Exciting times ahead
-
Well I'm currently working my notice with my current employer and start my new career next month. I'll be building responsive web sites and hybrid mobile apps using tools including Bootstrap, Telerik Platform and Cordova. These are technologies which I am not familiar with so I'll have to get learning. I'm at least familiar with web technologies (HTML5, CSS3 and Javascript) so this at least gives me a headstart on building web enabled pages. Having previously used Xamarin.Android to build cross-platform mobile apps, it will be interesting to see the differences in building, testing and deploying hybrid mobile apps. Should be fun. Exciting times ahead :-D

As far as I know I'll be using AppBuilder but could also be using other technologies. I've been having a play with the on-line tutorial and am very impressed :)

I'm having a deja vu :D
Read my (free) ebook Object-Oriented Programming in C# Succinctly. Visit my blog at Sander's bits - Writing the code you need. Or read my articles here on CodeProject.

Congratulations on your new future :) cheers, Bill

We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

An additional "Good Luck" from me too. I'm now 7 weeks into my 12-week notice period, counting the days (just 25 left) until I'm free of "workin' fer the man". Both my fiancee and I have decided it's time to start up a business for ourselves, and will be offering web/applications development and support into the property management / conveyancing industry (initially just local) with ad-hoc consultancy where we can get it. To keep the boat afloat we're also going to offer small-office/home-office setup and support in the form of network/infrastructure, VOIP, server admin, desktop installation and optionally PAT testing to those same local businesses (and as many others as we can get!) It's all going to be very small scale (read: low income) compared to app development in the financial sector, but I want to look back on it in 20-30 years and say "win or lose, I gave it a shot"... Maybe it's the mid-life crisis doing all the thinking here :wtf:
