  • 6 months My planned progression has halted. I went full backend in PHP and there is no longer anything that github can offer me. I still store my code, but since it's company code I can't host it publically on github. I also never seem to be able to quite finish my work and that resulted in halted learning of new things and diminished focus on my own projects. I really hope I get back on track with those aswell as exceed expectations at work. It's a fun journey still though and I have come far working in a team.

* I would only recommend this to someone who already tried programing and is familiar with syntax and how programs look. First time reading this book I had no idea what was going on, I skipped to CS50 course and went back to the books. They made much more sense and it was easier to read through and actually understand the topics.

** Before doing this course, you should be familiar with some of the HTML and CSS just progress easier and understand better.
