Therefore, it is important to know what potential employers are looking for to ensure you are prioritizing the right tasks and opportunities.

One of the key factors is regular commits on Github, which shows that you are just as passionate about coding as you claim to be.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Starting your career as a junior developer is very exciting, but it can also be overwhelming. A post on Hello Dev World from last week outlines <a href="https://hellodevworld.com/misc/what-you-should-do-as-a-junior-developer" target="_blank">some things you can do to improve as a junior developer</a>.

Wednesday Wisdom | Fullstack Development Trends, Responsive CSS Frameworks, and State of Design in 2021
<p>Today is January 27, 2021, and for this Wednesday Wisdom episode we're covering:</p> <ul> <li>Fullstack Development Trends</li> <li>Responsive CSS Frameworks</li> <li>State of Design in 2021</li> </ul> <p>Let's dive in!</p> <p>----</p> <p>Fullstack development has moved from rarity to commonplace over the past few years. In 2021 it is easier than ever to be a fullstack developer simply because of all of the tools available. A recent post on noupe.com highlights the <a href="https://www.noupe.com/development/fullstack-development-trends-to-follow-in-2021.html" target="_blank">top 7 fullstack development trends to follow In 2021</a>. It provides a stellar prediction of what to expect as the industry progresses this year and might even give you some ideas on new skills to learn.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Love 'em or hate 'em, CSS frameworks have become an integral part of web design and development. There are many out there, each with its own cult following, so Super Dev Resources has published a list of the <a href="https://superdevresources.com/responsive-css-frameworks/" target="_blank">15 best responsive CSS frameworks for web design in 2021</a>. Unsurprisingly, Bootstrap and Tailwind topped the list, but check out some of the others if you are looking for an alternative or have never used a framework before.</p> <p>----</p> <p>The design field is always changing and evolving so it's important to assess what happened last year to predict changes this year. Luckily, Abstract has done all of the hard work for us with their <a href="https://www.abstract.design/state-of-design" target="_blank">State of Design in 2021</a>. Besides the beautiful design and interface of the website, there are several key points that are thoroughly elaborated on with charts, data, and research. A couple of the top ones are the necessity for better ways to measure impact and the pain points of design collaboration.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Want to know more?

Tuesday Tips | How to Setup Your M1 MacBook for Web Development
<p>Today is January 26, 2021, and for this Tuesday Tips episode we're covering How to Setup Your M1 MacBook for Web Development</p> <p>Let's dive in!</p> <p>----</p> <p>The worst part (or perhaps the most fun for some) of getting a new laptop is setting up everything you need as a web developer. Adding programs and tools that you had installed over the many years of ownership of your previous laptop can seem daunting. With the release of the new Macbook M1 laptops, there are some interesting new considerations as well that you may not be aware of. So, let's jump in and get the basics set up so you can hit the ground running developing your next project.</p> <p>----</p> <p>The first thing you should install is <a href="https://developer.apple.com/documentation/apple_silicon/about_the_rosetta_translation_environment" target="_blank">Rosetta 2</a>, which allows you to run Intel-based software on the new ARM chip. Because Apple has created their own chips they needed a way to provide backward compatibility with programs that do not yet support ARM and Rosetta 2 is that solution.</p> <p>----</p> <p><a href="https://brew.sh/" target="_blank">Homebrew</a> will be the best way to add the other software and tools on our computer, so we want to install that next. A quick tip that is good to know is when you go to open the built-in Terminal in the Applications folder: right-click, select Get Info, and check the Open with Rosetta box.</p> <p>----</p> <p>There are a lot of tools to consider when setting up your Macbook from scratch, so one of the quickest ways to add a lot of the important ones is to use a script. I recommend <a href="https://github.com/CxGarcia/setup" target="_blank">the script created by the author</a> of the original post that this is based on, but feel free to use a different one or modify this one for yourself.</p> <p>Opening the download script folder in your terminal you can choose to run the install script or modify what will be installed from the brew-installs.sh file. Once you're satisfied, run the script.</p> <p>Some of the tools and applications included in the script are:</p> <ul> <li>MongoDB</li> <li>node</li> <li>git</li> <li>zsh</li> <li>Firefox</li> <li>Chrome</li> <li>VSCode</li> <li>Zoom</li> <li>Slack</li> <li>Discord</li> <li>Notion</li> <li>and more...</li> </ul> <p>----</p> <p>Something that is not included in the script is <a href="https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm" target="_blank">nvm</a> because there have been difficulties installing this with the ARM chip. To get around this you will have to use a curl command and make a couple of modifications afterward.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Git was installed with the brew install script so make sure to configure the settings and <a href="https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token" target="_blank">use a personal access token to authenticate GitHub</a>.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Make sure to use the <a href="https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Shan.code-settings-sync" target="_blank">Settings Sync plugin</a> to keep all of your VSCode settings in sync with a stored GitHub gist.</p> <p>----</p> <p>You should now be all set to start developing! Thanks to the script many tools and applications were installed for us, minimizing the manual install process.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Today’s Tuesday Tips was adapted from <a href="https://blog.logrocket.com/set-up-macbook-for-web-development-in-20-minutes/" target="_blank">a post on the Logrocket blog</a>.</p> <p>----</p> <p>Want to know more?
