The Mycelium Network Podcast

Navigating a Self-Taught Path in Web Development - Rico Smit

In our first episode, we talk to Rico Smit—an early-stage web developer living and working in Pretoria, South Africa. We discuss various topics, from the challenges faced by new learners, starting a business, finding learning material, and the importance of community. We also touch on contributing to open-source and feeling more comfortable interacting in public.
