Learn To Code With Scrimba: scrimba.com/allcourses?aff=jacob

Really loved this one, especially the part about the mindset. Pure gem 💎

Coding 715am to 815am the next 30 days… lets get after it!

this is totally a good one, and really motivates the new coders. Great work Jacob and keep up the good work

One of your best videos Jacob!! I was actually thinkign about making a website with ideas for small projects if devs lacking inspiration for projects. I think I might start working on that while watching your backlog of videos

Jacob throwing all these gems to us! 💎 You're a Godsend! Keep it up mate. From your old neighbour in Syd, AUS!

I'm a 16 year old student studying Computer Science in UK Sixth Form and aspiring to be a Software Engineer, this video really helped me understand how to develop and learn my coding. Loving the videos Jacob.🙌🏼

Great content! Great advices! One of the best UKposts contents out there! Thank you!

Amazing video!! As a junior bioinformatician looking to move more into the IT such as Data scientist/ Data enigneer, this video is perfect (changing aspects)! Love the tips all round like coding on regular basis, projects to build and resources!

Honestly this video provides a better structure than being in uni. I’ve just graduated but wish I had some video like this in the past. I can at least share with my friends who are just getting started. Thanks Jacob ❤❤

amazing videos, thank you for the tips !!

Great content like always. You explained everything that is needed. I would like to see more long videos like this, have a good day!

Liked and subscribed. I needed this video ❤

Hey Jacob, Love the video, keeping up with coding and studying for exams at the same time is a little hard sometimes, but your videos always keep me motivated. Appreciate it mate!

Thanks jacob. Appreciate the content!

Great stuff!

Jacob, thank you! I start today

Thanks Man I needed that Guidence. Appriciate You Brother

Amazing video for those who want to get started with coding! Love seeing people sharing their knowledge

Great video, Jacob! Really captured the whole process from start to finish 👌😁

I am commiting to the 30 day challenge! Thanks Jacob, I love coding but i was demotivated so much and you just motivated me to actually start learning ! was really struggling, and your videos just motivated me so much ! Thank you !

Mate, I don’t usally comment. Anywhere. At all. But I want to thank you for lightning up that passion once again for me. Web dev here. You got that power dude! Keep it up! Keep it real! Thank you 👨🏻‍💻

Hi Jacob, I not only enjoyed this vlog but found it helpful and informative as I am an aspiring Web Developer. Thank you and appreciate your video

Loved the video man! Very informative and inspirational!

From that video months back where you said that scrimba was a good way to start learning I went to with it, and even bought the Pro version of it, so far i've been learning a lot and hope to keep going to be ready to find a job of this, so yeah, thank you for all the amazing vids man keep it up! ❤❤

bro it was awesome!!

This is probably one of the most useful videos i´ve ever seen! Thanks man!

This video was awesome man. Thank you for creating it! Thanks to you, I'm already 35% through Scrimbas Front End Developer Path. Thanks again! 🙌

this is one of my favorite videos on this topic by far. i have been in the cycle you mentioned at the start. back in 2017 i'd get inspired to learn, i'd follow tutorial and then by monday i'd get back to work and not code till next time i felt inspired. somewhere along 2017 i stopped trying to learn and last year i picked it back up on and off. For the a last 2 months i been going at it at least 2-3 hours daily minimum. Finding you and seeing your content has played a role in me staying disciplined while chasing this goal. I'll come back to this comment later this year when I get my first web dev role to update you.

Just started using vercel and it's so good and I'm finally starting my first project using typescript instead of javascript!

My mood is automatically great when jacob posts a new video ❤

Great Job Jacob. I really like your videos

For all the mates who are already software devs, it's also important to keep practicing and learning every day! Great video legend!

I'm a graphic designer and studied computer science in college for a few years. Absolutely hated it, but I have found myself coming back to it over and over. I think the environment was the thing I hated, and the amount of pressure. This video made it feel approachable and less enigmatic, and I seriously appreciate you giving some clarity to what I've been thinking about for the past few years. I'm definitely going to try out frond end dev, and see if it would be a good marriage of the design I've been doing for a decade and the problem solving I've been running into with Ui design. An hour a day for 30 days, let's do this!

