As a beginner, I felt completely overwhelmed in the world of web development and frankly was too inexperienced to even know where or how to get started. This book is the answer!
Angel does an amazing job balancing content, practical exercises, and direction for those interested in becoming a Full-stack, Frontend or Backend web developer. A must read, and total time-saver, for those just starting out!!

A wonderful introduction to the basics of front end development. I could have really used this book when I was starting to transition into technology and coding websites on my own without a technical background.
While reading "How to Become a Web Developer", every time I came to something that I mentally flagged as being confusing to a novice, Angel, without fail, answered or defined it within a paragraph or two.
This book seems to anticipate your confusion and explains technical topics with just the right amount of details. This book should be your first read if you are considering web development as a new career.

How to Become A Web Developer will save you time and heartache as you begin your journey as a web developer. The internet is filled with companies offering ‘click, drag and drop’ website creation tools, but the limits of these tools quickly become apparent.
True web development requires knowledge of the concepts underpinning today’s interactive web-sites. These concepts are explored and coupled with straightforward examples that help the beginner build a solid foundation.

“Where would I even begin?” is a question I hear often, and is brilliantly answered here by Angel. Every developer has a unique story about how they got started, their early challenges, and all the changes along the way.
This book breaks down those daunting barriers and helps turn interest into action. Even for the seasoned professional, these early concepts are never too distant and always relevant in the ever-changing world of web development.

This is a fantastic intro for anyone looking to learn programming. This is a book I wish I had when I was teaching myself web development. Angel does a great job at explaining concepts that beginners get stuck on and tutorials usually skip over.

As a graduate student, I really have to make the most of my time. I was so glad (grateful, relieved, take your pick) to discover this book.
Angel has a way of breaking down concepts that make them easy to understand. I found her writing style is very engaging, unlike much of the other beginner programmer literature I’ve encountered.
I was intimidated at first since my knowledge base in this area was limited, but this book speaks to the lay-person and has helped me enter this area of my career with new-found enthusiasm and confidence. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting a solid start in the world of programming.
