All developers want to get better

But doing this can be hard. Especially in the beginning…

Here are 5 things you can do to improve as a developer

## 1. Read other’s code

This was really important for me in the beginning, especially when I was struggling with some concepts

Just think about this:

If you never read other developer’s code, you’ll always write the exact same code

And you have no idea if that is good or not

But what can you do about it?

1. Choose a project you want to work on
2. Build it yourself
3. After you finished it go on GitHub and search for similar projects and read that code
4. Improve your own code
5. Repeat

## 2. Use platform like Codewars or Leetcode

I already talked about this a few times in the past too, but it’s never too much

I use both of these platforms for almost 6 months every day and I think it’s one of the best things I did as a developer
