Hi everyone,

I’m interested in hearing from people who started learning programming from a completely different field or background.

What was the experience like for you in the beginning? Did you ever feel overwhelmed, confused, or like giving up? How long did it take before things started making sense?

I’d also love to know: • What field did you transition from? • What programming language did you start with? • How did you stay motivated while learning? • What helped you improve the most?

I’m especially interested in honest experiences from beginners and self-taught developers.
