I got a question, i am learning python, I explored web and app dev, dosen't ring me. Now, I know a lot of concepts around OOP, and I have completed the basics of python. Should I learn libraries OR Build a project, cuz I feel like my knowledge around python is not enough to make a project.

HELP ME OUT HERE, GUYS: Is laptop with i7 "3rd gen." processor, 16gb RAM, 500gb SSD enougth for studying or pursuing: a) Blockchain Dev or b) AI Dev or c) Both?
1st choose language randomly(popular one) 2nd start coding then error message then fix it over and over again until you become good at it 3rd start making a project(start small) additional)learn logic gates and how computer works in lower level to understand more
This is so inspiring brother Lewis, as a teenager who come from a third world country, and my dream is really to be involved in the tech industry like software development and tech startups, I saved some money for me to buy a laptop I bought it and in a year it died while I knew python and Django till now I have no laptop and I'm saving to do so. Hope I will overcome that, and you really inspired me into tech as you provide more information
I think everyone hits a low point and it's very important not to give up in those situations. There will be hurdles and sometimes you have to do tasks that you don't like so much. But the most important thing is to never give up and hang in there. Great video! I really enjoyed it.
Thank you, Lewis, for sharing your journey! It's inspiring how you reflected on your experiences and had the courage to make a leap forward when needed. I truly admire you! My own web development journey began when I saw the need to create a simple tool for myself. I was amazed at how quickly and easily I could deploy it. From there, I started freelancing and helping others solve their tech problems, eventually building products. It's incredible to see the value that technology brings and how it can benefit others. Keep up the great work, Lewis!
I’m 15, I’ve recently took on two freelance jobs for web development. A gym website for my school and a booking management site for a local community centre. I worked on the gym site so much that I honestly couldn’t take it. I was working on it 4-10 hours per day (still with 6 hours of school) and after a few weeks I was just stressed out of my mind. So then I moved on to this bookings site, this though is a paid job unlike the voluntary gym site. I’ve gave myself 1 month to get everything sorted. So far it’s going good; I’ve worked about 40-50 hours but it’s coming out really nice, I’m about two weeks in. I’ve setup a good database and backup solution and it’s nearly ready for launch. I’m just not quite sure if I should keep going with these or live my life a little. I’ve not been thinking about the gym one and it’s been nice, but it’s still at the back of my mind every day. Both are still overwhelming me quite a lot. I’ve been loving your videos they’ve been really inspiring. Thank you Lewis
I have Got in Coding in recent years. I love Game Dev and Web Development. It is like how a little peace of code can manipulate your art in such a way that People Like it.
Wow this is such a cool story. First program i ever wrote was a little Windows console program that emulated a vending machine. Thats been 7 years ago! But my journey is constantly progressing and even though some may think that im "Hero" level, the road ahead of me looks longer than I ever thought. Love the video. Thanks for sharing your story.
This video is very inspirational and supportive. It's amazing to see that you went from making a Roblox door behave in a certain way to building software to help with Covid-19! Really shows anyone can be a coder.
I will say that this is also my story, but it is a little different, so at 12-13 yr old i started studying html, css and js and proggress was insane, and after 2022-2023 i desided to teach more programing like lua, python etc... so now im 14 yr old that know almot 9 programing languages
I've always loved to see how things work inside and design my own things. At some point I decided I wanna make a game, I looked up and downloaded unity and made my first code, from there I changed the code and from there history was made and set for me. I started python, ambition to help others, cool projects and now when I look back I can see I sucked at writing good python code, but it's what got me to where I am now, building a top security focused website for a friend of my mom at 17 years old I am proud to have this gifted mindset of a developer
i started learning to code at the age of 16 at my high school. i am actually enjoying. i may get a lot of challenges and hurdles in learning that but i will never quit it. you are inspiring many of us. Thanks Lewis Bro.
bro, thanx for this video. I am in the same boat at the moment. My present job is not enough challenging and I need to become a code wizard to spice up my work life again. Once more thank you! now i know what to do.
Juste in time to boost my confidence.. I'm in my first year of studying Web dev and hoping to become a game dev later on the lines and after my first internship only doing some WordPress (I hate it) and some hard true reflection from my employer saying I'm not fit for the job and don't do enough.. it help a lot to know I'm not the only one to have a hard time!
@@CodingWithLewis thanks it help a lot. You're doing a amazing work making vidéo for dev and novice alike acrosse the world !! love you're video! (and sorry i'm a french man my english is very basic )
i experienced burnout when programming as a job as opposed to programming in my free time. now that i do it at own will and freely it is much more fun and less exhausting
This is almost exactly my story 😅 except I don't have friends so I don't have friends in code or a career as a developer yet. I feel like I'm just not there
I Also Started My Coding Journey With Roblox.... When I Was 7 Or In Grade 1 (2015) My Friend Introduced Me To Roblox | After A While, I Also Wanted Robux To Help Myself But My Mom Refused ( I Am From Pakistan BTW ) So I Started Making Roblox Games (Horrible Ones) But Started Scripting Them Too Though I Only Earned 56 Robux, I Had Planted The Seed For My Life
So i decided my future job which is a software engineer, Im gonna start programing, Im 15 rn and im gonna work abroad for higher salary so i can support my family.
I started wit an age of 14 I think. My first "programs" where some cmd batch scriptes to calculate the area of squares. I switched to VB soon after. Then I switched to dotnet while doing an apprenticeship as an system administrator, nobody wanted to offer me a coding job. I switched to a PHP startup 3 years after finishing my apprenticeship, the firma got bought and I work as a java developer now. My projects at home are all still written in dotnet and I do want to do this as a daily work, still trying to achieve that.
Heh, interesting... For me WordPress had the opposite effect. Because WordPress has certain limitations and such... I learn myself PHP to code it myself. Same with PowerShell. Edit: not throwing stones at anyone here. Everybody is unique and has a story. Mine is quite different here. I mainly rolled into coding because I wanted to simplify things for my coworkers of the admin office at the schools I work for. And it all started with WordPress actually.
Hey, I looked at the description but couldn't find the Discord link. It would be great if you could pin the link in the comments or edit the description to include the link. Thanks for the video, I'm sure it's helping lots of developers on their journey towards their own potential.
Hey Lewis, I'm also a software developer looking to inspire and teach others coding. Can you give me some tips / feedbacks please ? thanks in advance really appreciate it.
If it's making videos. The first 3 months focusing on getting a video out every week. Make every video better than your last. Be vulnerable and open to mistakes/criticism. No matter what, there are going to be people that will say horrible things about you (took me a while to accept this). By inspiring and learning yourself, you will do it for others!
Like you mentioned in the video you got a project converting excel files to xmls. My question is how do you quote a project you don't know about (how to do that) and do you include your learning in the project quote? both time and money wise.
Great question. Honestly it depends. Every project will require some research no matter what skill level you are. However, with me at the time, there was a risk to the client that I might've not been able to do it. So I looked up standard rates and thought, what amount of money am I comfortable with if it took me say 2 months. Pricing services is a DEEP conversation.
Hey bro, I have an ipad that has device management on it it can only be unlocked with my work email. The problem is I stopped working for that company a while ago and they didn't take the ipad.

