to continue to learn only server side/back end for Java. Soon after that i will apply for intership job in my country in companies.
Those weeks (2,3) i rest of coding i learn a lot of last several months and i deserve it :). But i research a lot those days and now i see i am much more interested in front end and looks easier than those task which i did in Java and what all are impend to learn it in future.

Rokin Maharjan yeah.i am going on with Spring now, Everyone around calling me stupid,i don't care.... I am all in...
I've been doing Spring for about a year now and I think its a pretty good framework. Haters gonna hate. Keep coding :D
Rokin Maharjan yeah. Since I'm a college dropout..and spring is mostly used in large companies, it's hard to get a job in spring without a degree
I time travelled to watch, I don't recommend it, time travel is not for the faint hearted.
Good advice, the effort feels worthwhile lol
Stefan, you need a podcast channel!!!
I really like your channel, sir.

Hi Stefan, I'm taking your Interactive Web Developer Course right now. I like the way you teach. I'm thinking about buying your book too, will the book cover things that were not mentioned in the IWD Course? It's funny how I hear your voice for 2-3 hours every day since I started the course, you're really my teacher. :)
Also, as always great video and very informative! The way how you got emotional about Java was so :D
Hi! There is a lot of crossover between the book and the videos, but in ways, I look at from a different perspective. So the book would compliment the IWD course, but it is not required. If you like to read, then it might be fun.
Listen to me 2-3hrs a day ... that used to drive my ex nuts! ;)
Thanks for the kind words about my videos.
Stef
Nice points! I like your style. :)
Yeah, its really helpfull^^ So back to the basics!
coding made you sick... that's how I've always felt, probably due to the way java was taught at my college. I just realized that I can't get around it if I want to be successful as an online entrepreneur. How do I get over my aversion for coding?
You forget something, Mr Canuck Nerd. Lack of sleep is usually a indication of burn out. Right work / rest patternns, so important.
Great video! I learned a lot from watching this video :) Cheers!
Simplicity is the king, well said. Yet saying that you can learn Angular in two hours is a bit hilarious, no pun intended. More like a year or two if you want to be moderately good. Because you have to know javascript inside out, css, html, typescript, principles, oop for typescript use etc, and Angular definitely isn't easiest framework out there. Remember that testing for a job will suppose you have several years of experience, so don't embarrass yourself by going after a job with a 3-month Angular experience, because you will look funny there. All the best. PS I correct the code produced by 1-2 year Angular devs all the time lol.
Whats your age ?
Great advices, thank you!
Thanks
This is an awesome video. Thank You!!!
Thanks.
Stef, your vids are awesome very applicable and timely but I have a question i hope you can help I learned ORACLE WEBLOGIC as an admin now I can't find a job not enough experience or getting questions of weather I am a developer I answer no it's all over most want developers on Java, and J2EE sometimes PLQSL but the first two are mandatory can your course help address that issue for me?
Hi. I don't have any Java courses ... I have JavaScript which covers basic programming but not Java. What are your goals? Is to be a J2EE developer? Check out my videos where I talk about how the language you choose effects the type of work and workplace you will find yourself. That all said, the developer/coder is the king of nerds ... good place to go. Since you know databases, you already have a head start.
I love all your videos
CSS3 is literally a godsend as a web developer.
Indeed!!!
what you have with Java i got with C#
I like your videos the most.
Any the best method to learn JS? I have a lot of problems with it. I know HTML, CSS, but JS is hard for me.
Comes down to good teaching in the end. Try my course on JS (it's in the Interactive Web Developer course) ... it's risk free. If you don't like it, I will give you your money back.
Define "basics".
Very Informative. Thanks
Stefan is damn good 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Thank you.
What's your rule when to create a new class?
I create new classes when I have logical separation in code. So for example, I would have user object and a validation object.
Stefan Mischook how about login and register? would they be two classes?
Good advice.
Thanks
here some tipps to be great developer:
max 6 lines in methods
good naming conventions and style
please don't do this >
if(){
//some assignment
}else(){
//some assignment
if(){
//some assignment
}
else{
//some assignment
if(){
//some assignment
}else{
//some assignment
}
}
}
instead refactor all things in methods!!!!!
this is a treasure!
Thanks!
Is Stefan married?
I would marry him Lol
@@CaptainKnee I don't think he's gay
Your 20 cents on what makes a great coder? lolz great vid
Shhh...inflation
Advertisements is super
thank you very much
Thanks
Thank You sir
Welcome.
coffee is bad man.. ginseng, ginko biloba, maca, yerba mate etc.. are better
also lots of neutropic can help..
Nothing is worth in this life to do damage to your health. The greatest feel emotion in life is being healthy if you can achieve that with no drugs coffee and with minimum out of thousands of other dependencies you are good to go for rest of your life. I wish you would at least mention coffee specifics you recommend like brand etc more understandable. I hope that maybe at least one young man will read this comment and will take it into consideration
My $0.2 on what makes a great coder.. Isn't it $0.02? Defect 001
When others give 2 cents, Stef gives you 20... (look at the description ;)
LOL! I was under promising and over delivering! ;)
Who else codes while they listen to him?
Mr. Worldwide :)
"(Software development is) much more complex than just about any other profession in the world"
As much as I'd like to pride myself for having single-handedly developed VR apps, shiny web frontends and backend systems.. I think this is a fallacy.
One can evaluate the complexity of something more and more once you get more familiar with it. Many professions are ridiculously complex if you go in-depth enough. I often tend to catch myself thinking that other professions seem much simpler, but that's just the surface I can see. That's a huge bias. Please be aware of that.
lovesJava = True
I just realized, that you have Ukrainian surname. Am I right?
Cat ready code!
less is more.
not for s x or p nis.
