Not everyone wants to get a car initially and hence won't be getting a driver's license too.

But you still need an Id using which you can travel within the US without a passport.

In California, there are 2 options:

  1. State ID
  2. Driver Licence

and one of them can be a Real Id. meaning you can use that to do domestic travel on flights.

You can apply for an Id here -> https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/driver-licenses-identification-cards/identification-id-cards/ and can ask for it to be a Real id.

After you apply,

  1. You should select a date for an appointment.
  2. Carry the required proofs.
  3. You may need to pay around 30$.
  4. Id will be sent to your address in 2 or 3 weeks' time

I am a Software Developer from Bengaluru currently based in California. I am interested in Web Technologies as it helps to develop faster and help reach a wider audience. Its stress on Accessibility, Performance, and Security has strengthened it more. Although I have around 10 years of overall experience and have a breadth of knowledge in web technologies, I still felt the need to understand the depth and this blog is all about trying to start from primitive concepts and building on top of it. Thereby hoping it helps others who want to go through the same journey.
