Why this course?
Quiz aheadI feel like newcomers in the field are lost and have no means to find their way. I feel like professional developers have dumped the new ones and see them as zombies. Nobody listens to them, nobody talks to them and they keep on causing disorder all around and that increases our pain. It's like a father who does not teach his son how to ride a bicycle and in turn complains of why the kid can't ride it.
This field as lost its culture of love for code. It's now clouded with business administration just busy about animating crowds to sell ads through that. There is today some kind of coding fashion shows all over the place.
Today there are so many resources out there to the extent that even us, the old developers, hardly find our way through. Plus, everyone seems to be shy. We all want to play the experts. Every little thing we do, we go and push in the big terms and make it look like it's from a guru. By doing so you purposely neglect a whole lot of learner who try hard to decode your message.
This is one of the reasons of the high rate of the imposter syndrome in the developers' community.
When someone tries to explain the baby-steps of something, we all gather and start calling it outdated techniques. Come and see us at work. In reality, most of us are still using those same techniques to produce real work and products. Real work is challenging. It's like being on the moon, zero gravity. Everything flies and can quickly go out of control.
I want to do something about it. I am trying to write a last memorable document which every newcomer could use, at any time or moment, to pave their way and join the elite groups. After reading it, you will not ask any stupid question again. I Promise You.
