Launching soon!
I would focus more on building a strong network early on.
Connecting with mentors and peers can provide invaluable insights, opportunities, and support that accelerate your learning and career growth.
Investing time in relationships can open doors that technical skills alone might not.

1. Be more social. Works great for personal and professional development as well as business opportunities
2. Try more ideas, check results and adapt.
Definitely wish I focused more on real projects early on rather than just taking courses. Building a portfolio and learning to problem solve on your own teaches you way more than any class can. Getting comfy diving in and figuring things out as you go is the fastest path to leveling up your skills in tech.
Focus on building projects you're passionate about over chasing the hottest tech. Genuine enthusiasm is a huge asset when networking, learning, and interviewing. When you truly care about what you're working on, the technical skills and career opportunities tend to follow more naturally. Don't underestimate the power of building something you love.
