As I am starting to relearn C#, I thought why not share some links that have helped me in the past and what new ones I will be using this time to learn! I already made a similar resource post (post 1 | post 2) for C# in the past but why not a new one? 🤗

I'm thrilled to share that I recently completed the SheCodes Basic workshop and earned my certificate! 🎉 This immersive online program provided such a great introduction to web development concepts and skills.
Over the workshop, I gained so much useful knowledge about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The hands-on coding challenges let me apply what I was learning in a practical way. I'm proud of all the web pages, interactions and animations I coded from scratch!
I'll be starting the SheCodes Plus where we'll dive deeper into HTML. CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap and more! Although I still can't decide if I want to be a Frontend Developer or go the Fullstack way😑.
I've created a course to take you from zero coding experience through to understanding the basics of writing code in C#. No previous experience required! And if you know some other languages already, this is still a great opportunity to get into C#.
Get this course!
I completed my first ever technical interview! I was super nervous I was getting things wrong and I knew I was.
A technical interview (sometimes nicknamed a coding or programming interview) is a technical problem-based job interview just to assess the interviewee's coding/programming skills.
In my interview, I had to use C# and figure out how to check the number of variants a string of letters can make a proper word in order. It was hard but it was a great challenge. It also included pair-programming, where one of the company's developer helped me on the question.
They had to perform manual tests to check if my code worked and I focused on getting at least the first 2 tests a PASS and I did, I was really proud of myself. I told them I couldn't figure out how to do the other three, since I already spent too much time on the first two.
Then they went on to ask me technical questions like "What is the process of Software Development?" and I just answered with the SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle). Other questions like "What is the difference between .NEt Core and .NET (framework)?" Then they asked personal questions like what are my hobbies and what is my favourite website design and I mentioned POCO X4 GT official website for the phone because of the animation and colours.
And that was it! They said we would get the results of who got the job by the end of the day or tomorrow but I won't be too bummed if I didn't get it, I really wanted the technical interview experience, especially with pair-programming! I'll see how it goes!
