Welcome To Weekend Developer

This substack is for all the weekend developers out there who want to be a professional software developer.

You want to use your passion for technology to develop some real-world applications that real users use.

You want to work in a creative problem-solving job and come away at the end of the day happy and satisfied with the problems you are solving.

1. Why this, why now

This substack will provide a healthy dose of motivation along with tips and tricks that will help with your software engineering journey.

The articles will give you a gentle nudge to get back on your career goal and will help you with your journey to becoming a professional software developer.

2. What kind of community will this newsletter serve?

This is for all passionate techies who are working to be professional software developers.

People already with software development experience can chime in to help others.

I am building this community to get the support that I never had when I started.

3. When will new articles be published?

As the name suggests, this publication is for people working on weekends. So the newsletter will be published on Fridays so that it gives some tips and nudges to make the weekend useful.

4. What about a paywall?

Most articles will not be behind the paywall. So you do not need to be a paying member to receive the articles. But being a coffee drinker, buy me a coffee if you liked reading an article.

5. What else?

If you are serious about getting results fast or if you have any specific questions, chime in the comments and I will reach out to you. Everyone else - Subscribe

PS: This is a work of love. So quoting W.B. Yates.

Text within this block will maintain its original spacing when published

Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
 - W.B. Yates
