  Posted in the topic Starting My Journey as a Freelancing Frontend Developer – Need Some Guidance in the forum Off-Topic Discussions

  Hi everyone,

  I’ve recently been learning frontend development and I’m really enjoying it. I’ve covered the basics of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a bit of React. Now I’m thinking about starting as a freelancing frontend developer, but I’m not sure where to begin.

  I’ve heard about platforms like Fiverr and Upwork, but I don’t know which one is better for beginners. Also, how do you decide what to charge? Do I need a portfolio before applying for freelance jobs? And how do you make sure the client actually pays?

  If anyone here has experience with freelancing in this field, I’d really appreciate your advice or tips. I’m ready to put in the effort, just looking for some direction to get started the right way.

  Thanks a lot!
