How to succeed in Web Dev

Coding is a different mindset—and will be difficult for most

• Attend every class & lab
• Do all the work
• Put in the effort
• Watch the videos before class
• Use the resources available: teachers, TAs, lab time
• Always ask for help

You will struggle & fail*

*Fail in the make mistakes sense, not in the fail the course sense

• It’s okay to struggle
• It’s to make mistakes & have to start over
• It’s okay to need help

Some of the best learning comes from failure

Getting help

TAs in class — to help answer questions

Open lab time — get help outside class

GitHub Issues — help outside class
