I'm an Engineering Manager who has also taught coding to hundreds of people. This video is full of solid advice and the path Brian describes is legit. Free Code Camp is an amazing resource.

I’ve watched a million of these types of videos over the past few weeks and this one is the best by far. No BS, straight substance

@cas54926

I learned Python over the pandemic, got my first job last year. I think it's important to think about what you'd like to do, then pick the language. I found that interviews and tests focus on fundamentals of the language. Also, knowing a coding language alone is unlikely to land you a job by itself, so find others skills that might be needed for the job you want. For me, I ended up needing stats, SQL, Git, some Cloud knowledge, Agile. One of the things I suggest to people trying to make a decision about what to learn - decide on the job, find job titles relevant to the job, find all requirements they have in common and starts with those.

This video is full of great and accurate advice. The way to learn to write good code is by first writing bad code. You have to get your hands dirty and write. Don’t just watch tutorials.

@welp7

Fellow engineer here. You gave great and practical advice!!

@EverydayGamingGA

Man, im so glad i clicked on your video. I've been seeing the thumbnail on my feed but never clicked on it. But all of sudden, today i decided to click on it, and bro, i wish i had clicked on it earlier. Ive been learning to code for about 2-3 weeks now and scrambled all over the place with the languages.

@devsol9

Dope vid. I encourage those starting out with coding to use the “T” method. Meaning take one language and drive it to completion or until you can write over 25 lines of code without googling an example.

@johnmoniger3008

Thanks Brian. I'm 61 and you are a very articulate person and I like watching you.

Phase 1: Start with html, css, and javascript. These act as gateway languages to learn other languages. Be sure to use AI like chat gpt. Phase 2: Learn python. Its friendly to all begginers. Phase 3: Learn React for easy next level web development. Depending on what you want to do, you can also consider other languages like NextJS or NodeJS. Phase 4: Practice, research, refine, and profit.

@FranklyItsMe

There is something so REFRESHING about a video that I click on and the man just faces the camera and talks straight facts. No crazy “special effects “ or drama. Subscribed!!! 
Thank you!!!

@brocobra_22

I liked the way you are trying to help people not to do some mistakes

@sethjackson2010

This video has definitely helped me. I'm a service conncected veteran looking for a new career after a ohysically deabilitating diagnosis,. This gave me a lot of confidence to move forward when I start looking for positions after my schooling.

@Aaron_Mullen

This is one of the first videos I watched that didn't feel like a salesman pitch disguised as a career advice video. Thank you so much for being authentic.

@BenPerez-d5u

I love how you break down complex topics into simple and understandable explanations.

@karadanae2212

This is THE BEST advice video I've come across; you don't waste time stating the obvious, trying to be cute, affiliate marketing, etc. You get straight to the meat; every second is critical, no filler / fluff. THANK YOU!

@lioneljones8080

This is a pretty good video, I am a full stack developer with experience with a lot of different frameworks, I have over 25+ years in software development and have done very well. I mentor a lot of people and they all ask me how to get started and a lot of the points you have stated are true, especially with they way technology changes. I am going to subscribe and bookmark this video and pass it on to some of my mentees 😂

@MyCodingDiary

I love how you break down complex topics into simple and understandable explanations.

@Jahxbjaihebbsghfyrhkic

You articulate amazingly thanks for all the info

@QueenReAlady

Thank you! This was very informative. I am starting to teach myself coding for job security. Also to build multiple streams of income. New Sub❤

@fcarter3863

This is good advice. I'm going through it right now. I just continue to code and learn but also I have learned a lot through failed interviews
