10 GitHub Repositories for the Self-Taught Developer
Leverage open source to become a complete programmer
“Many people who excel are self-taught” — Herb Ritts
The term self-taught developer is thought to be an oxymoron for a lot of folks. Indeed, every developer is, to a certain degree, self-taught. However, my way of looking at being a self-taught developer is to be able to write production-level code while having a minimal/no college background in computer science, engineering, or IT (much like myself).
In this article, we will look at a few repositories that I have found useful to build/improve skills in software development.
