Tell her to brush up her skills to go beyond just VueJS and get some React, Ember, Angular, Node, and Express. If she doesn't just limit herself to one, she stands a better chance of being seen over the competition.
She might also fair well to post on Craigslist or other sites offering to redesign/develop websites in Vue.js.
- Akcium 3y agoThe only problem with learning new stuff is that learning != having experience. E.g., she can learn react, make a to-do app, but it's not a real commercial experience, and in most cases it won't be counted. However, I agree with you. The problem is that she needs money right now, due to mortgage and stuff, I would maybe learn something additional like a backend framework, so that she can say "I'm good at Vue, have experience, but I also know next.js, made my own pet project with it" something like that
- Akcium 3y agoFirst time I heard about... craigslist? Hm
- mattbgates 3y agoI think it is the fact that you bring "knowledge of" to the table more so than having a portfolio with it. As far as Craigslist, it is the easiest place to either list services or find companies looking for a freelancer. She could also go to local businesses and see if they need a website. As much as she wants to remain in development, there is also the alternative route... doing something else, especially if things are due right now.
