Amazing story, Edmond. Nice to know someone who learnt coding in 3 months, especially from a non-tech background and landed an entry level role. I'm learning CSS now. Any advice?

Thank you for reading Peter. I would suggest taking a look at freecodecamp.org, theodinproject.com, and open.appacademy.io. After I graduated from App Academy they made the whole curriculum free for everyone online. This is the same exact program I had to pay around ~$30,000 for, FREE, for anyone who is willing to take the effort to go through it themselves. Get some friends to keep you accountable to start grinding!
