An article about my career Hi! I want to start a blog on Medium about my career and my daily professional life, and for my first article, I wrote this: ** can someone help me on grammar and improvements? Thanks =) The path of a non-convectional Developer (part 1) --- I didn't know how to start this developer's blog or even doing it in English, which it isn't my first language. I'm a Brazilian girl, who graduated in Graphic Design. So, in my first years as a front developer I always thought that I will never be a ninja like most developers. And today, I'm still not a ninja, but courage and focus are my strength. In this 5 years as developer, I learned a lot about commitment and self-dedication. I'm in the web since I was 12 years old! I used to sell templates made with XHTML and CSS in FrontPage and later in Wordpress, crazy times! After that, my love for websites just grown, and since 2013 I'm a Front End Developer, wow! In the college, I didn't learn about programming logic, advanced math or compilers (?). My college was about UX, UI, Product Design, etc. I don't have the "gift" that most developers have to solve easily difficult logic problems... but I always have been determined to learn by myself, because since I was little I loved to do websites and blogs for other people. Back in time most of people in the web had a blog/site in Blogspot, Tumblr or Wordpress. I used to have a template shop, which the people did requests of templates and some graphic media! So, most of my adolescence, I was playing with XHTML (!!WOW!!), CSS and Macromedia Fireworks (old times, am I right?!!?), and was great! I really love them until today! I always excited to write HTML and CSS, they are my passion! The years have passed, and in 2012 I graduated in college and I was certain that I would work in some agency doing the UI/UX of websites. It did work for 1 year and a half, but then, I met the js in the company that I started to work, and my world changed! In college I learned ZERO js, so frustrated, I didn't have any base! I started study alone reading articles, buying books, watching videos and doing online courses. It was hard, as I said, I didn't have the "feeling" for programming that most software developers who graduated in Computer Science have... My husband is one of them, he helped me and taught me a lot. Actually, until today he still helps me in advanced programming logic and some crazy issues, haha! ... continue. --- I published the part 2 in my next notebook =) kisses!

My experience with web The web technologies are increasing day after day, i work with web development since 2012 and since that time a lot of things changed. I used to implement websites in old, and now deprecated, softwares like adobe dreamweaver, frontPage, etc. Nowadays we program webpages with a few lines on a wordpad++ or Sublime... They are editor softwares, and they are very useful for our job. With constant growing of digital companies, our area it is increasing very fast. There are many companies searching employees like designers, front end, back end, senior developers, etc. I love web technologies since i was 12. I started in this area making templates for girls's blogs that i met online, or in games, chats, etc. In that time it was very common to have a blog, everyone wanted the online diary. Almost every blog was about a person's day, or dreams, goals, tutorials, etc. It was a great time to start in internet.
