Discussion on: What software development skills only come with experience?

Things you probably won't learn in school:

• How to organize your code and files well (that scales with large codebases)
• How to structure solutions on a high-level
• How to use composition (object or function) as the means of code re-use (you will learn about inheritance instead 😒)
• How to do real OOP (which is really closer to functional programing than most think)

Aside from that:

• Real confidence (sometimes you just need to have done X many times)
• Broad understanding of how front-end can affect back-end, etc.
• Writing really simple and readable code
