Disclaimer 🧵This isn't for everyone I became a software dev at 27. I was severely underpaid and my skills were VERY junior. How did I catch up? I treated my job like a continuation of my bootcamp - worked my 8 hours, then continued coding 3-4 more hours at night for ~ 2 years

Networking is important but remember if you're trying to become a dev, knowing how to code will always be the highest priority 1️⃣ I've seen people get too caught up on gaining a following or being a tech influencer that they lose sight of why they joined twitter in the 1st place
