OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode, we speak with Chris Ferdinandi. Chris helps people learn vanilla JavaScript at gomakethings.com, and believes there’s a simpler, more resilient way to make things for the web. His developer tips newsletter is read by thousands of developers each weekday.
Chris and I talked about his journey, how to make a career transition to web development, how Chris found his niche in vanilla JS and ended up working for himself, and much more. Enjoy!
