What do you think about inverting the Next.js logo?

Hi Rushita, there are different ways to do this, but one of them is to run an EC2 instance - I think this video might help you : https://youtu.be/nQdyiK7-VlQ?si=FW7NJlbuljAdvHFD

@Rushita Devi Hi, when you get time to do this, would you mind sharing how you found doing the AWS deployment? Was there anything missing from the video? do you have a link to the finished site?

I used https://www.howtographql.com/, which I quite liked, and is free. I found it from https://graphql.org/learn/ which also links a few other things.

@Bogdan Nedelcu - this is interesting, it makes me think "is there an example of a really good rest API?" in Node/Express, not something complicated, just a CRUD for todo's or something like that but with all the things you mention (including documentation, tests, etc) that we could use as a guideline for best practices?

Hi Alfred, in my opinion you would struggle to get any work for free experience, there is still enough money in tech that people can get paid so offering to work for free is not always a good deal, it also shows that you have low value... it's very different to an internship (which is paid and sounds like it would be great for you). The main thing is that it's actually quite difficult to set up a new employee or co-worker, you need permission to work on all the code/hosting/etc, and you need to configure your laptop to match everyone else on the project... it takes a day or two at least with help from the team... then you need to spend a week or 2 (or 6) getting lots of help and advice so you are doing things the right way for that company/team... then you will start adding value to the project. With that kind of effort, no one wants to set up someone who seems like low value or may leave quickly (for any other paying job). I would suggest instead of asking for unpaid work, ask for work experience, or internships. Build a portfolio of what you can do/what you have done and then move on up in your career. Lastly, I recently came across https://www.frontendmentor.io/ which might also be helpful to you as they claim to help people connect with employers. Good luck 👍
