I’ve always had trouble getting into coding/programming because I’ve never truly dedicated myself to it. Mostly, this is because I kinda always lose momentum to learn it. I’m a heavy FOSS user; I love coreboot/Libreboot and am interested in getting into firmware development. I’ve already helped test hardware for Libreboot and enjoy learning about firmware.

I have just started to cut out gaming from my life to focus more on this. Maybe I should start with Python? At the same time, though, I feel like I should start with C, but don’t want to jump the gun too quick.

Feel free to share your stories!

    I started learning Python in middle school and completed some projects that I wanted to make. That’s how I got into programming. Now I use Rust for my hobby projects and C++ for school.

    I always were fascinated by computers so it was easier for me to get into it. But if you can find something that might get you motivated to try to program, I’m certain you’ll get into it.
