I hear you! 😉 From someone who knows nothing about software (but wants to learn) I can definitely appreciate that. Any suggestions for where a person with zero experience can start learning software dev?

Decide what you want to do?

  1. Front End or Back End
    blog.teamtreehouse.com/i-dont-spea...

  2. Decide on a language
    fullstackacademy.com/blog/nine-bes...

  3. Start learning to code:
    udacity.com
    freecodecamp.org
    udemy.com
    youtube.com

  4. Start doing projects and put them on GitHub.
    GitHub.com
    makeuseof.com/tag/beginner-program...

  5. Data Structures and Algorithms
    medium.com/basecs

I hope this helps a little! :)

Yes, very helpful! I really appreciate it. Just started watching the CS50x course online through Harvard.
