I was in a thread the other day about what things make us feel stupid, and for me it was front end development. Saying it out loud made me realize that I should probably take another kick at the can, and I’m starting on React today.
Software’s one of those tricky things where sometimes you never feel like you’re very good at. Every thing you learn makes you realize there’s more to learn, and as you become more knowledgeable sometimes you might actually feel less knowledgeable. The Imposter Syndrome kicks many a new developer’s ass, so try to bear in mind that you probably know way more about software than before you started, and now you have about a year’s experience to boot!
Software development. I’m still not very good, but I’m better than I was at the start of the year.
