“Knowing Is Not Enough; We Must Apply. Wishing Is Not Enough; We Must Do.”- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe |
Learning web development |
Web Development is a vast and dynamic field. it can be quite confusing and over whelming. To become a web-developer the knowledge of Front-end and Back-end is very important as it is a package of various programming language.
As a beginner, you might be wondering which area of web development to choose. This Blog, summarises and states few tips on how to become a web developer. The first and the fore-most thing which is the stepping block of web development is to master the Front-End Development.
Front-End Development Skills:
When starting out in front-end, you might be confused and lost about where to start. There are innumerable options available not only programming language-wise, but regarding tools, frameworks, and technologies as well.
So, you must be well prepared to dive into an ocean.
"Front-End Development is like an ocean. You happen to have a ship, but no map. First learn the shallow water then go deep."
Tip-1: Learn the structure of Front-End -HTML
There is no shortcut you must learn HTMl. Why? Because its the basic body matter. A body cannot move without a structure so HTML provides structure. You can enroll yourself in online tutorial of Treehouse, Udacity and even download Tutorial of TheNetNinja and WesBos or Udemy.
Tip-2: Learn the skeleton of Front-End-CSS
A body without bones will not be of much use.CSS provides the skeleton and looks to HTML. CSS provides the lovely clothes to it.Styling beautifies your work and that can only be done with CSS. You can learn about styling from W3Schools and CSSTricks.
Styling |
It is known that when you play, you learn. Playing around with the small(UI) elements is one thing but building a website from scratch is different. At some point of time, you have to learn about JavaScript, so that you are able to store information.
Challenge yourself by building your first responsive elements.
"There's only one way to becoming better at what you're doing:Keep learning, Keep Creating."
Build things a hundred times until you have mastered it even if it makes you dirty your codes.
Tip-4: Read, Read, Read and Go On Reading
Your reading skills greatly influence your path to become a great front-and developer. Read as many books, articles,guides and manuals on Programming and Development.
"Combine skills with good book and you can boast your programming game very quickly."
Dedication |
Tip-5: Know your Tools well
When your journey begins with front-end development, you will require to decide on your toolkit. Great tools help enhance and automate your front-end development workflow.
At some point you have to master frameworks like node,npm and many more excellent tools to facilitate your daily work.
Tip-6: Never Rush
Along the way, you will many a times question yourself about why you selected development and may want to just stop. If you're at the edge, then I have only one suggestion.
"The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be."
Do.Not.Give.Up
If you get stuck, then do't be afraid to ask questions. You will always find a helping hand as everyone goes through this phase.
Tip-7: Get involved with open-source project.
You can contribute to Github and FOSS. Don't bind yourself in a box as even the experienced programmers commit errors. Getting involved with Projects, especially open-source, will make you a better front-end developer, but it will also help you build up your very own brand as an experienced developer.
Wrapping it Up.
The path to becoming a front-end developer will definitely take sometime. Becoming a front-end developer is not only about learning frameworks and programming languages. It's about creativity,interaction and responsibility.
This Blog is just a lift-up to enable you to understand about the field of web-development. At the end of he day, your hard-work and dedication is the key to becoming a successful web-developer. Enjoy Coding!
