I am on a bit of a learning curve, lately.

Where I used to run away from learning to code, now, finding myself on the same path again, where learning to code seems to be the best bet.

And.. I got curious...

How did you start your coding journey?

What inspired you? Caught you? Or drove you?

For me.. it was modding games, that was the beginning, down to coding robots (mechatronics - arduino), then, customizing scripts and CSS for web dev. Wbu? Now, I am learning to hack, so down to python.
(P.S. Help needed, in getting python down, any free advices/courses will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!)

I started with batch scripting but when the limitations became too bad i switched to python and on the side i learned linux. after all that i got big into web pentesting and there i am now.
If you're going the same route i HIGHLY recommend these platforms:

• pentesterlab (there's a free version, pro costs 20$ a month)
• postswigger academy (free)

started with html/js and then java in school, like it since then!

I started programming when I was 12 (maybe even younger, I don't really remember).
At that time, I often saw my older brother busy doing something in front of a laptop, not gaming tho. So, I asked him what was he doing, and that's when I was first introduced to Blogger. It's my first touch with HTML/CSS, but not Javascript, because I thought JS is so complex that it's not even written by a human.
Soo, I can't call myself a programmer yet (because i know HTML isn't a programming lang nerd), but eventually, I learned JS anyway much later, followed by PHP (for Wordpress), Python (for scripting), and now I'm learning C++ in college.

we had an after school class in middle school and that's how i started. just random interest in trying new things.

Bro it's funny, used to be a professional tournament player (played Street Fighter 5 in my local scene), met one of my online buddies at a tournament and he was a full stack dev and he inspired me to try it and I got into it lol.

I always love to learn...

Nevr got the chance or opportunity...
but i love following or watching the people do it nd pivk the easy ones i can understand.

same, i dont want to learn code, but find everything need coding, so start to learn coding at school

@wideeye..thank you for the tips :)

I wanted to make games so I started playing around with pygame using some kid's book, never became a good coder tho
