hi,
When I was writing my post, I knew very little about IT, let alone programming. Few years later, I know something:

  • PHP
  • JSP
  • JAVA(Swing)

Thank you DaniWeb. The story still continues...

Nice to read everyone sharing how they got into tech. — congratulations on keeping the momentum going. And to and : this thread nicely shows how many different paths lead to programming. A few quick, practical pointers for anyone looking to turn curiosity into something concrete.

Start small and finish. Pick one focused project that solves a tiny, real problem and ship it. Use version control from day one — learn the basics at git-scm.com. Publish a short README explaining what it does, how to run it, and one or two screenshots. If it can be hosted publicly, put it somewhere linkable (for static sites, see pages.github.com). Those three things — working demo, repo, README — make your progress visible to others and to future employers.

When you ask for help here, be specific: say what you tried, include exact error text, list versions, and reduce the issue to a minimal reproducible example. Also, keep humor friendly and avoid anything that might make others uncomfortable; we all learn better in a welcoming space.

If anyone wants a quick sanity-check of a README or a project idea, post the link and I (or others) can give focused feedback.
