How to become a front-end website developer 💻

Front-end web development is the process of building and designing the visual and interactive aspects of a website. It involves using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing websites that can be accessed through a web browser. Front-end developers work on the client side, meaning that their work is visible to and directly interacts with the end user. They are responsible for creating and implementing the look, feel, and behavior of a website, and ensuring that the website is accessible and user-friendly on a variety of devices. The goal of front-end web development is to create websites that are engaging, responsive, and accessible to all users.

To become a front-end website developer, you can follow these easy steps:

  1. Acquire fundamental HTML, CSS, and JavaScript knowledge through online courses, tutorials, or books.
  2. Develop your skills by building projects and learning frameworks such as React, Angular, or Vue.js.
  3. Get familiar with version control using Git and GitHub.
  4. Stay up-to-date with the latest web technologies, techniques, and industry trends.
  5. Participate in online forums, attend meetups, and network with other developers to learn from their experiences and gain new insights.
  6. Finally, practice and hone your skills by working on personal projects or contributing to open-source projects.

Note 📝: A portfolio of your projects and a solid understanding of the development process are key to finding a job as a front-end developer.

This is nice, but keep in mind that to be a website developer you don't need to just learn Node.JS web frameworks, and can also use other lang ones.

Yes, But in my opinion Don't rely on frameworks, just learn the base languages. so if any new framework becomes trendy you will be able to just learn it easily.
