A Dentist Turned Software Developer: How to switch careers
summary
A self-taught switch story that claims landing a frontend role is practical: learns HTML CSS JavaScript and React, Redux, TypeScript, builds many small projects, keeps a GitHub habit with daily pushes and GitHub green boxes, uses Twitter communities for motivation, negotiates a paid internship, converts it into a first job at AUTO1 Group, and cycles through denial, imposter syndrome and acceptance while iterating until things work.
