Great tips, not just for a beginner. Learning those shortcuts for IDE is great specially duplicating lines with alt + shift + (arrow down || arrow up) and then hold alt + (arrow down || arrow up) to move that line of code up and down is a huge time saver instead of ctrl + c and ctrl + p ;) Love the video, Dorian keep it up!
Oh man, they make you so much more productive, I totally understand why people like vim for that same reason. One day I will make an effort to learn vim and never have to touch my mouse again... Just not today lol! I really appreciate you watching my videos and giving feedback, thank you Chris!
@@DorianDevelops Haha theres a goal ;) The views and the feedback are well deserved. These videos are very well put together. The background, audio, music it all flows. Well done!
@@MoralKombato Please don't involve 2.38 billion people into your crap, we are happy were we are, and the bible only says this type of shit is the devil. I know its not, but you mentioning the bible of all things in a intellectual video is fucking stupid and you need to confess that shit, you are causing grief for me and other users. Completely un-fucking necessary.
Do these steps in THAT order: 1. Decide what You wanna do as a coder - mobile apps, games, or maybe web dev? 2. Check job offers from that branch and see what stack do they work with. 3. Learn needed stack, so learn node, express, js or js and react/angular, or python (and django, django rest framework), ruby and rails, flutter and dart, etc 4. After tutorial(s) start making your own projects in that stack using docs, stack overflow, google. You will not need to know everything even as a senior so don't be afraid to ask and copy code that works. 5. After 3 small apps do 1-2 actual big projects. 6. Master GIT. You're ready to be a coder.
What you said is absolutely true. I like your experience on self teaching code. Many people just give up thinking that it's difficult or confusing. Hope this video reaches out to all self taught programmers. ✌🏼
Im 2 months into javascript/html/css and the biggest challenge for me is that when i see an exercsise, but idon't even know where to begin with to solve the problem... Then my confidence decreases and i want to quit. But then i solve one exercise and i my confidence increases and i feel better... :D My motivation is that i think in my head, that there is no way im that stupid that i can't learn how to code. Plus in our world there are probably people who are not that smarter than me and they are working as programmers/web developers.
man, the content you upload is amazing, you might not have a lot of subs, but the quality of your vids is just beyond fantastic. I'm learning by my own and built my own portfolio, and was feeling a little bit down cuz i'm not getting a lot of interviews, but your vids keep me motivated. keep up the good work mate :) )
Thank you and Keep it up! The interviews will come, trust me. I felt the same way when I first started applying for jobs and no one called me back. Just learn as much as you can and keep building your portfolio, the jobs will come!
just want to second everything Imar has said. Well put. The small number of views makes it even more lucky to have discovered this content. Maybe it is hard to be objective but this content in terms of how you paint the low points and how you actually got through is way more motivational than a slick space invaders from scratch type video.
Wow! . . . I'm a beginning self-taught programmer learning HTML & CSS to start. . . I just discovered your channel today. . . You are giving such good advice. . . Thank you so much. . . I really appreciate your content. . . Thank you . . . Thank you . . . Thank you . . .
Just a friendly info, HTML and CSS are actually not technically programming languages; they're just page structure and style information. It's a good start for the basics but just know that they're *not* programming languages. Keep growing and thriving!
I resonate with the bouncing around so much. I've tried all of the popular languages, C# and C++, Python, HTML/CSS, and Java, but have never stuck with one. Once I moved to my new position in IT, I decided to buckle down and just sit with C#. My career path does not at all include programming languages, more so scripting languages, I just want to learn to maybe pivot at some point or just build web apps or websites for fun or for friends.
Thanks for all the motivation, I've been working hard trying to learn English to get a brighter future as an android developer and watching your videos help me to stay motivated and to practice my English at the same time
I have my old laptop which is big, heavy, heats and many issue are there So I am planning to buy a new laptop Is any laptop good for coding? Or we have to buy according to specs?
@@somessh7694 I have a video about this exact same question. ruclips.net/video/TFg2OxwiAgs/видео.html Let me know if you have any questions after watching it. I believe it covers a lot of what you just asked here.
Liked and subbed. Learned html and css in the wild then did JavaScript courses on free code camp and almost finished with the scrimba front end developer career path course. Planning on this summer being dedicated to interview prep, portfolio honing, and applying relentlessly.
Hi I'm 27 years old. I just started to code for about 2 weeks taking a path to a front-end web dev. I don't really have a solid background in this field since I took a teaching degree in college. So I'm good as a complete beginner. I really enjoyed coding and building stuff even though I'm really bad at it..well for now, I'm really happy I found your youtube channel at an early stage of coding and it really helps. Thank you so much! Hoping I get stay motivated. Best of luck to you bro! 😊😊
Hey man, thanks for the tips, the one about not allowing yourself to get stuck to much really resonated with me, somethimes you just think that you're suposed to know something, nice to see your point of view on that! Greeting from Brazil!
hi I'm just a nobody just started a month teaching my self html CSS and JavaScript with a help of a mentor of course. and as I browse RUclips I saw your vid. and watched, you are a very good person and very helpful... thank you very much for your advice gives me confidence at least I'm in the right path... and seriously I'm beginning to feel the same way you felt when you are teaching yourself to code... well I hope I can become a programmer or dev too... now I know that I should focus on bootstrap5 only and ignore other text editor and stick to practicing codes. also make it work first than to make it clean. I know I have a long way to run but then I have to keep Going to the finish line. thankyou again for your video it really helps me a lot.

This is gold. Thank you for sharing it! I am in the early stages of front end self-teaching road, doing and feeling exactly the way you describe. Liked and suscribed.
What’s amazing to me, is that every single tutorial or video trying to teach anything, always assumed that the viewer has some sort of IT background. This video doesn’t really apply so much, but gave me the thought. Everyone always assumes that you have some sort of computer background. And I’m not talking about being able to use a computer and troubleshoot simple issues, I’m talking about fluent with command line, networking, you name it.
I was trying to put a finger on it but....white man can't jump 2.0 is alive and well. having a good time watching your videos after just finding your channel thru search on coding starter. great energy and well thought information. your channel is a winner even if you can't make the shot; just keep trying and eventually you will -- attitude. Especially like the white man can't jump reference or at least what i call a reference about looking bad and winning vs looking good....many great points made in this list and felt like your lesson was lived. Great moves and look forward to more inspiration.
Spent several days on a hacking tutorial question trying to figure it out myself because i didn’t want to “cheat” only to discover that the module was not functioning correctly 🙄… wasn’t my fault at all. Never again.
I'm laughing at you saying you won't figure out the answer just looking at the screen. 😂😂 so true. I do that allot. My goodness! Thanks for the advice!!
I started with learning c then assembly then electronic and networking and operating systems I master these concepts But now I am confused in deciding between syber security or web dev
im currently in the grinding chefcode and leetcode questions phase. am I on the right track? ive been spending like 12 hours every day this month grinding questions.

Don't worry about stack overflow, the most that could happen is someone calling you a code child for using python as your first language, so bascially just your normal day in the internet.
