To help others but not everyone can afford it. Sometimes it’s that part that keep Jr devs or beginners from learning. We just want to learn and pass along what we learn to others. I guess what I’m trying to say is help one another and check on each other often because it’s very

Easy to fall into depression and get lost. Mental health is important and definitely not talked about enough among developers. So go check on your friends right now. Trust me they will appreciate it more than you can ever imagine

Which one do you use @CodePen or @codesandbox and why? Which one would you recommend for new developers or people who are just starting to learn to program and why? #codingnewbie #WomenWhoCode #jrdeveloper #codingisfun #womenintech #CareersInCode #Developer
Been working at my 1st dev job for 1 yr. I don’t feel any farther ahead today than a 1 yr ago. I need a job where someone can properly mentor me. How do you do that? I’m never going to find one. Imposter syndrome is so bad I want to quit everything. #notsure #stillanewbie

For those developers who have families, how do you juggle raising a family, keeping a house, learning updates or new languages and creating projects? I’m struggling with all of that right now. What are your tips/tricks #jrdeveloper #womenwhocode #familyandcoding #needsometips
