About This Project
Bootcamp was created in early 2023 and contains everything I
learned through my journey as a freelance dev. I started
programming in 2020 with a few months of experience as a dev
looked for a job and was struggling to get one which made me try
selling programming services online to my surprise I've gotten
to earning over $5,000 monthly in less than a year and
kickstarted my career as developer. You can find me selling
online under the pseudonym Voxvici.
How to learn from this
Curriculum is divided into steps it should take you around 3
months to complete it. It has video, text and tasks to complete
as you advance through curriculum.