Starting the 30 day challenge Monday, very helpful video. Loved it - thank you

Very useful video tbh 😍👌🏻 I share it with my insta followers 👏🏻

This so good man. seems you have put so much effort to this video. Hope this reach lot of new bies and get the best out of it. I also got inspired to learn new tech after watching this ⚡

amazing video again. I've needed this ages ago . Started as a network admin, video editor later, manual tester and software tester later, love to learn more and started learning python for a automation project. Now I am learnig and pushing to github every day javascript. I will add also go opensource, build your portfolio with your love building fun projects and be passionate about it. Along the road you will be surprised that you learning and getting better. Againg chapeau buddy for the topic of the video.

As a kiwi myself, you have definitely inspired me bro, the last 4 months, i have been teaching myself HTML CSS and javascript with the intentions to study next year for the web development and design diploma course, part time while i still still work full-time. Keep up the awesome content 👏

Another great video

The simple, concise and "plain talk method" you use to break this down....and not sound like we will constantly battle self-defeat, is incredible. I have been learning to code for about a year actively while working full time, not easy! I have the time off and accept your 30-day challenge! I'm knee deep in JS on freeCodeCamp and just discovered Scrimba! The Next 30 days are going to form my retirement business...THANK YOU!

Awesome! Always liked Scrimba for learning React otherwise, good stuff here!

Really Honest Man in this world clear and informative video♥♥♥♥

The Odin Project is the best resource to learn web dev 🤤

Very cool video. Have you thought about making a video about your journey as a software engineer? When you got started, what languages and frameworks did you start out with, how long you've been editing videos, etc. ?

im committing to the 30 day challenge 💯Thank you for the tips !

Really appreciate this video! I find myself consuming hours of content and not actually taking the time to understand it . This really gave me a clear mindset on how to progress further in a more efficient and healthy way

LFG Jacob!!

Really good video ! Well explained and nice listed resources. Would be interesting which VSCode extensions you are using and if you have some bonus tips on that

love this. i'll be sleeping over at Scrimba for the next few weeks learning JS. im tired of having to depend on coders taking their sweet time on my projects and basically holding me ransom. been over 1 year of follow ups and stories and quitting and replacing... Thanks Jacob.

Amazing video. Been learning to code for 4 months now off and on due to me working 40-50 hours a week. This month I decided to stick to doing 2 hours a day of learning to code and doing projects.

I would say on the topic of mindset, it's also really important to change how you look at failures and errors. It can be frustrating when things don't work. But, when something isn't working, that is the best possible opportunity to learn something. Which expands on what you said, "there is a solution, I just need to find it". That process of finding it IS the exciting part, so learning to say, "Oh cool, it's not working how I wanted or expected it too. What's actually happening here?" instead of, "This sucks, nothing is working." Embrace failure and it will make things much more rewarding when you understand WHY it's failing and eventually get things working.

I listen while driving a big rig to help saturate my brain with vocabulary then I go home and practice with tutorials and working on some small projects

Thanks, better blogguer ever

Fucking hell this has to be one lf the best video on this topic I have ever come across

No problem has an infinite time constant. Every problem has a solution. Every problem also has a problem solving process. Although, not every solution is right for your constraints, every set of constraints has a success path. I have followed this mindset for a long, long time, and it has worked well for me.

Coding an hour per day. Great video!! Loved the info and all the ehlp

You know lifes good when Jacob posts multiple videos in one week

haha, awesom! I started about five years ago, have a great progress, and I totally agree -- just practice more! google for errors! do it every day! And eventually it all ... clicks and comes together :) nice job!

Great content ofc ill be doing that 30 days challenge ❤❤❤

yeah I have been through the same thing past 5 years(weekend hype and dip) Time to adapt the 30 day challenge mindset

I'm already a dev and have been for coming on 2 years now after follwing a very similar path to you. But i need to get back into writing code on my own time instead of just on the clock - so what the hell, might aswell start the 30 day challenge too !

starting now.

Love the video man! I'm stuck on what to start with though I want to be a Web developer for the front end to get started but I know absolutely nothing should I jump straight into jarva or should I learn HTML and CSS first? I want this to go smoothly as I really wanna make a career out of this!

