what got you into coding/developing?

I got a job as a tutor and several units involved programming and I got hooked on it!

one man said that i can create own games, not just play. then i tried move few boxes on keypress in qbasic. and here after 16 years i still think about gamedev, but doing corporate softwares because of... idk

Getting my fist computer when I was 14, having very few games for it, finding out that it included this thing called Basic, and a few friends and I realizing we could build choose your own adventure games to trade with each other. It just kind of kept going from there.

Feels weird admitting that I actually found some sort of inspiration in that old 8088.

My parents got me a Lego NXT when I was 10. I have been coding or more learning since then.

My sister on computer lesson learned VB.NET
And this is how my story started when I was 11.

well my story is quit interesting, 6 years ago when i was in 8th grade, i met a boy and we became friends(we are still best friends) he told me about his younger brother that, "He used to create websites, using HTML" this thing got my attention but never tried learning it, and days passed by, our 9th grade started and our school offered us some extra courses in evening like "CCNA , MCP" that time i was not that much aware of what these things actually are, i got admission in MCP i paid the fees but lectures they thought us were only about ms-word or some time excel, i got bored and i decided to leave, at last day of lecture our instructor told us that today we will be learning about "HTML" and he taught us how to create basic html file that day i found it very interesting and decided to learn it.

i left taking lectures from there and started to learn it on my own, i found youtube lectures followed them and decided to pursue my career as web developer, and now i'm working as a web developer for my friends brother(whom he told me about in 8th grade)

@AdeE i like your Story :)

@FatalError haha thanks 😊

Wanted to make games, now gamedev is a little boring for me, osdev is more fun
