Ask HN: How do I earn more as a developer?

I have immigrated to France for a better life a little over 2 years ago, and I have been working as a frontend developer ever since. I have managed to move from a little under 2000€/month as a starting salary to around 2500€ now. Which is OK but not great. But since money is a delicate subject here and people try not to talk about it, I'm clueless about how to progress and what kind strategies I should be taking. I was wondering how all the people are landing the big bucks? How can I move to a bracket that would allow me to eventually buy a house and start a more stable life.
