Developing Without A Degree

With Web Development, being the subject in this context, the key to saving a lot of time, money, and stress is simply learning to code. I know how it may sound, contradictory of course to the term used to pertain to it, especially for those like me who don’t have a computer science degree. But chances are that your business has a website and that website will need lots of updates and maintenance.



Investing the time to gain even a basic knowledge of coding will be extremely beneficial. Not only will you be able to communicate your needs more effectively to developers and get better and more efficient results, but you’ll be more self sufficient. Plus, being able to make small tweaks on your own, rather than having to hire a developer will save you a lot of money in the long run.

Of course, we are all different. Wired differently in the head, see and process things different from each other and there’s a lot more factors to consider, so I wouldn’t even push my personal process on how I got to point B. But, by general logic and common sense, there are ways that you can be a developer too, even with consideration to the general issues of time and money. Here are some great online programs thaat you can get into and soon enough you’ll be churning out expert code and start making those quotes on html.

First, Coursera. Courses here are taught by professors from 62 top universities, and are offered in five different languages. And it’s free. 

Second, Codecademy. A simple platform that uses relevant examples so you can easily apply what you learn. Perfect for those type of people who absorb information better by experience. And of course, those who want to learn the basics in a hurry.

Third, Khan Academy. This learning hub’s tutorials are actually based on learning through exploration, rather than guided lessons. So you need to communicate with other users to learn even more from their discoveries and mistakes.


And you can always do drag and drop type of site builders. And learn bit by bit as you go.
