Elordium Newsletter #5 | Side projects
Hi All,
As I mentioned in last week’s newsletter, this week I was working on some new articles:
How to extend your portfolio as a beginner?
In the first article, I have prepared five beginner-friendly project ideas for those who have trouble starting their portfolio or want to find some fresh ideas.
Getting started with programming
Looking back on my career choices, I started to wonder. What would I do differently if I had to start over? What path would I take?
In the second article, I go through the first few key milestones I would aim for.
More articles will be published on Elordium in the following weeks.
Until then, here are my best findings for this week:

Did you ever want to start contributing to an open-source project but didn't know where to start, how to approach new projects, or how to understand their internals?
You can find the answers to all these questions in this article, where you can read about Mitchell's way of contributing.
I hope you enjoyed this week’s newsletter.
See you next week,
