Web Development Checklist

This is a list of basic objectives to meet on the road to mastering web development.

It is an almost exact copy of Ginny Fahs' "Things Real Developers Do: My Bucket List"

• Open the computer’s terminal
• Use a text editor (bonus points if you have a specific reason for choosing it)
• Use some keyboard shortcuts
• Write tests for your code
• Help another web developer with something they’re having trouble with
• Attend an event about web development
• Follow developers you admire on social media
• Read a book about coding
• Open your browser console
• Get data from an API
• Hide API keys from the public
• Post a question on Stack Overflow
• Push code to GitHub or GitLab or BitBucket
• Speak about something web development-related at an event
• Complete a technical interview
• Participate in a hackathon
• Deploy a project
• Ship your project to a store
• Contribute to open source
• Get paid to code
• When people ask what you do, respond saying you’re a developer :)

If you find this useful for your own needs you are welcome to fork a copy, customise it or even give it a star :)

You can follow me on Twitter or get in touch
