Hey everyone! This is my first time posting here, and I just want to say I'm sorry if my English isn't perfect—it's not my first language!
I've noticed some senior devs have been expressing concerns about junior developers not having a solid foundation, which can lead to issues in projects and delays for the whole team.
What would you recommend as the best tips for someone just starting out in development?

First off, absorb everything like a sponge! Don't take constructive criticism personally; see it as a pathway to grow. It's totally fine to say 'I don't know' as long as you follow up with a willingness to learn what you need. Make sure you understand your operating system, editor, git, and the fundamentals of the language you're working with—in this case, don’t just rely on frameworks.
These tips are solid! I’ll definitely keep this in mind.
