                    The journey has started on 15th May. I have learned a lot that I did not know. I have developed self learning ability. Starting from building a resume to ultimate free tools for freelancers, the learning curve increased. The course is making me strong from the basics.  From the common course I have gained a lot of general awareness about things across different domains.

Things that I have learned from the common course are:

  • Building a Resume
  • Different  Web Development Technologies
  • Different Chrome Extensions
  • Different Automation Tools for
    Different Purposes
  • Free sources that help
    freelancers
  • Alternative tools for Photoshop
  • Tools for Screen Recording
  • Tools for creating Gif’s
  • Websites that help finding
    quality jobs and many more.

As a part of my learning I have also tried implementing few things from what I have learnt.

         As a part of implementation, I did the below mentioned.

  • I have edited an image using the Photoshop alternative PIXLR.

  • I have created a Gif using imgur.com/vidgif resource.

The link for the Gif is https://imgur.com/7NM400e

  • Using Fotojet, I have designed a Web Marketing poster.

  • I have used Zapier to automate the process of saving a draft in my email whenever a new media post is added to my Instagram account.  

  • I have created a small calculator using Emmet for Brackets.

This really helped me code fast.

As i have already mentioned, from nothing to something the learning has increased greatly. 

The journey continues…

Thank you.
