My first year as a developer was 2017, when I was introduced to HTML and CSS.
I experienced challenges such as network, power supply and my PC battery was bad. Being consistent wasn't really easy, but what motivated me was the things I saw people creating on websites and I felt, I could do this too.
I would go around looking for power, and instead of watching movies, I'd learn and write some codes. The next day, I would continue in my pursuit for power.
Few months later I was introcued to FreeCodeCamp. I also downloaded Sololearn app.
From HTML and CSS, I went to JS.
Down the road till now, I'd say that me keeping at being a developer despite the circumstances, was really a great choice.
My advice is,
Being a developer is sometimes frustrating and discouraging especially as a beginner, but when you know what you are aiming towards, you'll surely get there.
