Letter from a fella developer
As a self-taught developer, I own a big part of my learning to Internet resources. Since the mid-90s, I expended countless hours devouring tutorials, that helped me built awesome ideas and stay motivated.
I want to say thanks to all those Internet heroes. The passionate developers, the critical thinkers, the tech-explorers, and the learners sharing their path. Thanks to all of you who provide high-quality content that nurtures thousands of careers, including mine.
This is my humble attempt to do my bit and return some value.
The mission: To see the forest for the trees
With expertise comes the dialect, the technical speaking full of concepts that may become a bit opaque. Somewhere along the path, we tend to forget that everyone started with a Hello World.
It takes time to throw away the smart-ass speech, and understand that when we are trying to reach others, the simple is better.
The expert isn´t the one that talks most technical, but the one that is able to translate a hard concept to simple words related to the reader experience.
