@haithamSboui its not uncommon. I did the same but with graphic design and parts of websites. I didn't get much more than like a costumer every 3 months. People find 12 yold developers sketchy and I don't blame them....

Crazed20507yWhen I was 12 I played video games and rode my bike. What's with all these kids learning abstract design and coding principles?
Shit, I wish I was good at anything by the time I was even in high school. -

I was 12 years old and it was my first freelance.
I was taking a Web Designer course and my teacher offered me an “opportunity”. He asked me to develop a search engine for a real estate website.
I did it pretty quickly with PHP and MySQL. The amount offered was U$ 20.00 (yeah, I know, it sucks, but it was a good chance to earn experience).
3 months went by, it was the last week of the course and he still hadn’t payed me yet!
End of story: my dad and a couple friends went to the school and had a conversation with him. They said things like: man, you shouldn’t ruin a kid’s dream for twenty dollars. I’m sure he only payed me because he was scared haha
