This is my first blog as a developer to intro Web Development as well a kick-start to the same.

Then and Now!

The evolution from World Wide Web by Sir.Tim Berners-Lee to the modern sites is drastic as the needs of human lives increase.

Making lives better.

Which serves as the motto for whole tech world and mean a lot , Long then in 1990's websites were all like documentations or plain texts , accessed by only techies for development purposes , since then Web community had seen a steep growth which had made this a basic neccessity for common people.

Now not a single person can't make their lives without websites google is a special kinda website so wake up to see a great oppurtunity in this field ,

I have got to meet many founders and co-founders of different technologies to build up web.

This is because of the diversity in websites on the market , probably each object got one website I mean anything, So this is still growing and won't stop in foreseeable future. worth learning the skill set.

This booming tech field needs a giant task force , which is still holding the on demand jobs all over the world.

What actually does a web developers do!

More over the template based development and content managements ready made niche in development web developers do a complicated tasks of adding UI/UX , storing data , interaction with alien sites, security which maybe from scratch if its a startup else its about maintaining and updating.

These do require a vast skill set but mastering one is kind off a developers thing, due to the open source and free content in web this is not a scary thing to start on later in this blog I had mentioned some free contents.

The job market is wide due to specialities frontend, backend , database ,cloud, security, SEO's , version control.

mostly a developer end up a junior to work on as assistants to the seniors and knowing the code base of the corporate.
freelancing is a trend as many tend to have complete knowledge to develop a complete site from scratch.
Startups tend to be a area of interest for newbies as its a mixture of corporate and freelancing.

Skill set required

*Don't start with complicated materials or tutorials

Some of materials for a smooth start:

FreeCodeCamp recommended.

udemy
youtube
MDN DOCS reference.

Plenty books are avail for free online these do give a reference.

Conclusion

"Whether you want to uncover the secrets of the universe, or you just want to pursue a career in the 21st century, basic computer programming is an essential skill to learn."

That speaks so louder , So that you won't listen to me.

Obviously the future is unpredictable with AI, Machine Learning, Data Science. So stop learning is the only way you fail , start today.
