Recommendations for front-end focused bootcamp grads
Raw
post_bootcamp.md
  • Spend more time learning/practicing than job searching
  • Focus on your specialty
  • Make websites: for yourself, your club, your mom, your neighbor
  • Make apps: typical examples (todo, sorted table), remake existing apps
  • Work on a passion project: find one app that clicks with you and work on it regularly
  • Learn about a11y/a11y development: valuable skillset that will set you apart from the crowd
  • Learn tooling: ESLint, Prettier, node modules
  • Make your own node module: it's not as hard as it seems and will provide you valuable info into how node modules work
  • Practice styling: CSS3 (variables, flex box, grid), SASS/LESS
  • Ditch bootstrap: fine technology that some companies use, but doesn't demonstrate much developer ability
