For all of my college years, I struggled to find the thing that gives me joy and also pays well. People call it passion, I call it one-of-the-many-things, it helps reduce the pressure of the things that I am pursuing and still allows me to explore new things. Sounds subtle.
I tried many different things and at the end of the college year, that too in the last semester, I finally realized what aligns with me.
Web development has always intrigued me, offering a canvas for creativity with its animated websites and unique designs. It was more than just coding; it was an experience, a journey into the digital realm where every line of code translated into a visual masterpiece.
This month has been almost about the backend and I will cover it too in this series only but I want to start with React for no particular reason. But this blog is backed by reasoning which is to curate my thoughts and understanding of the topics that I learned and it is also a part of the process. That is why I was searching for the things that aligned with me, it makes everything related to it fun. This is fun.
My first idea of React was ( and notice that I used "was") that it would be difficult, obviously not friendly and I might fail but that all changed when I learned it from Hitesh Choudhary. I was not sure about going with his videos, not because they are long but because I was afraid that I might end up wasting my time. I am GLAD I clicked on the video. He is truly a gem with his politeness and how he tackled React so far( I am only three videos in). Learning React is going to be a fun experience, I can feel it.
I would rest my fingers until my next article. Until then I will make sure to learn and give back.
