Learning to code is tough but it's not enough.

Too many developers end up as glorified typists or code-bots. As a code-bot you will write code, given a clear set of instructions, that might even work.

You will fix easy bugs, update the colors of buttons and might even write some simple features.

The danger of being a code-bot is that they are plentiful and expendable.

If you want meaningful work that energizes you and gets you paid handsomely then here are 3 mental shifts you need to make as a software developer

Let's explore how to go from code-bot to software engineer in a practical way
