Hello to the whole community 👋

This is a wonderful question, which in turn suggests another:

If you know the difference between frontend and backend, in which of the two areas would you like to work?

If you like frontend, definitely one language I would recommend is HTML, even it is not a programming language but a markup language. It is easy, intuitive and that is where web programming starts.

If you like the backend, from personal experience, I would recommend C. Although it might initially seem impossible to learn, in the long run it opens your mind to certain topics that with any other programming language you can't "see". If you get into it, obviously the next step is to learn C# 😄
