Could someone please be my mentor or career counselor, and share with me some
of your experiences, and answer my wonderment questions?
As a web designer, how did you push away and bypass the masses of people
shouting "WORDPRESS, WORDPRESS", and "DREAMWEAVER, DREAMWEAVER"? How did you
get drawn into Python web design?
I learned Python and thought it was sort of obvious, simple, and easy, although
I have not done anything with it after reading about it. But Wordpress - to
this day, it is a 100% waste of my time. I want to be a web designer, but not
with Wordpress or Joomla. I have learned html5, CSS3, and responsive web
design. I like CoffeeCup html5 editor, and like Concrete5 CMS. I have not
learned Django because it is not yet Python version 3.
As a Python web designer, are you an employee of a company, or do you instead
have your own private practice, providing contracted services to individual
clients? What kind of websites do you build? Who hires you? Large companies,
small businesses, individuals? Who would NOT want a Python/Django website? Do
you work from home, or do you drive into the office, or do you travel around to
visit clients? Do you basically only use Python and Django, or instead do you
have to also know a whole bunch of other stuff? For instance, do you HAVE to
know SQL, or is it just a fancy extra? Do you know Javascript? What are the
minimum skills needed to become employable as a Python/Django web designer?
Concerning Python programming, do I have to be skillful enough to actually
create, design, and write my own Python code, or can I just find/copy/paste
code into the website? As a Python web designer, do you work on the front-end
or the back-end of a website, or both front and back?
Can you give me direction and advice on how I can make money with
Python/html5/CSS3 skills?
