Pros

  • • Great job if you enjoy making things and solving problems 
  • • Tons of free resources to learn web development (Code Academy, YouTube) - you can essentially learn any language you want to

Cons

  • • You'll never stop learning - web dev is one of the most rapidly evolving fields, so you're going to need to constantly educate yourself and upkeep your skills
  • • Learning progress is very slow as it's a very complex field, so it may take months to grasp a new concept
  • • Very hard job, definitely not for everyone - risk of burnout, mental health issues, stress
