Hello dear dev.to community! I am Luciano. About 6 months ago I decided to learn some programming. I am currently in the #100daysofcode challenge and am in the 30 day. I made some progress in HTML and CSS so far and am currently learning Bootstrap 4 and JavaScript.
I can't say what my goal is yet. However, I am happy to learn a lot of new things every day.

Man, your website looks amazing! I love that style. When you're designing something, do you start with something that looks great and then work out the practical stuff, or do you make something functional and then make it look cool?

Ebenezer Ndukwe

Thank you, Henry,
When designing something, I start with something that looks great and then work out the practical stuff.
The reason is, when your website is not looking great, nobody will bother to check the functionalities.
The good looks come first.

Hi everyone,
I'm JD. I used to do mostly backend stuff, but I've started migrating toward frontend.

I'm a huge fan of Javascript and it's ability to go anywhere, although I mostly write in Typescript these days.

I think privacy is important and I think more support is needed for browsers without Javascript or cookies enabled. I'm currently utilising CSS to make it do things it wasn't meant for, but makes a great alternative to JS.

Also, I have a soft spot for real time communications, such as IRC and it's modern day equivalents.

Mary Afor

Hello Dev.to community! my name is Mary,
Am pursuing a degree in computer Applications, in my final year, I hv learned many programming languages like c,c++,data structure, html & css with js, java and php, I hv a little knowledge of all these programming languages but am finding it difficult to choose which one is good for me. My goal is to become a software engineer. I need some advice on how to choose the best programming language.

Collapse
 
vaibhavkhulbe profile image
Vaibhav Khulbe

Welcome, Mary! I suppose you can choose a programming language by asking yourself "What I'll be building or working on for the next couple of years?" Take that tech stack and learn that programming language, see if you're comfortable and are able to make projects or code on your own. That might be your next favourite programming language! Else, find an alternative.

I hope that helped. 😀

Hey Mary, thanks for following me!

The best advice I can give is Web Dev. I am biased and here is why.

The web is So visible. non-tech savvy people can appreciate your work and its easy to get into and hard to master.

the stacks to build web are moving into other areas like VR and AR as well as Mobile dev with React Native, Ionic, webGL, ect...

No matter what you get into, you're not going to love or hate the languages, in my opinion, you are going to love or hate your commitment level to a skill. I recommend that you specialize in one thing and then diversify.

Welcome on board, Mary.
I think you should focus on these firstly HTML & CSS and JavaScript, once you master these, then proceed to learn JavaScript Frameworks and you can fly from there because the trend is shifting towards that direction.
In the process, find your strength (Frontend or Backend or FullStack Developer)
This is what I also did and am excelling in these areas.

Woah! What a friendly community.

Our startup: our team has been founding, growing, exiting and investing in companies for 20 years.

The problem we keep seeing: people are (generally) not effective communicators.
As companies grow, the issue becomes even more painful and
operations start to break down. leading to negative consequences for companies that CAN be prevented.

We're fixing it. Stay tuned :-)

Hello.

I'm a life long code tinkerer. It has recently come to my attention that I'm better at programming than I thought. Now I just wanna get better. So the internet brought me here.

I use SAS at work, but I rather enjoy Python. I'm better at R though. I started my code tinkering with C and HTML. I think Julia is really cool but haven't had much time to tinker yet. I should probably learn Java? Or JavaScript?

Idk, I'm rambling. Looking forward to reading.

At the beginning of the year, I was accepted on to a bootcamp which started at the beginning of Feb.

3 weeks in and I’ve been introduced to C#, .NET, Razor, APIs, MVC. Also we’ve learnt HMTL, CSS, JavaScript, UX/UI, Web accessibility and Web responsiveness.
I love CSS and how powerful it is - I can’t wait to learn more. Also I enjoy putting the user first when I’m coding.

So far, I’ve been loving my tech journey through the highs and lows.

My goal is to get my first role in tech preferably front end development but as I’m also learning back end dev too, I’m keeping myself open to new possibilities.

Gabriel González Soto

Hello to all DEV'onauts...

I writing this introductory comment of my self again, as I apparently deleted the post I wrote this morning.

Once upon a time, black gold powered the world, now there is code!!!

My name is Gabriel, and some time ago (thirty plus years), I used to write programs the structured way, in what many people consider to be ancient languages (Fortran/Cobol). Since then, I haven't written any thing juicy, other than some software tools in C#, Java, some C and C++, but no bigger than 150 lines of code. I'm not an expert by any means on any of the aforementioned languages, I just picked at them enough to give the users what they needed.

