If you need my personal time, please read this

Dear Reader,

some Context

Why are you here? You got this link in some chat or comment because you asked me to spend my personal time on something. If that's the case, please read as to why I am unable to do it. After that I have also provided answers to common questions/requests which I generally get and how my content or community can be helpful.

Why I can't spend 1:1 time? I have a full time job. A job which has its own responsiblities. My social media presence or my free courses are of my goodwill. Nobody, literally nobody pays me for doing this.

Now, I have 50K+ followers across various channels and I try put my learnings out there as much as I can. It is impossible for me to do these small favors which people ask. I know it takes a lot of courage to ask, I respect that. I am also not denying that I can be helpful. But understand that this will not scale.

So, the question is what to do?

solutions to common asks

Can you review my profile? To Be Filled

Can you do a mock interview for me? To Be Filled

I want you to be my mentor, can you? To Be Filled

I made this app, can you review it? Due to limited time in a day, I can not review each and every link which people send me in DM. I understand that you have worked hard on this and totally benefit from me having a look but time constraint is a real thing. For these feedback however, I would suggest you use some forums on FB or Telegram etc. Talk to your fellow developers and take their feedback. That would help you too. Tweet it out and tag some developers in the domain.

If you have something which I haven't answered in this post, please feel free to comment here and I will add a solution to it.

Thank you for all your patience and love,

Tanay Pratap
