In what direction should a novice C# developer move now?

Question

Freelance

I would like to learn from more experienced uncles the details about the types of projects and tools that are in demand, or, in general, about the subject area, which, although it will not allow you to immediately earn 300kkk / nanosec, but at least will allow you not to realize "Misha, everything #&[email protected] , let's do it again".

It would also be desirable to get advice on the topic on which sites you can peep orders for those projects that are actually popular at enterprises in order to know what programs to write for self-practice: it will not work to go directly to practice at an enterprise, having settled as an intern for a piece of bread : the city is small, there are no such enterprises.

I have been studying the language for about six months and I know the basics, in connection with which the question of choosing a direction has come. Therefore, from a recent moment, I decided to compare the vacancies of enterprises and offers on freelance exchanges, as a result of which I found that:

1. Mobile and web applications are very popular in C# freelancing
   
2. C# is very unpopular in freelancing
   
3. You can't figure out the question "Sharp at the enterprise" without a hundred grams
   

In addition, lately MS with its vinphones has low rates, and hence the small need for zamarin (I do not deny that there is work like "make a term paper / practice" for him, but the value of such work for the future is near zero) Of course

, we must go directly in the company and work with projects for the PC, but in what directions to work with them? The vacancies of enterprises, of course, indicate some of the tools required for work, but only one indication does not speak about the general image of the projects and how these tools will be used in these projects.

PS Throwing C # in favor of another language (and I'm sure someone will offer such an option) is not a hunt for at least two reasons: a) it is multifaceted and allows you to do a lot b) Duckling Syndrome

Answer 1

Beginners - forget about freelancing for a while. You can focus on .net core + Azure or AWS - work in bulk, the possibilities are endless. It's time to forget about desktop development. If she is needed somewhere, then this is only in addition.

Answer 2

at least it will allow you not to realize after six months or a year "Misha, that's all #&$! @, let's do it again."

If you definitely want without it, then stop programming. Here it will not be "after six months a year" but "every six months or a year."

Answer 3

dude, if you haven’t learned how to use google and you ask what sites you can
peep on, so everyone peeps on google and yandex,
well, who will tell you, misha, it’s shit if you write a lot of software all the time, including for yourself, and it works stupidly
