Want a career as a software engineer? Don’t want to spend years or the money going to school? Have to write code for your current job? The lessons in this book are all things author Tommy Chheng learned are vital to developers during his career.
The idea of the self-taught developer is becoming commonplace out of necessity. Having programming skills will inevitably help you in your future career even if your goal is not to become a full-time developer. This book will not be your only source for learning to program. Throughout this book, I will reference many other sources which I encourage you to explore. I wrote this book to supplement the self-taught developer with useful information from work experience as well as the practical bits of computer science classes in a traditional university.
Who is this book for?
You could be:
- The biologist who needs to learn enough programming to analyze your data.
- The MBA graduate who has a startup idea.
- The career switcher who wants a programming job.
- The college student struggling with the dry university computer science classes.
This book just assumes you have a desire to learn programming and perhaps you have already started learning. On a minor note, I will be using the terms programmer, developer and software engineer interchangeably. There are some subtle differences around these terms but for the purposes of this book, assume they are the same.
This book will teach you:
- What tools you will need
- How to ask the right questions
- How to solve a programming problem
- The important Computer Science topics
- How to get hired
Tommy Chheng is currently the Sr Engineering Manager of the Identity team at Wework. He has in-depth experience in the software industry at all levels from startups to large companies. He has also served as a technical consultant for HBO's Silicon Valley.
Tommy is excited to see how this book encourages the next generation of developers.
