Building a job-ready portfolio of coding projects doesn’t happen overnight, but if you’re like most self-taught developers, you’ve likely built up a nice collection of todo apps, calculators, and other toy programs.
Round float and format to string 🔗 If you’re rounding a floating point number in Go, it’s most likely you want to format it in a string.

The short answer? On average, backend developers make either $82,462, $95,472, or $104,865 per year in base pay depending on who you ask.
I’m really interested in the trends we see in the software engineering job market. Sometimes it’s really hard to tell a cohesive and accurate narrative about what’s happening because it just happens so dang fast, and very few people are collecting data on the matter.
During development you may sometimes notice you run a lot of commands to set up, build, test, and manage your project.
Want to become a backend developer? Not surprising. Backend developers enjoy an average base salary of $160k per year, not to mention comprehensive benefits.
Functions are one of the most versatile tools in any Python programmer’s toolbox. They enable code reuse and provide a form of abstraction.
So you want to get into web development, and you keep hearing about “front-end” and “back-end” positions.

It’s time for some speculation on my part 🔗 I believe that the job duties of “back-end” and “DevOps” engineers will coalesce to include almost everything that “the user doesn’t see”.
DevOps principles, and CI/CD specifically, are generally presented as a more efficient way to run a software development organization.
The sexiest job title of the decade, data scientist, has spawned about a dozen equally sexy but somewhat confusing and overlapping job titles.
I think we often do a great job of flogging the dead horse of whiteboarding problems when giving coding interview advice.
I’m happy to announce that today we launched our new Learn SQL course! It was a ton of fun to write, but I also had a blast building the back-end infrastructure that allows students to write and execute SQL in the browser.
Vim or VS Code? Tabs or spaces? Rails or Django? The world of programming is fraught with decisions to be made.
“DevOps” is one of the most misunderstood terms in the software development industry. To be clear, I’m not the arbiter of truth when it comes to the definitions of words.
At work, computer scientists build and deploy programs, algorithms, and systems to solve real-world problems. In most tech jobs, they spend the majority of their time working in teams on new software products.
I get really frustrated when I see people and companies online selling unrealistic dreams when it comes to coding education.
I recently spent far too long fighting with Vue’s keyup and keydown functionality while building Boot.
