Released my first web applications and I got a job offer to do contracting work. I dont know what to do
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am a system administrator by trade, but I want to move in to web development. I started learning on my spare time and I released my first personal project and have gotten positive feedback and an offer to do contracting work.
I have not enquired anything about what the job might be and I dont know what to do. I could see myself doing freelancing work, but I am not very confident with my skills yet. Should I just fake it till I make it? Or should I apply for a junior webdev position in a company? Any other advice to handle contracting offers?
Thanks.
