no need to code

if you are into coding FFS go for it

you will have jobsaplenty

yeah - i'm teaching myself code in my free time

visual programming is a great way to get discipline. when you learn coding yourself you want to see results quickly but its harder with actual code

I found Graphic Design as my craft, but I can't seem to find a trade school for that one. I did manage to get some skills off of that.

to understand the basics of logic and to get good coding habits as a noobie i would recommend visual programming

what do you mean by visual programming? is that stuff like making the front-end of websites where you get instant feedback?

something easy

yeah - while you were studying computer science how did you find learning alogirthms and data structures - did you not enjoy it?

visual basic, construct 2, blueprint in unreal engine etc.

i didn't enjoy it and i burnt out

was it the workload or the actual topic that caused you to burn out?

wouldnt learning data structures and algorithms compliment learning visual programming?

just the topic, if youre not a newbie you dont need visual programming i just recommend it for building discipline and good habits and as an intro

what kind of habits are you referencing and do you recommend undertaking multiple courses on udemy or coursera - idk whether to learn by just trial and error on my own projects or following alongon a course

you just have to start

if you over analyze you'll never pick something

thats why visual programming allows you to make something easily and quickly so you can see if you're interested in continuing further

oh okay- i've been coding daily for the past 2 months and before that had an internship as a data analyst where i used vba msot of the time for creating analytical reports - what made me get into coding initially was, and i know it's shallow, was the prestige of being a 'coder' as well as creating something unique that could be used by other people

what made you get into coding initially @Happy Humble Hermit

i made video games in high school

why was that enjoyable for you

i love video games

why do you think you love video games?

at its heart, doesn't anyone's hobby come from self expression through innovation?

Are you like.... A therapist?

nooo

I walked in at the right time. Is there coding talk going on in here?

System.out.println("maybe lol") ;

i'm a noobie and only been coding for like 3-4 months so was looking for some advice

so yeah lol, i've been playing around with web dev but it just seems so daunting so i'm focusing on the basics and working up from first principles

been using a site calling "free code camp"

... Do you hate your life?

great resource - very hands on

Check out w3schools

@Kragt ???

yes @shadowlessnexus

They have some decent stuff

w3 is solid
