The biggest mistake beginner programmers make when learning to code is that they get stuck in "Tutorial Purgatory" this is when you keep taking a course, after course, and you never feel like you are making any progress.

As a self taught web developer, it can be hard to know how to become a web developer. We think that the way is just to take as many courses as we can.

But that is focusing on the wrong thing. In the end, the only thing that will show your experience is a good portfolio. So right from the start, you have to prioritize building projects for your portfolio versus seeing how many courses you can take.

Hiring managers only care about what you have built and deployed rather than how many courses you took.

So don not make the same mistake I did. Start with a project and learn what you need to get it done.

Let me know in the comments what has been the biggest blocker in getting work finished?
