6h • 💼 Career & Job Tips
Stop Overthinking. Start Shipping. 🚀
One thing I’ve learned in my 10 years as a developer is this; Frontend developers don’t get hired for what they know. They get hired for what they show.
I see too many beginners and even career switchers stuck in what we call “tutorial hell” watching videos, reading docs, finishing courses but never actually building and publishing projects
Here’s the truth:
- You don’t need to master every single JavaScript feature before applying for jobs
- You don’t need to know React, Vue, Angular, and Svelte all at once
- You don’t need a “perfect” portfolio to get your first freelance client or junior role
âś… What you do need is proof you can solve problems with code. That means shipping projects even small ones:
- A simple landing page in HTML & CSS.
- A to-do app in JavaScript.
- A portfolio site built with React.
These projects become your portfolio pieces. They give recruiters and clients confidence. They also give you the confidence to apply, to pitch yourself, and to keep moving forward
If you’re trying to break into tech, here’s my challenge: Stop worrying about what you don’t know. Pick one project idea, build it this week, and share it here in the community
Trust me, every single senior dev (myself included) started with ugly projects, broken code, and StackOverflow open on the side. The difference is, we kept building
Your future in frontend starts with pressing publish
