How To Become a Software Developer the Right Way

Thanks for the video, Tim!

I would like to get your opinion about what I confuse.

There are different languages for web development. When a beginner needs to choose a language for learning programming, how should he decide which language it should be? Is it job opportunities or the company where he wants to work or what exactly makes a language is more advantage than the others when someone starts to learn?

Hello Tim, just curious, other than C#, what is YOUR second favorite language in your opinion?

I'm a software developer and went the full 4 yr CS degree path. In my previous life I was in a hospital chemistry lab and I went back to school. I often think what it would be like to merge the two fields together for me. Don't forget to think along those lines and look for computer related avenues in your current profession if you're out in the workforce now. You could take boot camps or get a certificate and transfer positions. Because the company I work for does not even look at you unless you have a degree coming in off the street. I can't speak for other companies, but I think it's still common.

I've been building applications in C# for 17 years, some where full stack projects. As a self-taught developer, I am sure I did not follow this recommended path, so this advice still applies to me today to some degree. What in your training material do you recommend for someone with my level of experience?

Always I love Tim Corey's Dev Questions❤❤❤❤

Thanks for the video

I appreciate your perspective a lot, but I think something that is missed by many people starting now is base knowledge: algorithmic structures, operating systems, how the web works, and so on. I started learning a year ago and just got my first job. Focusing on a language definitely helped me get here faster (your channel is a great resource, thank you), but now that I have familiarized myself with C#, I find that I gain more from reading theory. Maybe a video for things that people should look into while they start to learn their first languge would be nc. Again thank you for the free content your channel is an amazing resource
