    This was really useful. I'm getting into software engineering too, and I've always wondered what the work is actually going to be like when I get a job. This cleared things a lot!
    Also, I love your channel. Being a girl in tech, it's not always easy to find inspiration out there but you are out here breaking all stereotypes and I absolutely love that.
    Watching you, makes me want to work on myself and to get better every day!

Tonight I started with the basic, HTML/CSS and a little bit with JavaScript, I see so many opportunity job and most of them they ask for many skills that you need to be able to use and even if you are looking for an intership you need to have experiencie in your area, that's insane.
