I’m also a mom in my 30s learning to code ☺️ After a little break, your video has me excited to jump back into 100devs. Leon and the community are awesome! I’m sorry to hear your daughter had to go to the hospital but glad she’s recovering! Those moments can be so hard and emotional. God is good 🙏🏼
Best advice I can give anyone watching as a self taught developer who changed careers late, make code and theory your obsession when you have the time to do it. Build your life around it, TH-cam videos, podcasts, small projects etc. Started my learning adventure when my daughter was born and it was tough but trust me you can do it. Blessings to all!
I’m also a mom in my 30s learning to code, looking for more stability and better income for my family, your video is such inspiration, and I am so excited to follow your journey. God bless you and your family.
I started after having my son and raising him a bit i think he was 3 when I started. Now I am a senior Javascript dev and iOS developer. I also take roles as a technical writer. Its possible but motivation is key and being okay with failure and starting over and over again.
Thank you so much for this encouragement!! That is so awesome and inspiring! I've been interested in iOS dev as well so I may look into that in the future. 💕
as someone who is 30 and just deciding to learn to code, this motivated me to get back to it. originally i gave up because its so hard and i dont 'need' to learn it, no more excuses!
Ok first of all you look adorable lol. Secondly, I admire the heck out of your energy levels and how much you get done with all you have going on. You're a badass.
Sorry to hear about your daughter's health issue scare. Yikes. I imagine you're relieved she's feeling better. Your javascript project looks fun and educational. You have so much going on! Best wishes for big success. I see what you mean about sometimes it looks as though there's less extra space around the card. When similar things happen to me I jump into Chrome or Firefox Dev Tools and look at the computed dimensions. I know that does help much to explain what's causing the behavior. Sometimes seeing the numbers and trying to work out in my head and understand the math helps keep me engaged in the process of trying to track down the cause. The explanation usually ends up making perfect sense after you know it. Wow. That's cool that you're working on simplifying and shortening your code. Looks tight and clean.
Thank God i found you and this community. I'm in my 30s too, learning Javascript at the moment. I started with HTML and CSS like 3 months ago, I'm at the point where java script is proving very challenging. This video is like a wake-up call for me to not lose hope and focus. Thanks for sharing your journey with us
Hi! I learned about 100 devs from you! Thank you for giving away the best kept secret for learning how to code for FREE. I'm currently paused on lecture 3 because Shay Howe is kicking my butt however I'm half way through it. Wishing you luck on your journey!
man its exciting to see people still learning to code. I recently gave up my 3 year learning journey. I did learn html css and js and built projects but I just couldn't find a job. There are so many frameworks and changing technologies one has to learn on top of js. Also its my strong opinion that in the next couple years web development jobs will be taken away by Ai. Now im considering options of getting my degree in computer science with a focus on Ai or jumping into cybersecurity. I'm not just not confident about web development being a thing or a career anymore sooner than later (as with many jobs really). Best of luck to you on your journey I wish you success on your journey!
I am on class 11 and a mom of 2 toddlers currently working on my homework and i am loving 100devs so far i should have been further along but I’m going at a slow pace to make sure i definitely understand what i am doing.
Go mom!! You got this! Pace yourself and know that everything is going to come in time. You are right where you need to be and will be an amazing engineer!!
This is dope to see I’m not the only one. In my 30’s as well, did a career switch to cyber and I’m learning C and Assembly to eventually learn exploit development and reverse engineering.
all the comments talking about I’m a mom with kids learning to code I definitely don’t fit the description 😂, but I’m a 20 year old man currently about 6 months into learning coding , and I’m really dedicating my all into it, I wanna be able to take care of my mom like she has done for me , I’ve been facing depression from studying every day not interacting with anyone, but I do hope it all pays off one day, and I can give her the life she deserves, and give my future kids the life I wish I had
I admire you for sticking with coding. I have a degree in programming and for the most part hate it, but I do sorta like being a SQL Developer. You should try it too.
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive I think it depends on the working environment but it can be done strictly remotely. A lot of tasks are done outside of business hours.
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive Hi, it's a fairly saturated market right now. It's an area that is done heavily in India and other countries and right now tech jobs are drying up there. This means that they are coming towards the western world for employment. But it's something that will always be needed and the law may change in the US and Canada to only allow so many of these jobs to be sent overseas. The companies do this because it is cheaper labour, but it's unfortunately leaving a lot of people without work. I work with one US company that is clearly lacking SQL employees to maintain their software so there is a need for them.

