How did you get into coding?

I got into coding because i simply didn't like many apps in Google play store, developers wouldn't listen, so i wanted to code and make better personalized versions of them

Because I still haven't found the perfect to-do app! JK ... sort of. Economic incentive + the constant satisfaction of learning new things and increasing my ability to help people.

I want to create my dad's real life ideas and some games projects, basically two games and a method he's working on about finding prime numbers in less time for big numbers, he's looking up to me which makes me work even harder, I wish I make him happy when I'm done😢(got emotional), I will succeed no matter what.

@Derek Leiro Thank you so much man, it really means a lot, I will first make my algorithmique thinking Solid, I will start by mastering a language it will be C++ then I will learn Unreal Engine and keep degging until I find the Gold; Languages I know so far: 1)Python: -->Started daily coding with Python 6 months ago: #Learned to make Desktop apps with Pyqt5 library. #Learned Web Scrapping using (urllib.request/beautifulsoup..) #Other libraries too 2)C/html/css/js/php: -->Learned C language syntax this year since I already had experience with a programming language "Python" the logic was easy so I'm loving it right now...hoping to start learning C++ in summer. -->learned html/css/js in university I can say that it's an easy task since js similar to C in a lot of ways #Learned Boostrap 4 framework for css #Learned jquerry framework(loving it) and that's it I've got a lot of frameworks to learn about but I need to master a language as I said before. 3)Bash scripting in linux 4)Algorithmique thinking(I'm improving) $$I will do it.$$

@Misa yeah, i was in that position of going back and forth with developers and them just keeping me waiting and I was like " you know what forget this, want something done, do it yourself" and its all for the best cause you get money out of it. So win win

Well I’m 16, but I kinda just always was fantasticated by it. Especially the hacking and pen testing aspect of it. Though when I was a sophomore in high school 1 year ago I really started to develop a passion for web design. It’s been great and I’ve learned a lot. I just started solo learn, seems like a great learning tool.

@Gj Fj I don't think you can make Android apps purely on HTML as it's a static web development language, but you can however use HTML to make Android apps with use of React Native or JavaScript then use Cordova or phone gap to package them to an app

I just love learning new things, and during breaks in my degree I learned coding on the side. Left it for a bit and kept coming back to it, gradually improving and eventually got a job with it (after many others :p). So I was like mid 20s before taking a proper interest, which is good to know if anyone else here is a late starter, it's never too late!
