Menokemo You are in the right direction, and now you can join any IT Company as well where you can learn more things like new software, trends etc...which will help in your growth and simultaneously you can learn different courses related to web design and development.

Menokemo You are in the right direction, and you can apply to any Company. I will also suggest joining freelancing platforms that will also help you earn and polish your skills. With time you will get more experience.

IMO Bootstrap was fine at times when there was neither flex nor grid layout. Now both are available and, as far as layouting is concerned, everything can be done by use of these. Therefore I do not recommend to focus on Bootstrap. However there are some fine features like modals and navigation where BS can be useful.

Many forums have a jobs section, including this one. Open "Etc" in the sidebar at the left and you will find it. Or sometimes a member wants to do a project and his scills are not sufficient. Then you might offer your support.

Got my first job in software QA when I was about 31. Got my first real software engineering job in my early 50s (after doing some on-and-off freelancing for about 5 years or so before that, and picking things up on the QA jobs over the years).

The problem that I don't feel I'm a good enough yet to start with a company for work.
But sure will come the time now im trying to getting more experienced with doing any small projects to build a little good portfolio.

Menokemo Yes, it is good to get more experience by doing various small projects so that your portfolio is being built. Also, be confident to apply in companies, and as I suggested earlier, to get numerous projects, you can join any freelancing platform as it will help you a lot.
