I've done side projects, several internships and now I'm a Software Engineer at a tech company. The first steps might be hard and overwhelming, even worse if you didn't learn to code early as many kids do now. I'll be sharing some pieces of advice ...

The advice about Git is spot on. It's the foundation of your tech stack.

It's Really Inspired and it's hoping me a lot👌

Well definitive and descriptive. Really enjoyed it.

Don't rush is one of the very important tips 😌.

Slow down, take a step back to get a picture of your code. Please ask if you don't know the correct answer. Don't make assumptions.

Slow down to get faster, don't move fast break things.

Clearly one of the best junior advices and motivational article I ever read. Thank you for that

Hi I'm a young Web designer who is focusing to become a fullstalk, I'm actually facing difficulities because I have no Opportunity to afford buying a new Laptop or Macbook which have a powerful proccessor. I'm sorry for saying these kind of words through your Article, Please if there is anyone who can help me out, he or she can contact me through my Email princechrix2@gmail.com , I'll actually use that opportunity to show back that you didn't make a mistake of helping me.

Hi Prince, feel free to DM me. I have a Macbook and a Windows/Linux PC, so you might find my opinion useful. I'll be happy to help you!

This is an excellent advice article for people new to this field and still learning. Thank you!

This is such a good read! Got to understand so many things! Thanks for writing!

I've read it and bookmarked it too thank you

You don't know how much that means to me. I only bookmark things I've really liked and consider essential! Hope that helped! 😁

Thank you for the advice. I’ll be sure to take something away from this

Hey Javier, thankyou so much for this post. It boosted my spirit as a youngiee and could get some great insights and things to improve.

Nice to hear that, keep pushing. With work, time will make you a great developer! 😉

I could have done with an article like this when I first started my coding journey.

Glad to hear that! I want to help juniors like me grow. Do you find that I've missed something?

You covered most topics already which is good. I would just add becoming active on social media and joining communities to boost your network. And to start writing so that your can document your journey and use it as a learning resource.

Another thing that junior developers could do is build products and launch them on ProductHunt and Gumroad. This can be a good way to get into tech and along the way you will pickup business, networking, marketing and sales skills.

Andrew Baisden thanks so much for that!

I'll add a new section, really clever advice!

Awesome read, thank you!

Thanks, glad you'd like it!

Oh sorry, you have the DMs blocked, I was about to DM you but I couldn't. I've you'd like to share it feel free to ping me @javisnchztech on Twitter

Thanks for the wonderful motivation. I'm 13 and most times, I feel like I'm too young to be a web developer (I'm not even a junior developer 😅). I started web development when I was 11 and thanks to you, I know how to improve my knowledge on my field of study. I know I may be too young for this, but I hope that I can help others the way you've helped me.

Let me tell you that you'd probably be a way better developer than not just only me, but all the people you read about. Starting that young gives you ages to improve and build stuff. You have "almost infinite time" compared with an adult. So use it wisely!

But don't forget to have fun with your friends, that's essential, and more at your age! 😉

I've just created a new Twitter account, if you want to DM me, feel free! @javisnchztech

man!! learnt a lot from your articleJavi Sanchez !! as a junior developer i would definitely follow your advice sir!!!

Glad to know it helped! But please, don't follow my advice blindly, I don't know that much. Always assess what I say, and please leave a comment and tell me. That way I'll be able to correct the mistakes.

I've just created a new Twitter account, I'll be posting tips and resources. But if you wanna chat, just DM me! @javisnchztech
