hey guys how you doing so somebody asked me how do you become a web developer in 2025 what do you do it's actually pretty simple two things number one you learn your fundamentals the fundamentals of web design development are HTML 5 CSS3 JavaScript then I will learn PHP for backend and then you put up a website and then you get going so the next question they had is can you jump right into freelancing on freelance sites and otherwise if you only know your fundamentals short answer is yes you start off with two to three small
projects learn on the job learn to get paid your first job maybe it's for free maybe your first two jobs little jobs little contract little contracts are for free why because you got to look at the first two projects as the last stage of learning because doing tutorials is not it only prepares you for the real game it's kind of like in combat sports uh doing uh shadow boxing or forms is not really fighting doing pad work is not really fighting you actually have to spar you have to you have to do the thing the
real thing so when you start your first projects in development whether it be web development or otherwise they have to be easy projects so your first web development project could be as simple as putting up somebody's WordPress site modifying their WordPress site putting up a Wix site putting up their Squarespace site configuring their Shopify doesn't really matter the point is is learned how to get a project interact with the clients complete the project get it done it's going to teach you so much so much the final question of course is AI should you use AI
100% you should use AI as you learn because it will help you get to answers more quickly write the code you got to write the code writing code by the way is going to train your brain like lifting weights trains your brain so you got to write the code but you can use AI and you should use AI to help you out now if you're using my interactive training program which I developed for uh over many years working with many many many schools it's going to supercharge the training of the fundamentals you learn the fundamentals
so quick you have no idea what happened actually the whole point of learning fundamentals quickly is you'll know exactly what's happening so quick people are always surprised at how quickly they learn with my interactive platform I developed my own platform for education again I didn't come up with the whole thing out of my head i had a team and I worked with lots of schools who gave me feedback so uh it's it's been tested in the real world so you do the fundamental courses uh with my stuff you do with it the HTML 5 CSS3
and the JavaScript then at that point I'd say start jumping into GPT chat GPT or whatever AI you want to use and then you start interacting with it doing projects writing code building things this could all be done in you know maybe 250 hours of work so you can decide if you're going to do an hour a day or two hours a day whatever you want i have a recommendation when you're learning anything new you don't want to go too hard it's like late weightlifting if you train every day weightlifting you're just going to burn
yourself you have to give your body time to rest in between training sessions same thing with learning i recommend uh four days a week five max uh 20 minutes minimum maximum four hours a day of learning this is going to maximize the learning process so let's say you do Monday Tuesday take Wednesday off do Thursday Friday take Saturday Sunday off then do Monday that kind of thing you do that and on days for examples where you don't feel like learning or coding just do 20 minutes just do 20 minutes the great thing about my studio
web program is that it encourages learning because it remembers where you were and the video lessons are very short and after every lesson you write a little code and the system evaluates your code test you okay now you're right wrong you can get hints or it's theoretical as well trust me you'll learn quickly this is the process basically in a nutshell you want to learn so I have my self-paced courses you go you know it's very inexpensive learn on your own fantastic or if you want the full program with the training and the career training
and how to start freelance business i got my mentoring program which you can check out below as well uh that's it i hope that helps so learning web design and web development in 2025 that's the process those are the few steps it's worth it trust me don't let the current uh I'm recording this in April April 7th 2025 don't let the current volatility uh throw you off volatility like this in the market i've seen it several times in my career i've been writing code since the 90s and uh I've seen this before it's a good
thing because once we get through this maybe six months maybe a little longer it's hard to say but once we get through this it's going to be huge opportunity and the opportunity going forward is going to be webstack but modified web stack modified web stack i mean there's going to be a lot of opportunities for freelancers SAS developers leveraging AI tools leveraging no code and low code platforms Wix WordPress so why do you want to leverage these things this new layer of abstraction that speeds up the development process in ways uh that are fantastic which
means we're just going to write more software better software in quick time and if you leverage this with good workflows you're going to make a lot of money that's it anyway let me know what you think let me know what Let me know what you think links below um I'll leave you with one last comment there's no good language or bad language out there there's no good framework or bad framework it all depends on the job so there's plenty of people making lots of money with Java and C um everything except Ruby okay even Ruby
guys are making a lot of money so and uh doesn't really matter once you learn how to code you learn how to code once you learn how to drive a power a super powerful car for example you know how to drive a super powerful car once you understand grappling you're a grappler you know anyway I hope that helps cheers
