I wish I knew those things in my 20s. 🥲

Dear Amigos and Amigas!

I was 20 years old when I started for the first time learning java code at the university and could for the first time build a desktop software using JavaFX and later my first web application using JEE and Prime faces - I didn't know Spring at that time -. And I said, well I made it, I learned how to code. Here is the hard truth I wish I knew: I DIDN'T LEARN CODING YET!

Well, you could technically build a website, a web application, a desktop software. However, if you are missing the fundamentals! You still know nothing about programming. Fundamentals could be: What is the idea behind functions? Behind variables? What is actually a framework? Why using a framework? What are the SOLID Principles? What are the Design Patterns? Why using those Patterns? Why I should learn Linux? Why I should learn Network?

Asking such questions are fundamentals to keep growing! And regardless how quickly are the technologies including AI are developing. The fundamentals are and will always be the same.

I believe this is your chance to learn the fundamentals, the very basics through the videos of Amigoscode and asking not only technical but also fundamental questions.

A JUNIOR WITH FUNDAMENTALS IS BETTER THAN A SENIOR WITH ONLY TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE

HAPPY LEARNING AND CODING!
