    I think while true, this doesn't take into account the need for diffuse thinking that can help with figuring out solutions when you have hit a roadblock. Relaxation can let you figure out a solution.

    I have a question about portfolios. Ive been studying web development in a school and also by myself for over a year now. I can make a website on my own, mainly using HTML, CSS and JS. JS mostly taken from stackoverflow if I want some basic functionality on the site so it would look a bit better. But I know my code isnt looking good. Like when I do stuff with CSS I know it can be managed way better. Do the people who hire actually look at the code and base their decision on that or more how good the design is and if overall the site looks nice?
    Since I have to do a several month long internship (more like "practice", odd way of saying that in english) to finish school, I would also study alot more in a company.
    I am just nervous about how they react to what a mess my code can look, even though the sites look decent.

    Making a plan for myself right. It's tough but I'm trying my best. Don't really know anyone irl though who does code though lol so it gets hard when I have issues or questions, just have to frantically google and hope I can figure it out. Although I guess that's a useful skill in and of itself

    Thank you for the advice Andy.
    Just began my journey of web development and I'm currently learning HTML and it's going well.
    I have one question.
    Is it possible to learn everything or at the very least most things of what you need to know about programming in general via websites like Udemy, Codecademy (Which is what I'm using) etc? Or do you suggest going the open university route?
    Thank you I really appreciate your insights.

    If my ask for advice, what should I learn get into game industry as programmer? Currently just focusing python to get to know programming and its fundamental through udemy course will probably branch out to C# later on. I taking break as fresh grad for 6 month not Software Engine or Computer Science graduate, would love to get some insight.

    Hey Andy....I just created a CRUD app , a Covid Tracker Application and an application consuming Spotify api......But when I look at other people's portfolio it lowers my confidence and I think that my projects are not at all portfolio worthy.....I created those projects and added some screenshots in github for their description but they dont have unit tests , dont know if they handle security issues good and are not deployed on any server .....Can I still add them to my portfolio or I just need to wait more build more complex stuff or contribute to open source to do that?

    • @Zeuts85

      Just my opinion, but if you're aiming to just get your foot in the door as an entry-level programmer, those sound like fine additions to your portfolio. It's perfectly reasonable to have a number of smaller, simpler apps. Just make sure you also have a "capstone" project too. I.E. something that has a fair number of moving parts, putting together a lot of the concepts you've learned from smaller projects. Assuming you're looking to be a full-stack dev, I'd say the minimum requirements for a capstone would be a front-end single page application (ideally in a framework like React), and a backend API (something like Spring Boot) that performs CRUD operations on a database. I wouldn't worry too much about security or creating real authentication unless you really want to stretch yourself, as that can get VERY involved. A solid understanding of the pieces of a full-stack application is all most employers really expect from a new hire (at least that's true around where I live--Columbus Ohio). Good luck!
