Ask HN: Web developers who didn't go to college, how did you get your first job?
I'm writing a book teaching developers how to take their skills to a professional level and learn the soft skills required to be a great developer (communication, personal branding, collaboration, etc.).
I'm trying to do a bit of research. I learned web development using online resources, built a few sample apps, and used that to get my first job as a developer. I'm just wondering what everyone else's path was here who didn't go to school for development or computer science.
