I signed up for the free 14 days trial at Treehouse. I started with the Web development track and worked through the HTML and CSS stuff. After a week or so, my first website was out there on the web.

That's pretty awesome! It's amazing how you can gain so much programming knowledge without going to school these days.

It's amazing how your skills can evolve so greatly over time too, isn't it? Just think about how you started out: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and now you're blogging on dev.to about React and Meteor! I started with Python and evolved to Windows and Android apps and beyond!
