The Reason I Might Buy Champagne and Celebrate
These are the raw confessions of the growing pains I experience as I learn software engineering. I am learning on my own but with lots of priceless resources online. You'll hear about these resources in my articles. Please pray for me!

How The News of AI Replacing Programmers Affected Me About 9 months to a year ago, I thought all the hard work I'd been doing was turning out to be a waste of time... The word on everyone's lips was,

How I Worked Through Fixing A JavaScript Problem in The CodeHS Curriculum
I am really feeling good right now! I am most certainly still a novice, but I am finally understanding how Javascript operates. I can not explain to you how clueless I was about coding! I was lost and the only thing I could do was pick away at my key...
I've got internet!
I haven't had real internet for 7 years! My mobile hotspot it officially retired and it's all because of coding.
No more waiting for pages to populate!
No more error messages because pages timed out!
No more looking at spinning circles on my monitor praying for a connect!
I feel very grateful!
I completed lesson 1, "The Cat Photo App." I thought I was moving at lighting fast speeds till I found K-dev!
He whipped through the entire project in 48 minutes and 32 seconds! I was one and half weeks in when I found his tutorials! That was a sobering reality check...
I completed lesson 2, "The Cafe Menu." This introduced me to basic CSS.
freeCodeCamp now has me crawling! I can do basic html actions, like making the links in this post! I also applied the target="_blank" action, which allows the link to open in another window.
I highly recommend K-dev's tutorials. He demonstrates every step of the freeCodeCamp projects, by actually going through the lesson and sharing his screen. I knew exactly how to find my coding errors when I got stuck! Thank you!
I have a certification coming up and I want a better understanding of html and css. Hence, I found the best explanation of html, in a 2 hour course for freeCodeCamp by Mike Dane.
His teaching was organized, easy to follow and helped me understand the correlation of html and what browsers display. Thanks for helping me!
I also read lots of helpful articles. I wish I was more mindful about saving the links.
I've got a lot to learn, but I am very proud of the progress I've made. Most importantly, the bit of conceptual understanding I've attained on basic html.
If you have a dream, believe in yourself and don't ever give up! If you feel stuck, keep going one more day.
