Can You Have a Career in Web Development?
About this episode
On this episode of HTML All The Things, we dive into a Reddit thread where a retail worker-turned-student wonders if pursuing web development is still a smart career move. From market saturation and AI tools taking over entry-level tasks, to alternative tech paths and freelancing, we unpack the tough realities and bright possibilities facing new developers today.
If you’ve been questioning whether coding is still worth the grind—or if your portfolio is enough to land that first job—this conversation is for you.