Hi, I have a problem with deleting a lot of emails, because I can only delete a certain number of them at a time. I had this idea of programming with Visual Basic 5 to have a program repetitively make the mouse clicks needed to delete those emails systematically. I tried to do this, but I could not figure out how to set my mouse clicking focus outside of the VB5 forms or specifically on the webpages that the emails shown on. Is there commercial software out there that can allow me to set my mouse clicks on whatever points on the screen that I want to have clicked in order to get the deletion of the emails done systematically. I also need to set up a pause for each page of deletion to account for the waiting time needed to wait for the next moment that allows me to delete the next page of emails. Thank you in advance.

"Burnout is not just being tired of coding. It's a deep exhaustion that seeped into every aspect of my life" Oh I know how this is, I remember getting burned out multiple times. And one day I asked on r/learnprogramming how to deal with it, and they all agreed on the solution.... TAKE A BREAK! A few weeks after doing just that, I was able to code again after I got interested in OpenGL. Now I'm about to finish Harvard's CS50x Course, but the final projects are rather chunky and I was practically working non-stop in that course since February I belive? So yeah... I decided to take another 2 week break before going back to it. Well, there was that guy who said bullshit like "Just keep working, you're not a car to be burnt out" or something like that... completely not understanding how any of this thing works. And considering his advice contradicted what LITERALLY THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY ON THAT THREAD TOLD ME TO DO... I didn't take it and just took a rest instead. (Also the fact that he quoted Andrew Tate of all people was just another cherry on top for me to not take his advice seriously.... thank god I didn't take it seriously.) But yeah, if you're burnt out, THEN YOU NEED TO TAKE A BREAK! there is no other cure for that. If you insist on forcing yourself to code trough burnout you'll only reach a point where you're literally incapable of even opening your code editor, let alone actually write code.
@@CodingWithLewis I feel like my reply didn't get posted for some reason... oh well. But yeah, I'm so happy, my next project will involve using SQL, Python with Flask, HTML/CSS/Javascript, etc... so as you can see, a pretty big project... and it's not even the final one yet. For the final one, I was considering using PySimpleGUI to make a TO-DO app using SQL to store the data. (And also so I can have yet another excuse to use SQL.) I do find it scary that somehow the chapters in C were more enjoyable than the ones where I get to use higher level languages like Python and JavaScript, but I feel this is more to do with the scope of the later projects, than the actual languages themselves.
Hi Lewis! I wanted to ask you a quick question. Is it really necessary to have a Computer Science degree in order to get started as a Junior Developer? (I'm pivoting towards Python Development, but also have done a few Front-End projects). I have a degree in Economics and I was hoping that this coupled with personal projects would be sufficient to become a developer (would love to do CS but unfortunately I'm in no position to go back to collage right now)
Having a degree is for sure an advantage. However, there is lots of people who don't go in for a degree. Try starting small like I did and slowly climb the ranks by learning something new (rather than jumping into a full on SWE job)
I was very vulnerable in today's video. A reminder: It's ok to feel overwhelmed, burnt out and uninterested in code at times.

Having a degree is for sure an advantage. However, there is lots of people who don't go in for a degree. Try starting small like I did and slowly climb the ranks by learning something new (rather than jumping into a full on SWE job)
