Advent of Code really brought back those feelings when you're tinkering with code just for fun.

Really fun experience.

3-figure and low 4-figure projects is where the money is.

You finish within 2-3 days and you get the money right away.

So, if you get a 5+ figure project, define milestones to get the money faster and for the client to get a feel of progress.

The Dune: Prophecy series is just a merge of Game of Thrones & Star Wars.

Courses/Tutorials should not be used as the only learning resource.

View them more as guides after you get the basics.

The best education is to build something.

Even if it's just a js slider library. You'll learn a ton.

How did you earn your first money on the internet?

I created a Dropbox WordPress Plugin and sold it through CodeCanyon.

Tbh, back then, I didn't even know what I was doing. I knew how to upload a file, but didn't know how to work with APIs.

So used a file from a tutorial to upload to Dropbox :D

PHP is not dead.

WordPress is not bad.

Laravel is great.

So is JavaScript.

Use what you know best & what will help your client the most (or your product).
