@WordCampLanc @aaronjorbin To get away from being on a team of one was to work on open source. Let the whole world review your code and get feedback on it for free, for the good of the project.

@WordCampLanc @aaronjorbin What if you’re a team of one?

@WordCampLanc @aaronjorbin Align what needs to get done with learning.

@WordCampLanc @aaronjorbin “How do you focus in a team with learning and getting work done?”

Communicating. Not learning is a risk. Not getting better is a risk. At times you want to take a risk. Others you want to ship quickly. If your team isn’t investing in you time to find a new team.

@WordCampLanc @aaronjorbin As an intermediate developer:

– Grow your knowledge
– Learn to breakdown work
– Be kind to one another
