The plan is to send 1000 applications each week.

Don't know how are you going to send 1k applications per week, but at this rate, odds against you are = 0
You'll get there and thanks for reminding me to keep improving my skills to be a better professional.
 
Those are a lot of applications bro, but I'm sure that if it looks good all you'll need is just one to accept the offer. Anyhow good luck!
 
If you have rich portfolio you can get a job easily. It's all about your portfolio. Many companies won't care about a certificate from real school, so make sure to work on developing stuff that will impress the HR checking your resume.
 
I'm really planning to start learning how to code, and i have 2 questions
What is the best language to start with as a beginner? for front-end development?
And what are some best courses do you see as the best for CSS, HTML?
 
Do you have github? Some projects on github would be nice.
If you want to expand your knowledge consider fullstackopen.
Yes I do have a github acc but it only has 3 projects in it. Yes i am visiting fullstackopen almost everyday..Thanks for the advice!

That's what I am focusing, so far I got 7 websites, two of them with React. Thank you for your advice!

You kind of answered you own question... HTML - CSS - JAVASCRIPT to begin with. Build 3 landing pages, make yourself comfortable with these three and the proceed on learning other stacks like React, Vue, Tailwind etc...

If you look on youtube there are many channels with free courses. I recommend "Netninja".

My mentality on this one is like I aim for the moon and I may hit a star :)

Yes, i know but i asked which one should begin with, of course, i won't start learning them all at once !!!
 
congrats for taking this step mate.
keeping building your portfolio, i see no problem with 100k.
 
Web dev Can be tricky, When i start learning it you feel like you know everything, till u figure out you know nothing .. the moment you have someone asking you to do something related to api, maybe special app ingeration you feel like you just waste time hahha, for me when i reach that point i took a step back, learning python and than i go back to web, python for me was so much fun than web, the way it's integrated stuff with everything, it's just amazing, you can use it also in web dev .. the thing is in programming you can learn a lot of stuff in one packet so do not just focus in one thing, i know a lof of gurus expert told you you should take one thing to be a master of it, but for me it's work the way around, know i can mix python with html css js vue js , basically i can mix everything up like a bad MasterChef in the kitchen haha.
Lol...you lucky it worked for then man, keep learning, keep pushing. The sky is the beginning!
 
I mean, I get your point. The first is always tough. And we been human, we let pur emotions get the best of us, which is normal, thereby explaining why I get you. But, am not sure people look for degrees and what's not these days. They just need someone who can get the job done. And from what you shared, I believe you more than qualified to applying to any job within your parameters. So let nothing stop you. Go for it. Cheers!
