    One thing about learning how to code is that having a mentor and teammates can go a long way.
    Having done projects both on my own and within a team, I can say that having people help each other can really accelerate both the learning and the development process.
    Sometimes I'd get stuck for hours on some really simple thing, and just having had another pair of eyes look at the problem could have saved me those hours of frustration.
    The reality as a junior dev is that you will eventually get stuck on things / bugs that you'll spend a lot of time trying to fix them.
    I was just curious how you'd go about finding teammates, or if you don't think that's something that's really required as a Shopify developer in particular?
    Thanks a lot for the video and for taking the time to read this ^^

    Any other courses you would recommend to become a Shopify dev? The Freemote option is really expensive. What other options.wpukd you recommend?

    • @CodingWithJan
      @CodingWithJan  ปีที่แล้ว

      Strongly disagree. :-)
      With our new pricing, we really tried making the program as accessible as possible and I think for what you get it's actually a steal. To just name a few things: coding modules, code reviews (direct feedback from people working in the tech industry), live calls where you can ask questions (e.g. one hosted by Taylor who's making 6 figures / y freelancing as a Shopify dev), advice from an expert we brought in like Patrick (7-figure agency owner) who also shared his agency templates, proposals, call guidelines, or Evan ($1.7m in earnings on Upwork) who shared his advice in terms of how to stand out, land jobs, get great reviews, a network of like-minded people, support when you're stuck on projects or have questions, and much more.
      That being said, there are also other great programming courses out there for sure. HTML / CSS courses for example could be a great place to start. The problem here though is they usually lack the direct feedback component and they mainly focus on the technical side of things. (not sales and marketing, which is equally as important as a freelancer, if you want to earn a living). Beyond that, I'd also recommend the free videos on my and Aarons' channel if you're interested in specific topics.
      So I think it's just important to understand, that learning these skills is going to cost you something.
      It's either going to be money or a longer time to see results.
      Hope that's still helpful and explains it a little bit. :-)

      Hey my friend :-)
      So Freemote is designed to teach from the ground up.
      Beyond that you might find the video on this channel helpful.
      Chris the Freelancer and Weeklyhow also have great videos.
      Shopify Documentation definitely helps, if you don't have a problem with text based resources.

      @@CodingWithJan thanks for the quick response! Yesterday was my first day of doing research on being a software engineer so I’m still trying to get a better understanding of the industry as whole. I know that sounds flakey but so far you’re approach makes the most sense for a beginner as it has a direct focus on a specific niche. I’m putting together a game plan/timeline today as to when to take action in studying some free resources and then signing up for a course/boot camp. If I could spend a week studying some free resources it would really help with my confidence in signing up. I’ll check out the resources you recommended but if you can think of any other good prerequisites to the boot camp let me know!

    I'm stuck at one point in shopify. It would be great to help me.
    I need a warehouse location on email template for the admin confirmation email.
    Do you have any idea?

    • @CodingWithJan
      @CodingWithJan  ปีที่แล้ว

      Difficult one. Would need to test this myself, but here's a quick idea:
      1. The template you're looking for is "New order notifications".
      2. I'll quote this from the docs:
      If you have more than one active location, then you need to specify how to fulfill online orders. There are several ways to set up your locations for fulfilling orders:
      - If you want all items for online orders to fulfill from a single location, then you need to make that your default location and prevent other locations from fulfilling online orders
      - If you want items for online orders to fulfill from a primary location, and fulfill from other locations if the product isn't in stock at the primary location, then you can set locations for order fulfillment priority. Make sure each location that you want to fulfill from has Fulfill online orders from this location selected.
      - If you want to customize which location fulfills orders based on location and products, then you can activate multi-origin shipping to use shipping profiles.
      - If you're using a dropshipping app or fulfillment service to fulfill all of your orders, then you don't need to make any changes to your locations or the default location. The default address of your store is set as your default location. Your default address isn't used by the dropshipping app or fulfillment service, and isn't shown to your customers.
      3. If you have defined the priority the right store location should be set automatically. Now the last question would be, how you can dynamically add the correct location to the email template.
      My best guess would be the liquid object "shop" .
      Maybe properties like
      ---> {{shop.address}}
      If you're lucky this will return the correct value right off the gate.
      Hope this helps and good luck. :-)

    because increasing hourly rate from (25-35) to (100) is not only about finding better clients, we should learn more advanced topics I believe

    • @CodingWithJan
      @CodingWithJan  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes you're right, jumping straight from 35 to 100 is a bit weird (if your previous pricing is publicly visible like on Upwork)
      However, after getting a few 5-star reviews at 35/h you could easily raise to 40-45. (Just raise by 20-30%, every few good reviews, and make sure pricing is consistently increasing (not randomly jumping back down again))
      If your previous pricing is not publicly visible it's even easier. Just keep working with the clients that you currently have to sustain yourself and set yourself a limit to only accept new clients at the new rate you want to hit. :-)
