Hello! This is my learning/coding journey. Hopefully I will keep this site updated as I go along. My journey started in April 2022, but to me that was just getting my toes wet. I'm on the real journey now.

Getting started is always one of the hardest parts of any journey. I myself ended up in tutorial hell for a few months, before finding out that I want to be a frontend devloper. Then I came across Scrimba, and here I am.

I work a remote data entry job. Combine that with coding and 80% of my day is easily typing on the keyboard (and moving the mouse around in circles). A mechanical keyboard is a must! Makes typing much more fun. I have 2.

After getting a work from home job, learning to code on the side and then add in some gaming to relax, I learned real quick that I'm going to need a better chair. I personally invested in a Herman Miller Embody.

One of the reasons I believe people give up on becoming a devloper is distractions. A family is a healthy distraction, and one that requires your attention, but many are just social media, netflix, youtube, video games, etc. I learn I must limit the amount of time I give to these things in a given day.

One thing I kept hearing in the progamming world is "touch grass". They say that it is a must to take a break and get some fresh air. I've yet to try this. I will let you know how it goes when I do.

The dopamine hit that I get when my code finally works is far more rewarding than anything I've ever done in a video game. This is one of the things that has kept me going. I'm in such a great mood all day when I finally fix that bug, or I make that website that I've been stuck on.
