When a client needs a mission-critical feature built with tech you’ve never touched before—what do you do? In this Web News, we talk about the pressure of learning on the fly, whether or not to disclose your inexperience, and how to navigate these high-stakes situations without losing your cool.
Web News is our recurring, conversational mini-episode from the HTML All The Things Podcast. Released as its own standalone episode (typically 20 minutes or less), it steps away from the technical side of web development to explore broader topics that impact developers, freelancers, and tech enthusiasts. From industry trends and freelancing challenges to burnout, productivity, and the business of coding—Web News dives into the human side of working in tech. Each episode's topicis guided by a prompt and/or set of questions that we prepare in advance, keeping the conversation focused and authentic.
Sometimes a customer asks you to do something that you’ve never done before - when it’s mission critical this can be nerve wracking. We’ve all Googled and researched our way to learning new skills before, however, putting them to use and into production straight away seems daunting.
