My girlfriend is an environmental scientist but is currently learning to code. She's done a bootcamp (Scrimba, JavaScript), and now is working on a side project of mine/ours (Ruby on Rails, JavaScript)[0]. I think it's a great way for her to learn, since it's a real project with real users and I can give her feedback in PR reviews, like it's done in the real world.

Eventually, she wants to get a proper job as a junior dev, to get the experience of work in a bigger team and not just with me, and to see how she likes this profession.

Do you have any tips on how to find a junior dev role without a traditional computer science background? Most job listings I see are for more experienced devs...

Thanks!
