    I'm at 3:50 in the video and it's already awesome!
    Quick tips for those who want them (I'm an university student in IT) for comparing different "hello worlds":
    -Beginner Level-
    -> Hello World == print("Hello World")
    -Intermediate Level-
    -> Hello World == create some program that does stuff for you to simplify your daily tasks (aka math problems solvers, auto-generate stuff for you to use, sort things from a file etc.)
    -Advanced Level-
    -> Hello World == you'll get to easily create a (kinda) complete API in about 3 hours and connect it to a front-end (that is somehow complex) to show data from a local/public database.
    It's about the point of view . So just don't give up cuz you're watching peeps online coding from zero an e-shop with a SQL database and other complex stuff. That's easy for them cuz they do it on daily basis. Perhaps now it's easy for you to automate any task that you need to do (aka intermediate level) and you wanna go to the upper tier. Well just be patient and don't give up (maybe others are looking at you like you're a god because they just got started, as you are looking at others and think they are gods because they are above you) .
    Be patient , have fun and subscribe to ForrestKnight cuz damn he's a god in programming xD ;)

      Idk how you've done with this lately but the middle section is where you're gonna learn the most. Using different APIs to grab and manipulate data is key. Very rarely will you be able to utilize the 3rd one cause most structures are already built and you're manipulating it (unless you're starting from absolute scratch which is very time consuming)

    I remembered that several years i go i tried learning java from a book. I remember how o copied the code exactly from the book for a hellos world program and the program didn't work xD. After sever tries, the same code worked after restarting the ide. Definitely a bummer... I continued to learn from the book and stoped after a couple of days. But i did start again thanks to the courses i started. At the moment I'm last year school, then I'll go for an internship at an IT company. I want to start as a QA tester(from my courses), then after a couple of years to switch to back end dev. I'm not a creative person, so look for ideas to code like in this video. Thank you, it stopped my break from programming. My current project is modpack for Minecraft and i use js to modify recepies.

  • @wyalves

    Another useful tip is to make these projects in different programming languages, so besides improving your overall software development skills, you can also learn new languages in a more practical and less boring way.

      And if you're trying to understand a new language I've found that the most fun way is to read the specification or standards document, if one exists, and implement a compiler for it. It's also fun to write a BF interpreter if you want the easier route for trying to understand a new language. If you don't know it already, it's an esoteric language which I have to censor here, BrainF***.

    • @bkucenski
      @bkucenski 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's hard to say how useful language diversity it. You can make a lot of money in one main language. I make all my money in PHP.
      I've also used QuickBASIC, C++, C#, Perl, Java, and JavaScript. If you need or want to learn a new language, I found that recreating projects worked well. I had things I made in BASIC that I redid in C++. One of my projects years ago started with Wolf5K in JavaScript and went to Java, C++ and finally C# where I had bump mapping, depth mapping, real-time lighting, a web-site to create maps and upload resources that the C# game would download, etc. It was a little nuts.
      The bigger and more meaningful the project is to you, the more you'll learn as you spend more time on it. Most languages I learned by doing game programming. PHP I learned for strictly web-sites. I have my own big projects that have been in development for 10 years. One of them I wrote in PHP, then converted to C# and then converted back to PHP. You just need to figure out what projects are interesting to you and then focus on the language that's most appropriate for those projects.

    So i am in my 3rd year of my CS University for my Bachelor's Degree
    -Beginner Level- Hello World
    -Beginner Level- different equation calculators, auto generated stuff, writing and reading from files etc
    -Intermediate Level- Weather web app, using publicly available APIs
    Advanced Level Close to full stack application made as a sort of course check for both students and professors. Displays courses and grades for both, but professors can grade students directly from it.
    I still have a lot to learn, but i am happy to find out a lot of the things i did during my studies closely match the progress of what i need to get a job. Thanks.

      My understanding is that a Content Management System (CMS) is a tool that helps you to easily manage content (text, image, video) on a website without coding. An example of a CMS is Wordpress.
      If you look up "What is a content management system", you will probably find what you are looking for.

      Just look at some of your older projects that you have forgot how the code works for them and see if you can figure out how it works again and if so, how long it takes you. If you can't figure it out, see what is confusing you: is it a lack of helpful comments, bad naming, bad structure of code, etc. And then try to work on those areas next time you code.
