Maybe this is kinda random, but hasn’t anybody else been loving the Codecademy course catalog recently? Like, the two new beta courses: API Development with Swagger and OpenAPI, and Software Design Principles. I was literally just reading about those two things in a book I’m reading
Idk I just find it so cool how everything came in perfect timing lol. Has that ever happened to anyone?
Also, I hadn’t checked the back-end career path in a while, and now there are tons of new things there that are reaaaally helping me out to understand topics that I was not understanding by just reading my book lol.
And like, everything is making sense now? And for some reason I’ve been enjoying the Codecademy content a lot more recently…I never thought I would love coding this much XD
anyone else feeling this way or is it just me?
don’t mind me I’ll go back to happily learn…hopefully you do too
I kinda agree with you on this. I have been enjoying coding more than ever but not because of the new courses and stuff. When I first started back in January 2020 I chose to learn Javascript just because I hear about it a lot not because I thought it would be useful. But nowadays before I start learning a language I learn what it’s used for and think if I will use it. Now because of that and that I see how my work is improving over time from very simple HTML-only sites to semi-complex websites using HTML and CSS. Also when I am doing courses I see my work progressing.
Yea seeing yourself progress is a huge motivator. And one other thing is that I can now make professional-looking websites compared to just 2 and half months ago I could only code basic HTML only websites. And soon I am going to make a public website to show my work and to see how well I can code websites.
Oh that sounds really exciting, I can’t wait to see your website when it’s done!
I should try making a small public project for others to see, but I’m kinda low on original ideas lately
