Week 1 in Review

Week 1 in Review

By Mike Bivens | Journey to Web3 | 13 Feb 2022


It was a strong start this week...

working with HTML and CSS. Both of which I have interacted with before at previous jobs and in self-directed study. So these were not quite a challenge.

A brief overview of what I covered:

HTML 
- Lists and Tables
- Images and Videos
- Forms

CSS
- Understanding the box model
- Selectors
- Flex and Justify

Heading into the next week...

I'll be continuing CSS and starting up JavaScript. Outside of the technical education, I'll be starting to make contact with others in web3 jobs and looking to conduct informational interviews. I have a very long list of topics that I am hoping to talk with others in the industry about and I am looking forward to sharing insights here in the coming weeks on this blog. 

The intro topics I am looking to dive into ASAP with informational interviews and utilizing the career resources of the boot camp; 

-What languages and technologies should a jr dev learn to break into web3
-Open source projects that I should look at contributing to
-Putting together a learning path (concepts, ideas, not just the technologies)

This week's post is brief as it reflects the easy start into the programming boot camp journey but as we proceed there will be much more information to share. As I've said before, I hope to leave this behind to help others find their way from beginner programmer to landing a job in web3.

Please know that anyone reading this is always welcome to comment and make suggestions or comments about anything mentioned in these blogs. Any help at all in discovering who I should speak with or things I should learn would be appreciated. A component of these blogs is to facilitate public learning and doing so inherently includes comments and suggestions such as these.

I am using this blog to talk about my experiences from pre-software development boot camp towards entering the Web3 ecosystem. I'll share thoughts and what I'm learning, reflect on the journey, and share informational interviews for others to follow along.
