How to get into Software Engineering with a Computer Science degree: Learn everything they teach in a Computer Science major, but without going to school.
Near fatal construction accident; now partially handicapped. Month 9 of learning javascript at 50 years old. I took last week off to play with my (crayons) CSS an HTML... holy dog-balls Batman; ... at this rate, I'm looking at a job around 2025. Thank You for the video! I'm going to watch it over and over for tips.
Love that you don't say "how to do it quick", if you want to be good at something without any background, one year of consistent learning is the bare minimum! And yes, build a portfolio website and send it around, in that case, you will have pressure to update and make it not suck!
@@CodingWithLewis sorry,this isnt disrespect you but i just asking and i wonder??why?? I dont event see your trully teaching playlist in youtube or udemy??like stephen grider,Brad traversy,Jhon Smilga or other famous instructure so what kind of expert software engineer are you (Lewis)??
I did a computer science degree 20 years ago, worked as a web developer for a couple of years, but then ended up working in a totally different industry. Since the AI revolution kicked off, I've been learning to code again and have done a load of Python courses. Coding is so much easier now thanks to improved text editors and libraries for doing pretty much anything. I'm doing courses in FastAPI, Machine Learning, and LangChain at the moment and really enjoying it. It will take me another 6 months or so before I would feel confident to apply for jobs I think. This video is great. Very encouraging. Everybody should learn to code, I think it's good for the brain. I love the way you are constantly learning and how impossibly confusing things eventually start to make sense.
With all the things you do, all the effort you put in your videos and all the time you put in each single animated video to help us. All i could say is thank you and congrats for your 400k subs!
Getting hired and experience is probably the hardest part. I initially got some projects on Upwork, but didn't get anything for last 3months. Now, Learning a bit on low level, got very few interviews coming up. Also will try out the open source contribution route, it actually worked for some of my peers. Thanks for sharing the resources for interview prep and CS fundamentals.✨
I am so glad that i have found your video Lewis. Most practical and realistic expectations diving into this field. You answered most of my reasons to procrastinate and my delving in analysis paralysis. Trust me, i stopped at your video. From a playlist of many "in-depths", "hows" and "whys", yours should be the last one i buy time to finally start working. Time to act on this. I have roughly started with few of the available sources to study. I can clearly see my plan now One big takeaway is that, the webpage (portfolio) is the diary moving forward. This keeps you on track. Big thanks Lewis, my man!
Hey, there! Thank you for this video! I can’t afford a 4 year institution and I’m definitely glad I’m into programming and that I can do it without a degree.
I'm gonna help you guys save some money. Don't get into bootcamp. There are free courses out there. If you feel you don't have the discipline to follow tutorials then working on fixing the discipline aspect in your life first. Another HUGE thing which is missed in this video is networking. Get in touch with the right people in software industry. You need someone in the company to root for you so that you land your first job. All the best!
Nice video. I've seen several roadmaps like this, but all of them lack or left for the end a genuine "Zero" section. I'd recommend first learning how to use a PC. It might sound trivial, but it's invaluable to know how to properly use and configure your OS (Windows, Linux, or whatever you choose), both in the UI and the CLI. I'd even suggest familiarizing yourself with the components of a PC and understanding how they interact. While you can learn these things along the way, knowing them beforehand will greatly benefit you when you start learning to program.
25 years ago companies were hiring people if they show interest in learning how to program and would teach them on the job. These days, you have to hit the ground running and then some! You have to prove that you know what you say you know with 3+ professional references in the field! If you’re starting out new, you have to put all your heart, mite, and soul into it. You cannot be lukewarm in the least to get that first job as a developer!

