In my experience, many web development courses, especially the more expensive ones, often don’t provide the value you expect. While they may offer mentorship, the same guidance can often be found for free in many forums, such as Facebook groups or sites like www.stackoverflow.com
When people purchase courses, their learning capacity can sometimes diminish. They tend to focus solely on the course material instead of exploring broader resources. On the other hand, self-directed learning allows you to gain deeper insights from various sources.
Here’s a more effective, cost-efficient, 4-step approach to learning any stack, technology, or language, which I believe works much better:
🛣️ Find a Roadmap: Start with a clear learning path. Sites like www.roadmap.sh provide excellent roadmaps for different technologies.
đź“š Learn from Documentation and YouTube: Use official documentation as your main resource never overlook it! Pair this with YouTube tutorials to complement your learning based on the roadmap.
🛠️ Build Projects: Apply what you’ve learned by building real-world projects. Hands-on experience is key to mastering new skills.
💼 Get an Internship or Junior Role: This is where the real learning happens. In a professional environment, you’ll face real-world challenges and gain practical insights.
While courses can be useful for some, self-guided learning often leads to a deeper and more flexible understanding of the subject matter.
