What are you learning?
I am sure you have had the phrase “Always Be Learning.” So I am curious Indie Hackers, what are you currently learning?
I am guilty of taking on to much, so no surprise, I am trying to learn to much as well.
- Golang: I am currently taking a course on Golang as I am impressed by what the language has to offer and I want to get more into server less architecture which Golang is great for.
- AWS Solutions Architect: Before the end of the year, I am going to be taking the AWS Certified Solution Architect exam space this is my prep course.
- Elasticsearch: I have been using a great service called Algolia for search recently but it has become clear to me that it is to expensive for a bootstrapped like myself, so I am looking to switch to self hosted Elasticsearch which is much cheaper.
- Flutter: I have always been a web guy, but I want to start out putting apps, so I have committed to Flutter to start producing cross platform apps.
Currently:
Yes webflow is pretty excellent! Used this for BankPayments.net. Initially tried wordpress and found it abit of a mess.
I'm learning currently:
Would like to get more practical knowledge on sales and marketing
Vue.js
🙌 VueJS for the win! Have you started looking at Nuxt as well?
No, i am still at the beginning.. WIP. one SPA (actually admin dashboard, the public site is powered by laravel) and some Vue.js components to a site. I do like that laravel comes with vue.js ready.. It's nice :)
That is exactly how I learned. 👍 Let me me know if you need any help.
Thank you! :)
I'm working on learning React myself. I learned web development when jQuery was the hot new thing. But now jQuery is basically a curse word in the development world. Learning it has been a bit more challenging than I was anticipating. However, I'm still having fun. Learning a new thing is extremely rewarding!
I am about a year or two ahead of you. I too was in the mix of the jQuery glory days. Two years go I transitioned to VueJS. It was tough, but I haven’t looked back.
That's a good question!
It looks like a lot, and I'm even sure I forgot some stuff too. I'm trying to learn as much as I can every seconds of my life.
Now, I know when to stop learning as well but, even so, I have the impression I always learn something; even by only thinking.
It's more a game than a chore to me, and it makes me happy! This is the ultimate result I seek. Other than that, the process is more important to me.
Right now:
Love what you're doing! I've taken the AWS SA exam, and the Developer exam as well. Can't recommend A Cloud Guru or Whizlabs enough - both great resources.
Thanks James. The A Cloud Guru course is the one I am taking for AWS.
I would love to hear more about how you are improving your marketing and copywriting skills. That is an area I am struggling in as well.
