You don't become a good developer when you copy others. You become a good developer when you trigger your creativity and find solutions others cannot find. You go into the realms of the unexplored and find it by yourself.
One of the interesting things is that team work actually prevents you from becoming a good developer. You never get exposed for the hard problems, someone else is always saving you, so you never learn to get the energy to focus to complete the program to the very end.
For the last months I have been forced the SCRUM methodology. It is one of the most mind numbing experience you can find. You literally get taught that failure is the new norm. You have to accept it as inevitable. But I refuse to do so. I do not adept failure of my projects and code as normal. So I am using my creative mindset to bypass any imposed restrictions by SCRUM.
However the hard reality is that being a good developer most probably will prevent you from finding a job. It is hard to pass the HR bullshit that only selects on hyped keywords. And with the SCRUM madness, they will probably not want you because you will singlehanded outperform the SCRUM team. There is a mass money industry behind the SCRUM madness, and you would prove that they wasted all their money to create this crappy software that never seems to work.
