Learning from dev courses…or from side projects?

I love to complete a good course on software development or design. It makes me feel that I learned something new and I feel confident about it. ?

I love to complete a good course on software development or design. It makes me feel that I learned something new and I feel confident about it. ?

This last until I face a project and I realize I either forgot some parts or I don’t know how to use it here.

First I thought, the is a problem with my note taking technique or the course material…

Then recently a friend asked me to build a web app for her small business. It was all on me:

  • hosting
  • landing page
  • brand + UI design
  • database design
  • authentication
  • mails
  • i18n
  • etc.

In that half year of discussions, design and development I feel learned a tons and I thought to share with you.

Having a stake in the game changed the way I build knowledge.

If you haven’t been responsible to build something for somebody else, I can highly recommend! Even more, I am always happy to collaborate!
