Hello everyone! My name is Luz and I'm from Argentina!
I joined this challenge (and many courses & online resources) to hopefully get a reasonable grasp on HTML + CSS + JS that might land me a better job. I've been working for almost 10 years in a field I don't like (tourism) for a mediocre salary and no growth opportunities whatsoever, so I decided enough was enough and I needed to make a change. Going back to IT seemed only natural, as I worked in QC/QA before and I had a blast!
My overall goals are to learn enough in the web dev field to get a better job with growth prospects and maybe being able to do side jobs through Fiverr or similar platforms.
I've chosen front end development languages because they seem easy to start with and in great demand, but I'm not excluding the possibility of moving to another language further down the line. I'm not in a rush as I already have a job, so I can take a well thought out approach.
Thank you for reading, and happy coding!
