15 Web Developer-Related Career Paths 

Brad, I haven't watched a video in some time but I wanted to leave a comment to tell you about your impact on my life. I was hopeless at 20/21, doing drugs, hopeless job, etc. I had always been into hosting game servers for the boys and modding games and decided to try software as a career path. I took your "Fundamentals of Javascript" course around 2018. It gave me the foundation to build the rest of my accomplishments on. Your way of teaching was amazing for someone just coming into the sphere. In the years since then I've completed my BS in Computer Science and have been working as an engineer for nearly 2 years in the ML infra space. Thank you Brad.

Started watching your videos back to 2017 during my internship, landed a software developer job on 2022. Now using those money to pay my bills and treat my loved ones. Thank you for your huge impact on my life, Brad! Good to see you are doing great and hopefully your son is doing great as well! Sorry I couldn't watch your videos anymore, having a job really took a toll on my time. 😅

Hey Brad, I've been working as a developer at a company for two years now. I used one of your Udemy courses to supplement my CS degree back before I got hired and it was an integral part in building a solid web dev skillset, as web development isn't really covered in most CS degrees (unfortunately). Over the last two years at my company we've gone completely 'serverless' (ie we use lambda functions for everything) and from what I've heard this is the direction most other engineering departments are going. Because of this I've started to feel that the current RU-vid web dev tutorial landscape has fallen a bit behind the times, with most videos still heavily emphasizing the differences between frontend and backend development, the importance of gaining full-stack development skills etc, even though these terms are becoming increasingly vague as more and more companies rely on cloud based architectures (as you mentioned at the start of the video). Anyway, my point here is that what makes your channel great is that you really do keep your finger on the pulse for industry changes like this and update your content accordingly. It would be easy enough to just crank out another frontend course or whatever, but instead you take the time to actually look into what's going on in the industry technology wise. This is why even after being employed for two years I still check back in on your channel to check out the new content. Anyway, sorry for the rambling comment, but your channel really is second to none, so keep up the great work!

Haven’t watched the video yet but I already appreciate it. You never see such a breakdown of different roles under the umbrella

Thank you, Brad; this video really helped me understand what to focus on. It has been a year of unemployment for me. Looking at the minimum requirement for each position and trying to learn everything is like swimming in the ocean without seeing a shore.

Hi Brad, A massive thank you for giving valuable content to the community. This helps a lot because the field is so huge that confused about where we should go or choose. Years ago web master was enough to know...

I really loves this dude's videos, and get happy when he uploads a new one, they're just clean, honest and to the point!

Very helpful Brad! Much thanks man. As always, you always deliver helpful advice to many developers whatever type of specialisation they do. 👍🏻👍🏻

This video couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks for sharing Brad.

Thank you for this video! It made web development less overwhelming.

As always you're explanations very clear. This is the best carer path explanation I have watched recently.

Thank you Brad. This video will be a guide for my up coming training and carrier adjustments. And it came in at a such perfect time thats unbelivable. Thanks again. Keep up the good work.

You read my mind, past 2 weeks I'm totally confused jumping between all those roles by myself. Got some clarity now. Thanks again :)

Hello Brad, I just wanted to express my gratitude. I've been working as a software engineer for the past two years, and your tutorials played a significant role in getting me where I am today. Sending love from the Philippines!

Most of the skills i learned for web development was through your courses. Big up Brad.

Perfect explanation and road map for new developers. I've already choosen SPA or Front end developing. as you mentioned it is best to master in one of them at first.

Outstanding content! Thanks Brad.

What an incredible overview! thanks for this. I also had good experiences in the past with Phaser for a more lightweight/native web game framework.

This is such a crucial piece of information to understand, thanks a lot.

Very helpful advice and great video as always! Love to watch your videos. Thanks for inspiring!

Professional reliable and honest explanation.

Thank you great as always when i first started to learn about web and web development coming from a graphic design background i was so overwhelmed by the massive amount of data that i to learn and i was slow and scared about not being able to find my way, until i found your courses on Udemy i tried the 50 days 50 projects soon i figured out that i can connect so good with your method of teaching because they are project based and started from the beginning of HTML and Javascript on the way of going to learn react soon, thanks a bunch 🙏🏻

Thanks Brad

Thank you, great videos :)

Thank you ☺️

Great video !! 😊

list Career is great, thank you so much

My major is banking economy & finance but I headed against empty wall, so i decided to turn my destiny. I had started working web developer in 2017. My first internet guide was you!

Awesome video bro

Thank you Brad

Thank you.

Great stuff

This is a very useful video.

You can also go the QA route or Business Analist or Data engineer.

God bless you Brad ❤❤

That was really good video

i really appreciate your educational videos have helped me a lot most especially the 4 hours long laravel course (laragigs). And i have a request for a livewire and laravel crash course

This is really informative Brad. Very explicit. I was however expecting to see Cyber security in the list but unfortunately not. Please I would like you to shed light on where Cyber security lies. Thanks and thumb up.

this is some million-dollar advice. I've been swimming the entire ocean trying to know a little of everything, I will now focus more on one thing and be a master in in first.

Holy shit Brad, I haven't seen a video of yours in months and you are looking so healthy and slim bro, you've lost a shit ton of weight! Keep up the good work with your channel and your health!

Hey Brad, great video. Can you also make a similar video for C++ developers?

Its a very good guideline. You have missed one example that is Browser Extension.

Now the same for data-related career paths please? 😉 Seriously, amazing work! Thanks

it is good idea to learn some specific technologies desired, I thought the same way at the beginning, but when I try to apply for internship or entry level developer position jobs, there are lots of technologies we should aware as their job descriptions mention, I think before choose which technologies to learn or master, we should consider what the industry is asking for. I am just sharing my ideas.

It’s always good to hear what you say Brad. Good to hear your opinion 😊

After 25 years as an enterprise Java developer this video is helpful to discovering the next phase of my journey! The need for work/life balance made it difficult to learn new technology when the 45+ hour week only allowed for "real work", meetings, soft-skills training and time management. I'm currently like a kid in the toy store learning React, Node, Docker and thinking about training to get certified as a "Secure Software Lifecycle Professional". Oy! This video shows you that to be successful you need to choose a path you can stick to.

Mobile app course would be awesome!

Every year brad upload a video about tech industry roundup. so this year it is now I am watching. oh yeah I just checked Brad already uplaoded that video titled web development overview 2023. I will watch.

Great Video. It would have been nice if you had included ''Product Owner'' as well.

Guruji looking healthy. Love from Bangladesh. ❤❤

Such an insightful Topic ❤

just want to let you know, i got my first job just by watching your videos and practicing

Very cool

I thought a backend developer is already responsible for microservice and that chatbot thing as well. I never knew about that, Thanks🌸

Could you explain again why static site generators allow you to build faster?

Please make a backend focused course.

passionate about Frontend dev :p