Scrimba is the meal delivery service of front end development. You can get more and better for way less, but you'd have to figure out the meal you want to eat, find the right recipe among the thousands of recipes for the exact same meal and you don't even know how they're different, and then you'd have to go to the store to buy those ingredients only to discover pine nuts are not as cheap as they sound like they'd be and now you buy premade pesto when the whole point of this recipe was to make your own pesto, so you switch to a different recipe that doesn't require pine nuts but then you read that pine nuts are a key ingredient in pesto, so now you wonder if you're actually making the right recipe to begin with, so you find a different recipe with ingredients that you recognize and you go get those ingredients and you go home to cook it and then you have to cut the ingredients and it turns out the recipe requires an oven but you live in an apartment with nothing more than an electric stove, so you google whether you can cook this thing without an oven and now you're just pan-frying a fancied-up chicken thigh which you could have done to begin with and you overcooked it anyway because you were more afraid of salmonella than dry chicken. So the next day you decide screw chicken, I'll make fish, and you go buy a fish and some herbs and butter and you ruin it the second you put it into a pan that wasn't hot enough or maybe too hot or maybe it's not non-stick after all because the skin is instantly sticking and now it's burning and the smell is filling the whole place and you rush to open the window even though it's freezing outside and you hope the fire alarm doesn't go off and now you have overcooked skin on a raw piece of fish and you wonder if you're ever going to ever do anything at all. It's so much easier to pay someone else to decide for you, someone to tell you what to do, someone who won't let you make mistakes. Is that the best way to learn? No. It's easy, and no one ever learned a life lesson because things were going so well for them. But it's safe. And I think in a space that's so crowded with tutorials making it seem possible to learn so many things and with dozens of videos (like this one) giving you contradictory advice--that's so overwhelming for new learners that it can be crippling. For those people, Scrimba is nice. CS50 is better.

30 days challenge, here I come 💪🏼🔥

Thanks made me motivate! Let me start 30 days challenge....⚡︎

❤❤

Thank you for thiis , am currently selft studying, my dream is to become a web developer!

Going to commit to doing 1 hour pre day starting today!

I’ve bounced all over the place. Going to try this challenge too

For the next 30 days I will learn html , css and Js for 2 to 4 hrs per day since im free

Challenge accepted. Every day 1 hour strictly. I want to master python. I tried JS and react and even had some internship, but I didn’t had fun. The problem is i can’t afford scrimba because of some personal issues, is there any other free platform that i can use? Thank you for the motivation in these hard days for this world.

Jacob, how many hours daily (while avoiding burnout) would you recommend someone trying to become technical ASAP for their own startup (would require deployment of Android applications so fullstack essentially)?

Starting the scrimba "Learn JavaScript" for the next 30 days! let's goooooooo

Out of curiosity, I am surprised Code Academy didn’t make the list. Any thoughts on their platform?

I learned html and css , now I'm learning JavaScript and after that i will learn React and jQuery for frontend.❤ For backend ,i will learn python and node js and sql . 😊😊 I wanna be a full stack developer in web dev . Are these language and tools enough to be a full stack developer.😊😊❤❤

Do you think the job market has calmed down since the mass layoffs in the tech industry and the whole "AI replacing programmers" scare?

if ur 20mm lens is on table so what is the one ur filming with?

omg learning the for loops tho.... I'm on my death bed rn

I guess this is a dumb question but still please answer it, if I'm completed doing 10 project and I want to add it in my portfolio as a love demo, should I need to buy domain for each and spend all my money in domain or is it free in vercel or some other platform to host my live projects?

I'm commiting to the 30 day challenge.

The on and off part is so me.

I’m committing to the 30 Day coding challenge. Just need to pick a language. I’m completely new to coding. I’m thinking of learning C#? Does anybody have other suggestions on what I should learn? I’m interested in game design, ai, and app development.

Linking this one to my friends who wanna start coding. Sub if you'll become a dev.

I'm committed to 30 day challenge

You have mentorship, I really miss communicating with real programmers😢. HELP ME😅

Right, I’m coding for at least 2 pomodoros (50mins) per day for 30 days starting now. Will reply to this comment each day. 😊

I am committing to 30 day challenge :)

Devin peeping with his devil eyes! 👀👀

I'm comitting to the 30 day challenge

first

I wouldn't suggest solely learning javascript/typescript, everyone is already doing that and you'll have to compete with them. Also, the language itself is simply a bad designed language, so I'd recommend learning at least one better language.

let's start the 30 days challenge

@JacobSucksAtCode is there anyway you could mentor me?

JUMPING TO SCRIMBA for 30DAYS CHALLENGE!
