Asked By TechNerd98 On

I used to work as a full stack developer at Blackrock, focusing on web apps with AngularJS and TypeScript. Unfortunately, I've been on disability for the past five years due to health issues requiring multiple surgeries. While I'm not currently able to work, I want to keep my coding skills fresh, especially since I plan to return to software development if my health improves. Are there any online courses or resources that I can use to stay updated in coding?

You might want to check out an MS in Computer Science program like the one offered by the University of Colorado Boulder on Coursera. You can access all the course content except for finals with just a subscription, which is very affordable—around $400 a year. This way, you can learn at your own pace and dive into the material without the pressure of deadlines right now.

There are tons of online courses on Udemy that could work for you! I suggest figuring out what specific area of development you're most interested in and tailor your courses accordingly. It's often better to have meaningful projects on your GitHub than just completing courses. Maybe start with a comprehensive course to refresh your skills, then jump into a project that showcases what you've learned.
