How I Learned to Code in 4 Months & Got a Job! (No CS Degree, No Bootcamp)

I want to tell you how I learned how to code from completely zero, completely on my own, in just four months, and I even got a job as a software engineer after that. I don't have a computer science degree; I didn't do a boot camp. In fact, I've never paid for any materials I've used to learn coding because, in this day and age, coding is a skill that you can learn for completely free on the internet. I am proof of that. In this video, I want to tell you how I did it.

Hey...really appreciate your insights on how to start and break in the industry...u earned a sub😊

It's really validating to recognize my same thought process and passion in what you're saying. I have literally said and felt the same way since I've started my journey. If I'm not taking a course or coding, I'm reading, researching, journaling/note-taking constantly. I love learning and like you said, the fact that there's always something to learn is soooo exciting to me and is what really got me along with the fact that it's so creative and satisfying to turn ideas into something useful. I've hopped around looking for things that will stick and feel fulfilling, but I lose interest in things that don't really evolve or continue to challenge me. Coding and programming was like a light bulb exploded in my brain. lol And the fact that I'm understanding it and enjoying it really just tickles my pickle cause I never thought it was possible honestly. lol Thanks for sharing! It's nice to share that feeling of connecting with a common interest.

Hey Danny! Love seeing your videos. Thanks for inspiring me. I'm heading down to Brazil for a few months in December with the fam. I'm working on figuring out the freelance web dev thing while finishing up my degree. I appreciate you taking the time to share your insights. Só tenho uma pergunta... Quando você vai fazer um vídeo em português? :) obrigado irmão!

I started this week! Gave myself 365 days & I’m excited to see how much I grow. It’ll be great if I get a job before those 365 days! Also, I like the idea of daily video logs & journaling.

you're amazing bro! thank you for keeping me motivated.

I love your vid Danny, and should I studying with the FCC website or the odin project is better as a beginner?

[sophiebarrie]

Hi Danny 👋😊 thank you very much for sharing your journey so far! Good advice about doing paid freelance projects and I have tried this avenue before. The only thing is, no one will choose me to develop their projects on freelancer or Fiverr as I haven't made anything for anyone there before. What would you suggest I do just to gain some interest at least? Should I do a few self initiated projects and showcase these there so others can see what I can do?

I ll try this course. I now about programming, but not about web dev.

[ASMRcode]

nice mate! I'm doing the odin project right now On day 68 now, but stuck with the tic tac toe project. Would be helpful to know what you did when you got stuck with projects, would you skip them, go forward and then come back to them later? THanks in advance mate

[crod]

Can you elaborate when you mentioned there are more jobs for software development than for software developers. Thanks!!

[ishjyotsingh]

How many hours did you study a day? Could you tell us what your schedule was like brother?

[Procomicartist]

Do you recommend we learn React.js from Odin Project Or React Beta Docs/Scrimba?
