How to Get a Web Developer Job with No Experience

How to Get a Web Developer Job with No Experience
First let's talk about what is a Web Developer.
If you searched for this topic you probably already know what a web developer is, but just incase, I wanted to point out its not just making websites. A website is informational but once it becomes interactive, it becomes a web application and that’s what I do. I make forms, deal with databases, and a lot of other stuff that deals with user interaction.
PS: I can’t design worth crap. That’s called UX/UI and Web Design.

Now, let's get into the nitty gritty. When I first started on this journey I had no experience coding. I mean, as a kid I tried to learn HTML, but that was about it. It wasn’t until I was stuck in a customer service job, struggling to pay bills, & working hours that I hated that I finally started to consider an alternative career. Two of my friends were in IT and encourage me to go for it, but I just didn’t have the funds to go back to college.

This led me on a glorious, at times frustrating, but very rewarding journey of discovering what part of IT I liked and pursuing a coding/Web Developer job.

In the video I give great tips on how to become a Web Developer and I’m here to help you along the way, so if you have any questions, comment below.
