If I can become a developer you can too. Here’s the 7 best resources I use.
From time to time I’m asked “How did you start as a developer? What’s a good site to use ? Any good resources? Is it easy” My answer to these questions tend to change all the time because my career as a developer continues to evolve and so does the resources.
For the last 13 years I have gone from reading books (“…for Dummies”, O’Reilly published books, etc), to searching the web, to a more “learn by doing” approach.
