Goal

Make you incredibly solid at building and deploying Web apps.

Avoid the spikes

1. We will go slow, first only focussing on HTML/CSS/JS
2. Any topic that you feel is missing / you want we will repeat the class.
3. Go slow but stay consistent, avoid the spikes

What would I do if I was you?

1. Build Your Online Presence

   • Create a LinkedIn Account: This is your professional portfolio. Share your projects, write about your learning journey, and connect with other developers. Having an active LinkedIn profile will help you stand out when applying for jobs and internships.
   • Create a Twitter Account: Engage with the tech community by sharing insights, challenges, and solutions. Follow industry leaders and contribute to discussions to build your network. or
   • Create a Blue Sky Account: https://bsky.app/

2. Share Your Work

   • Showcase your DSA problem solutions, personal projects, and learning experiences. Whether it’s on GitHub, LinkedIn, or Twitter, make sure others can see what you’re doing. This will help you build credibility and attract opportunities.

3. Stay Focused on Opportunities Like GSoC (Google Summer of Code)

   • GSoC is one of the best internships you can pursue as a student. Start preparing early since competition is tough. Contribute to open-source projects, learn how to write good code, and understand the community behind these projects.
   • Preparation Tip: Watch this video for tips on how to prepare: GSoC Preparation.

4. Connect with Developers and Build Relationships

   • Join developer communities on platforms like Discord. Try to find a small group of 3-4 motivated people who will keep you accountable and help you grow.

5. Keep Reading and Learning About Remote Jobs and the MERN Stack

   • Stay informed about trends in remote MERN stack jobs by reading articles, following relevant blogs, and staying connected to developers who have made it in the field.

6. Participate in Hackathons and Projects

   • If you feel that the pace of the class is too slow for you, take on additional challenges by:
     • Joining hackathons: These give you real-world experience and a chance to showcase your skills.
     • Participating in open-source projects: These can improve your coding abilities and build your portfolio.