Now that I have a bit more time on my hands, I'm getting back into real programming, well I hope so, I'm doing my best. I don't believe in the "You can't teach an old dog new tricks". So I started learning Python, Elixir, Elm, I mean, like I just started this month. Also learning some other IT related stuff that I like, not to mentioned that I have to keep on ploking at C# and Java, for the company I work for.

I'm sure I'l learn a lot from you guys, if you are willing to share and have patience with this old/newb programmer. And I hope I have some thing of value I could share with you, so I don't feel like a leech.

Sincerely...

code@50

I am just a newbie. Here today because I read an article about gamification, and it was really interesting.

For now I'm into the Freecodecamp, spent already hundreds of hours over there and starting to dive in Javascript.

I'm also participating to a little challenge called 100daysofcode.

And about me, I do live in France but I like to travel so I do like to spend time as often as I can in the so called neighborhood : Poland mainly, but also Germany, Switzerland, Luxembourg, Belgium, Denmark, Great-Britain, Italy, Spain... Europe is great.

My aim is also to work remotely in the future. I won't change my mind about this.

Hi there, everyone!

I'm Aureliano and I thought that I wouldn't have anything interesting to say... But I've finally built up some courage and I'm ready to write something worth reading about my journey into programming.

My journey began in high school with C++, but since I've started working 8 years ago I've focused mainly on front end technologies (and I'm deeply in love with JS).

Wish me luck!

Hello people, just swooping by to see what kind of community and blog platform this is and how it turns out.

I felt that I needed a blog-outlet somewhere that I didnt have to build from scratch (yet again) even though it makes a good topic when streaming development it's not the most fun thing to create. Why reinvent the wheel? Hope to be able to contribute somehow.

I am Koppany. I'm learning C# while working as a guard. I'm also battling mental problems unfortunately.
Right now I'm really into 'repairing' (speeding back up) my phone by saving/bookmarking/exporting all android chrome tabs then rooting my phone.

Hello! I am attempting to alleviate the mindless scroll of facebook from my life and after getting a subscription to medium, started wondering if there were any alternatives to it or developer communities that I didn't know about. Well.... clearly there are!

I have been programming for almost 2 years unless you count my dabbling in HTML in my teens and basic programming courses in high school (QBasic and Visual Basic, yeah I'm getting old). I started with Python on CodeCademy and then moved on to learn python the hard way and Automate the Boring Stuff. All excellent resources that I recommend for beginners. I decided that programming was for me and enrolled in Coding Dojo's online bootcamp. I had a good experience, although there were some things that I wished were different. I studied what seemed like a ton of subjects from HTML, CSS, JS, jQuery, SQL, Python, Django, Flask, C#, .NET Core console and web apps... there are some other peripheral things we learned, and it was all in 20 weeks. I've since learned that we only scratched the surface, although I wish I had gotten more depth in the category of my choosing.

I worked hard on a portfolio, but ultimately got a position developing for the platform I worked on as a Service Desk Technician, ServiceNow. There isn't as much coding as I would like, but I'm building great soft skills as a developer and coding on my own time. I work from home and while I don't want to do it forever, I mostly love my job.

Thanks if you read this far, I can be long-winded. I love to code and i'm looking forward to being in this community as I level up!

SALUT!

I'm Jesse, I'm from a small town in rural Michigan originally but consider myself "from the internet". Still idling in the same IRC channels I've been in for over 20 years. My work has been all over the map, from embedded firmware development on custom PCB's to run of the mill full-stack development across a multitude of languages.

Could eat tacos every day. Find programming in Ruby to result in the most smiles per minute of any language I've ever worked in.

Hello.

I'm a CS degree holder and it has recently hit me that I'm enjoying programming more than I did when I was studying it. And now I just want to be better and make a career out of it. So I scattered around the internet and found this awesome website/community.

Currently working as Junior Front End engineer, and React JS is my stack. Looking forward to be part of this community.

Cheers,
Adam.

Lessons from a Career of Software Development…. ­­

During a career spanning more years than I’d like to admit to, I’ve been blessed to have had the opportunity to learn from a number of great mentors and the privilege to work among some truly awesome teams. Positive empowering influences, both personal and professional, I continue to be humbled by the level of support I’ve been lucky to have been the beneficiary of. My goal is to be an active contributor to this, and many other communities, sharing thoughts and suggestions about building high-performing teams.
