Front end or other proggramming career?

[borke]

Hello guys,

I'm right now stuck, I don't have any idea what to learn . I want to learn the frontend. I'm curious is it worth to start learning it? I heard that you can find a job after 6,7 months. Is it a good career? I'm almost a beginner in programming. Can you recommend what I could learn from the frontend, if you don't learn frontend can you suggest me some other type of programming so I can take a look maybe is interesting too.

Don't expect to get a job within 6 months of learning any programming. It's not realistic, unless you're willing to commit 60 hours per week learning and practicing. And even then without a decent portfolio no companies will look at you.

Start with The Odin Project (Foundations). It will force you to create a GitHub portfolio of projects that you've coded and it has a great Discord community.

I also heard great things about Angela Yu's Udemy course.

Just don't course hop. Pick a course and follow through with it. Build a portfolio and expect to be turned down by hundreds of employers until someone gives you a chance.
