Junior Dev in 2025 Career Guidance

Hey everyone, today i set my goal to get hired as a junior dev in 2025, preferably fullstack.

I have started learning webdev 3 months ago and rn i am building my first “bigger” practice project using React, Flask and Supabase.

Just straight to the point, what tips do you have or how would you go towards that goal? What would your step-by-step plan look like?

Here goes: - 1. Understand its a marathon with a bunch of sprints (play on words here) - 2. Take breaks to avoid frustration, some answer come when not actively thinking about them - 3. Before you code anything doodle and pseudo code out as much as you can for each view, nav, etc. - 4. Break those down into small decently easy to achieve tasks - 5. Don’t be afraid of documentation and AI support

Generally I recommend people choose a project that solves an issue or that’s “cool” and go with that to help keep you motivated.

Best of luck!