I enjoyed watching your video while cooking! I’m currently learning JavaScript as well through a program called open classroom and boy it’s hard. The project I’m working on requires a lot of attention to detail but I know the more I stick to it, JavaScript will be a very valuable skill to have. I pray you succeed in your journey and continue finishing what you’ve started. Also congrats on the little one🥹🩷 “The LORD shall increase you more and more, You and your children.

me finding css hard talkless of javascript ,i am scared 🙂 but the way u are motivative i am 16 years and i want to become a front end dev also looking forward in full stack
The cohorts aren't live. I'm watching the second cohort videos and going through those assignments. In a recent huddle, Leon did mention eventually wanting to do a 3rd cohort once he is done working on all the other things he has going on for the community right now!
Lmfao Man i should have jumped in when I had the chance I’m over here self taught learning c++, go and shit after already knowing JavaScript, docker and php for web dev. And c# and swift/objective c for desktop stuff Learning operating system internals, networking programming, Linux, CI/CD and shit Learning web penetration testing concepts like file inclusion, sql injection, web cache poisoning, white box pen test, code review, etc And she already had two jobs and didn’t know JavaScript 🤔🤦🏾♂️ Man I should have just started applying after building my first crud app way back wtf😢 I was slackin

so what did you that you think helped you get the jobs? Were you able to get internship without a CS degree?
as someone who is 30 and just deciding to learn to code, this motivated me to get back to it.

You got it girl!!!! 12 year software developer here. Let me know if you need to bounce any issues/idea around.
Keep up the great work ! I am the CTO of ENTITLED and I've seen great work from 100devs alumni's so far
Thank you so much!! Thats awesome!
I admire you so much! You're a mother and you're pregnant, but you still find time to code. I will be checking out more of your content 😊
Thank you so much!! It's def hard but I enjoy doing it 💕
This is dope to see I’m not the only one. In my 30’s as well, did a career switch to cyber and I’m learning C and Assembly to eventually learn exploit development and reverse engineering.
SO glad I found this channel!
So glad you're here!! Thank you!
i'm ALSO A GUY IN MY 30S WHO HAS JUST STARTED PROGRAMMING. IT'S DIFFICULT SINCE I'M WORKING ALONGSIDE. THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO.

You got this! This is one of the most awesome comments. I am very proud of you and I know your mom is too!! Keep going! 🤎
@@theminimaljess this actually means a lot, thank you jess
I admire you for sticking with coding. I have a degree in programming and for the most part hate it, but I do sorta like being a SQL Developer. You should try it too.
Thanks so much!! I’ve never looked into SQL development. I’ll check it out!
Are SQL dev jobs more hybrid than other ones like frontend, backend etc?
@@GoodByeSkyHarborLive I think it depends on the working environment but it can be done strictly remotely. A lot of tasks are done outside of business hours.
@@KMyer Thanks. Do you think an sql/back end developer positions are less saturated than the front end dev for entry level work?

Thats awesome! You got this!
me finding css hard talkless of javascript ,i am scared 🙂
but the way u are motivative

I am also learning about JavaScript.😃👍
Awesome! I hope it's going well for you! I like it so far!
Wow this is good, do you have linkedIn
Joining learning coding 😊
I love this
Thank you!! 💕💕
❤❤👈💃
God Bless you and your pregnancy 😊❤🙏
do you have a github?
they just need to throw away the whole Javascript language 😅
I hope python can somehow replace it in the future
🤣 Python looks a lot more readable and user friendly lol
100 devs is still doing bootcamps?

How the fuck did you get 2 dev jobs without knowing javascript lol. The industry was a joke. Glad it's returning to where it should be
Lmfao Man i should have jumped in when I had the chance
I’m over here self taught learning c++, go and shit after already knowing JavaScript, docker and php for web dev. And c# and swift/objective c for desktop stuff
Learning operating system internals, networking programming, Linux, CI/CD and shit
Learning web penetration testing concepts like file inclusion, sql injection, web cache poisoning, white box pen test, code review, etc
And she already had two jobs and didn’t know JavaScript 🤔🤦🏾♂️
Man I should have just started applying after building my first crud app way back wtf😢 I was slackin
@@Feedback406 how long did it take to make your first crud app versus all that other stuff?
Hi
Hey
