Programming is complicated, and you should quit. That’s just one of many sentences I have heard said to beginners when they start learning to code. Programming is not hard; it is challenging. It forces you to think in a different way that is creative and also productive.
As a beginner, getting into the field may seem very overwhelming, but it’s possible. There’s not just one path you take to get into this field; there are many different paths that have their own strengths and weaknesses. Getting a four-year degree, doing a boot camp, teaching yourself with YouTube and online academies, or even doing a mixture of all three can help you achieve your goals.
That’s why I started this blog series called “Become a Dev.” Where I will bring you along on my Dev journey and give you tips on starting yours, it is essential to note that your experiences and my experiences will be completely different. Your hardship may be easy, while my hardships may be easy for you. I want you to grow and feel confident about your abilities. It’s okay; you don’t know anything yet, but in no time, you will. I also made a Github repo that shows the project I’m working on and planning to work on; it will also have an update on how those projects are going.
