Hello Kirupa & folks, I am transitioning my career to the software field and recently finished the BootCamp. I still need lots of help even to finish a project. I want to ask, What is an excellent way to improve your skills and get good at them? Welcome to share your journey. I would love to hear how you got to where you at today. ---

Congrats on finishing the boot camp. That’s quite impressive 🔭 One of the best ways is to practice by building projects! Pick an idea for an app or web site and start building it. It may be slow going at first, but every little thing you learn will accrue to bigger things. Eventually, you’ll have created something meaningful. Some examples of small projects can be seen here: > **[Coding Exercises](https://www.kirupa.com/codingexercises/index.htm)** > > The best way to learn is by building stuff. These exercises will help you do just that. Lastly, getting stuck is part of the process. We are all here to help, so whenever you are stuck, ask here and we’ll all be happy to help unblock you. Hope this helps! Cheers, Kirupa 🙂 ---
