Start Here: Web Development Dain Miller & StartHere.FM

I’ve just recently found Start Here WebDev podcast. I’ve started to teach myself html, css, and JavaScript. I’m on month 5.
I needed something that I could listen to not only learn the language that comes with the industry, but also keep one foot in the industry as I start to dive into this industry.

So far I’ve listened to the first 3 podcasts from the show and have found them very helpful as introductions into web development. Html and CSS were defined and explained well and both Dain and Keith brought a bigger understanding as to why these are good things for a self starter to learn even though they are not languages. Thanks for the tips and tricks! Especially concerning episode 3, Web Dev Tool Belt! Thanks for bringing the pros/cons for text editors, and suggestions for languages to learn.

The only negative I have is that when I tried to sit down and do the challenges they offer from each podcast, the webpage starthere.fm was unavailable do to a privacy error. Chrome (up to date) displayed a message saying that this website is unsafe. I googled on how to solve the problem. With many tries, deleting my history, caches, restarting chrome, and going to //:chromeflags no luck. The only thing I have not tried is a password protected WiFi network (I’m in a coffee house). I’m disappointed... I was really looking forward to reviewing the resources since the podcast was truly good. If Keith or Dain have any ideas as to this problem I’m open to here them.

Yes, I would share this with a friend. Thanks for your contribution to the webdev community!

Comes across as being 14 and thinking deep thoughts in his parents’ basement and hanging out on r/TheDonald. Far better podcasts out there for newcomers to web development.

this whole podcast is to sell his course.

PLEASE DO NOT BUY HIS COURSE!

$60 for a compilation of links to YouTube videos that’s already free that you can look up yourself. He says “money back guarantee” and I’ve requested my money back and haven’t received it ever. No contact. Nothing. Please do not fall for this SCAM!

Take whatever you can out of the podcast content as there are valuable information here. But don’t fall for the tricks. That course he sells is just robbery
