When 2020 started, I began to learn SEO and content marketing. I am currently working on helping bring commercial cleaning to the 21st century at getonedesk.com. On the side, I'm learning React Js at home while working on growing a loyal audience.

Being a web developer is difficult, stressful, confusing, and exhausting. But, it's also very exciting, interesting, and meaningful. I've learned many lessons during my journey of becoming a web developer at a young age. Here are 20 lessons I learned that will help you be a better web developer and more successful in life in general.

Honestly if your 15 years old, you should be doing something more social with your time. I'm sorry this is cringeworthy. Why? Well, your personality and brain are still in development. Spend that time developing yourself as a person, increasing social skills, and doing shit outside. PLEASE!

Hi, Josh.

You have a typo on the "Write For Us" page: "get our of" should be "get out of". A spellcheck against each page in your navigation bar did not turn up any misspellings -- though that wouldn't have caught "our/out."

Best of luck out there. If you're this entrepreneurial at 15, your life is going to be just fine.

Wait are you 15 years old or have you been a web developer for 15 years? Impressive insight for a 15 year old if so, I know a few people who have been web devs for 15 years who still haven't figured some of those out.

Not necessarily, no guarantees in this life.
