I don't know if it's possible to get a good answer to this but: if you learned how to make websites with, like, users who can login and do things where the website stores stuff in a database, without doing it as a job, how did you do it?
I feel like in principle I know all of the basic pieces (HTTP, HTML, CSS, SQL, CORS, various programming languages, etc), but also somehow it still feels extremely hard to me
(no more replies please there are enough)
@b0rk Back in 2006ish a friend sent me a book called "Building websites with PHP4 and MySQL" (or something along those lines). And I started building. I didn't have a job so I built something that a friend needed. I learned things along the way, like proper indexing of DB tables, etc... It's always felt hard, and it's still hard, but sticking to the most mainstream technologies and not getting lured by shiny objects is a sure way to make things easier.
