It’s time to revisit my learning plan for learning to code! With the start of a new year and career uncertainty ahead, I’m setting some goals to make sure this Start Over Coder expedition stays on track.

For the record & prosperity (!) I’m going to:

• Gain skills with relational databases: learn structure, learn SQL, build sample projects.
• Learn React, and build sample projects.
• Learn CSS grid, and build sample projects.
• Dive deeper into JavaScript and Node.js. And build sample projects!
• Get my first paid work as a developer by 30 June, 2018.
• Be more specific about calendarizing work sessions: more specificity = more productivity.
• Share what I learn in this podcast and in a blog.
• Practice pair programming.