Recap by Tammy AI
I would do your laundry and dishes for a year to get a comprehensive version of this video in course form doing a deep dive on each of these 11 topics. I mean, maybe not your laundry, but my fiancé taught me how to cook amazing authentic Mexican food. Like tamales?
Hey, I'm Yuusuf and 20 years old. I’m interested in becoming a self-taught web developer, and I would like to meet serious people who want to connect so we could make a study group and make a plan together. If you are interested, let me know.
I always wanted to be an IT Engineer/Computer Engineer but ive been accepted into an Education program that i could become an engineer but the math is so freaking hard, so now i abandoned that dream :(
I know it’s mentioned in the video but I highly recommend to begin coding with python. Personally I started on C then Java script and then python. In hindsight I wish I had begun with python as it’s slightly easier to get a grasp on the main concepts used in every language. It’s much more beginner friendly but also used later in the game and more popular now as well.
Well if you done that that means you now have a 9 - 5 work and need to keep your webpage intact manage your community and then learn new things all the time equals almost no free time. For a job where you only make around 45 - 60 thousand € (if you live in the EU). Better aim for making your own company then the amount of work you have putting in is justified
love the vids, but quick question, how do u code it in python and make the interface in flutterflow, and it all just works together, how does that work?
I mean, I do have a CS50x certificate now.... and I do have a work in progress portfolio (Which was also a project I made for that course) my difficulty really was figuring out the next steps. (Also yes, I know a portfolio is always "work in progress" as you're constantly updating it, but I mean that in the sense that I can't even deploy this thing online yet as it's missing some pretty important stuff still. It shouldn't take long to finish it tho.)
I hate when someone says start with js and Python i would say start with java,assembly or c , then switch to the above as the java will force you to tell exactly what you want the computer to do and they don't hide the Woking in syntactical sugar coated syntax
@@sahil1307because it worked for you and not the thousands of people who start with a difficult language and then quit, versus a simpler to learn language like Python or JS, everyone sucks but you. Is that what you're trying to say? This comes off as pure trolling.
Why did this trend start? It's totally unfair to those who spend four years of their life and money to earn a degree. No one can practice on their own and become a doctor or engineer. Please don't undervalue the importance of a computer science degree. I completely discourage these kinds of approaches. I still remember what we went through during our degree.

Hi Lewis I am studying BS E-commerce it is combination of Business and CS I have alot of interest in cyber security can I get into cyber sec with E-commerce degree and is it possible to pursue Masters degree in cyber security after BS E-commerce I am confused plz help
Hey bro I like your videos i have a question about career i am starting new career like a development i choose two domain iOS and backend which one is good i like iOS but there is problem you need mac please give suggestion thanks.
Sorry, but I've always wanted to know if the framework you use in js for a website matters too much, I understand that some are faster than others, but I feel like there are times where speed doesnt matter.
@@Carlos-Saldana seems RUclips ate my response. Truly, it's both. The value does not match the quality. Freecodecamp on the other hand vastly exceeds expectations of quality
Bro,,he makes money by that.If you were a RUclipsr you would do this also....Btw he is giving us those valuable information for free..so its worth watching sponsors.
Classic BS video JavaScript 😂😂😂😂😂 I'm working for years in web development industry. Didn't use even one single line in js in my life and will never will. You can make 3D looking pages with CSS this days. Full visual games and animations without js. But everyone is just copying each other videos and are js fanboys 😂😂😂😂
lol why do all these "self taught" programmers make videos "how to get a job" if they need to run a you tube channel only talking about everything? Right, because they dont get a job with their "skills". Its the same in every niche...Why would successful people stop being successful and earning a lot while they do what they love ? Right...Because its not true. Wake up guys..stop following such people , you make these "videos" possible und you will still watch the 54th episode of "how it is soooo easy...i show you" without any change to your lives. these videos are most of the time just copied from others. Maybe even chatgpt wrote that video script...Try it out and see what AI comes up with

Nice video. I've seen several roadmaps like this, but all of them lack or left for the end a genuine "Zero" section. I'd recommend first learning how to use a PC.

Very important! Thanks for noting. The fact that basic computer understanding is "Zero" is a privilege in itself.
25 years ago companies were hiring people if they show interest in learning how to program and would teach them on the job. These days, you have to hit the ground running and then some! You have to prove that you know what you say you know with 3+ professional references in the field!
If you’re starting out new, you have to put all your heart, mite, and soul into it. You cannot be lukewarm in the least to get that first job as a developer!
