Don't be afraid to ask for help! Learning to code is tough enough, so don't make it harder by refusing to ask for help. Sometimes all it takes is someone else explaining how it works for you to "Get It". #learntocode #100DaysOfCode #GetUpgraded

What are you waiting for? What excuse do you have for not starting? Whatever it is, throw it away! It is time to stop procrastinating and #learntocode. Just you and the keyboard! #100DaysOfCode #GetUpgraded

Just remember: YOU. CAN. CODE. Don't let the little hiccups on the path to learning get you down. Keep coming back every day and learning a little more! #100DaysOfCode #learntocode #GetUpgraded

Just starting out as a programmer? Don't try to learn while doing a large project! Instead, break your learning up into small (but still useful) projects. This will make your life much easier when you actually build your dream project! #100DaysOfCode #learntocode

My recommended Minimum Tech Stack to build a Minimum Viable Product: HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript frontend + Firebase Hosting, Functions, and Firestore backend. You only need to learn 6 things! #100DaysOfCode #learntocode #startup #GetUpgraded

When you set out to learn web development, do yourself a huge favor! Ignore all of the modern frameworks (i.e. React, Vue, Angular, Bootstrap, etc.) Focus on the basics: HTML, CSS, and Javascript. #100DaysOfCode #learntocode #GetUpgraded

Learning to code is just as much about learning what the wrong solution is as it is about learning what the right solution is! Don't think of it as failure. Think of it as a new learning opportunity! #100DaysOfCode #learntocode #programming #GetUpgraded

Having trouble picking what programming language to learn how to program with? Well, stop worrying about it! JavaScript, Python, Java, Ruby. Pick ONE. Now start learning and never look back! #100DaysOfCode #programming #GetUpgraded

Web Development is not a single thing. It is a combination of a lot of related skills. If you focus on learning and mastering one skill at a time, you will be a full web developer before you know it! #100DaysOfCode #programming #GetUpgraded

Programming Tip: The first language is the hardest to learn, but far. So keep at it! Once you have one language under your belt it will be easier for you to pick up the next. Just remember, the languages are tools, not the endgame! #100DaysOfCode #GetUpgraded #Programming

Interview Tip: Don't be afraid to apply for a job position you don't fit 100%. If you know the main skills, you can easily pick up everything else once you get hired! #100DaysOfCode #InterviewTips #GetUpgraded

"Expert" people still search for code all the time and use console.log. Use the right tool for the job, don't ever feel guilty! #100DaysOfCode #programming #javascript #webdevelopment #csharp #java #code #programmer

As you are coding, try to move forward with the smallest increment possible. It's easier to figure out what you need to do, and to debug when things go wrong. If you code in large chunks you are much more likely to get stuck. #100DaysOfCode #programming #javascript

Interview Tip: You should already know the answer to: "What achievement are you most proud of?" If you don't, you will either waste precious interview time or make yourself look unprepared! #InterviewTips #100DaysOfCode #GetUpgraded
