Leveling UP with Scott Tolinski

Dude, in this gnarly podcast episode, Scott Tolinski, like, totally drops some knowledge bombs about his wild 21-year coding journey, man. He takes us back to the early days, you know, high school websites and all that. And then, he's like, "Whoa, mentors are where it's at," teaching us everything from project management to how to deal with clients and working in a team. And then, the vibe totally shifts to Scott's rad experiences with Meteor, this full-stack JavaScript thing. He talks about how it's all real-time, like, super cool for chat apps and stuff. But then, he cruises into the switch to React and SvelteKit, and he's like, "Whoa, it's not all rainbows and butterflies." Now, let's ride the wave to Scott's Level Up Tutorials project. It's this epic journey from struggling to make it work, to hanging ten with Wes Bos on the Syntax podcast. And he's all about finding your stoke in personal projects, man. So, it's all about, like, asking questions, taking a break when you're stuck, and knowing it's cool not to have all the answers. You know, don't be fooled by the social media highlight reel, folks. Learning's a marathon, not a sprint. And, by the way, Sentry.io's got your back for tracking code errors and stuff. Cowabunga, dude! 🤙 Special thanks to Diarrhea Planet for our intro and outro music and @SkratchTopo for our artwork.   Links from this episode: Scott's website Level Up Tutorials Syntax website Scott's Instagram Scott's Twitter Scott on Bluesky Drupal Angular 1 Meteor Vue.js Apollo Sentry.io
