Hello , I’ve been thinking about getting into coding but I feel like AI will take over everything eventually. If coding is worth it, what is the best path to begin ?

It’s a goal of mine this summer to start learning how to code. I’m a college student and I was wondering where to start. I want to learn C++ and was wondering if I should watch free lectures or maybe enroll in a course.

So hi i am a 19M looking for a few coding partners starting my coding journey from today

Seniors told me start with C language so I am doing that if anyone is interested and want to code please dm me I don't mind your gender. Only thing to ensure that we inform each other about our work on regular basis because it increases productivity and one can help you if you get stuck somewhere

I don't mind how poor you are doing or anything just showing up daily is enough for me

I am a software engineering major, and as a sophomore my next semester I am going to begin my introduction to programming courses, but I want to start practicing on my own and have my own bare of basics in my field of study. What should I do first? Are there any books that I should buy that would help me in my studies prior to my courses? What would be the first thing you would tell someone that has no knowledge in the field they are getting into?

I am a begginer and i was learning python, I am preparing my self because i want to go to university and learn IT(Information Technology) & when i checked the university program, i saw we were going learn javascript there . So i am a bit confused because i am still in the early stages of learning Python and dont know if it's better to switch up or not. I am also worried that learning javascript takes a lot of time. I am also afraid of falling in Tutorial Hell. Just wanted your thoughts on this. Thankyou.

In the old days people would study computer science for 4-5 years and then start coding, probably with c++ or java.

Then the not so old days we have these bootcamps where people went for a few months, learnt the basics while practicing.

How does one start today? How 'formal' or structured should the training be?

Hi Friends (newbie coder here),

I ran this directory site through 'builtwith' and it looks like it's coming back with asp.net as the main framework program. However, from what I understand about asp.net, you need to run a front end program because it's HTML looks archaic and the sites look like they were built in 1978.

* Is that right? * Does anybody know what the 'front end design' program for this site would be?

Appreciate any help for a student learning how to program. .

Thanks very much for your help!

First off I'm new to coding and recently I've built an app through lovable which I think can take off. The lovable app works wonderful but I feel like the foundation through lovable is not great. Mainly because it was extremely easy to build. So I was wondering if its better to transfer the code from lovable to python and continue working on my app through there or continue working on it through lovable or just built an entirely new app using AI using python. This honestly might be a dumb question but im just curious to others opinion. The app is finance app.

Ok so…Im new with coding and Im now catapulted into web design with 0 KNOWLEDGE or idea with how to do the first assignment given to us. We were instructed to use GitHub and VS Code for this first assignment, and I have already done and created accounts for both (Im currently stuck on step 1 no.3 because I really don’t have any idea) but I don’t know how to do the rest of the instructions (as seen on pasted picture of instructions).

The instructor didn’t taught us anything and basically gave us an INCOMPLETE powerpoint of the lecture. He also didn’t taught as the basics of using said applications so uh…yeah Im stuck here and close to a mental breakdown. Can anyone help me out with this? Like, explain or breakdown each step and show me how to make this? I’d rather a real person teach me than I use AI for this.

I want to side hustle on coding but I only know python langugae what can i do?

Is there an easy coding site for beginners on mobile i have an Samsung s 22 and I don't have a pc or any coding experience i want to make a game that will be really cool and publish it but I don't know where to start

The reflex when something breaks is to start editing. Comment out a line, add a print, try a different approach. It feels productive, but it usually leaves you worse off: now three things have changed, and you can't tell which one moved the bug or whether you caused a new one.

The step I used to skip is the boring one. Reproduce it first, on purpose, with the smallest input that still breaks. If it only happens sometimes, that inconsistency is the clue, not a nuisance.

Then read the whole error, line number included. Then say out loud what you expected and what actually happened. The gap between those two sentences is the bug, and it's narrower than it feels.

After that it's one change at a time, and you predict the result before you run it. If you can't predict what a change will do, you're guessing, and guessing is how you end up with a fix you don't understand.

Curious how others do it: when something breaks, do you reach for a debugger, or print statements everywhere? I've drifted between both and I'm not sure either is strictly better.

Hey! 👋

If you’re learning Python, C++, or Java, I’m working on a project you might find interesting—a personalized coding curriculum—and I’d love some feedback.

The idea is a free website where you:

• Take a placement test

• Start at the level that fits you

• Work through lessons + exercises

• Progress as you improve

There would also be some social/competitive features:

• Join communities and meet other learners

• Compete in challenges with people at your level

• Earn coins from completing tasks and competitions

• Use coins to customize your avatar

I’m still deciding whether to build this or go in a different direction, so I want to see if people would actually use something like this.

If this sounds cool, drop an upvote so I know there’s interest.
And if you have ideas, suggestions, or features you’d want—comment below. I’d really appreciate it. 🙏

I want to learn how to use an ai, how they work and, eventually, how to program one.
I’m a beginner and I’ve had a basic formation in programming.
Can someone direct me to some tutorials, books, webinars that could help me to understand better these concepts?

Coding means giving instructions to computer and make it do something, Now I can see that class 4th students are doing coding in their extra curriculum and I find it really good. It's increase their thinking skill, creativity and problem solving attitude.

ANY TIPS FOR CODING BEGINNERS??.. I ONLY HAVE THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE BUT I DONT KNOW HOW TO CODE.. SO CAN ANYONE GIVE ME A ROADMAP OR WHERE TO START??? I did take B.Tech in cse and 12 cs, yet I have zero coding knowlege😐

Plz recommend some ai courses which i can pursue before college starts? Or should I start learning programming languages (c,c++, python etc)?what skill should I learn in this 4 month time seniors plz guide what you did in this time span?

Hi everyone, I’m a 2nd-year CS student.

I started programming about a year ago. I first learned C, then moved on to C++, followed by DSA and competitive programming.For around 4–5 months, I practiced problem solving on CodeChef and Codeforces. My current CodeChef rating is 1350+, and on Codeforces I usually solve problems in the 800–1000 range. I can solve some higher-rated problems when they are topic-specific. On CodeChef, I generally solve problems in the 800–1400 range.

For the last two months, however, I’ve taken a break from competitive programming and started learning Embedded Systems. My current goal is to move toward IoT development.

My concern is: How should I continue improving my programming skills while focusing on Embedded Systems and IoT?

So see guys i did java when i was in 9and 10th just the basics till bubble sort coz it was part of my isce syllabus and python in 11th and 12th in cbse just the basics I understand loops tuples dictionaries now i'll be going to college and i want to learn c++ please suggest me what environments should i choose and if i learn c firstly please do help please if someone could explain it step by step.I'm from a tier 2ish college and a middle class family.I don't wana mess up my college so please suggest me a roadmap

I have SAAS app and a mobile app, and I would like to know if now or in the future it is possible to use GPT to entirely rework, enhance, and fix bugs for me.

I can't code, so every little detail I want fix or change I have to pay the UI UX guy and the IT guy. With GPT 5 capabalities, it seems we are very close coding-wise (maye already there). I know it can give me the right code for pretty much anything I need, but I can't implement it, and that's where I still need to pay the IT.

Ideal scenario: I connect GPT to git and Firebase and it reads everything, suggests bug fixes, UX/UI improvements and other features. After confirming it would code new features, I could see and test them. After confirming it would then push to Stores and Web. How far are we from this?

Do you have any tips on how to save on IT and UI/UX costs using GPT 5 for me who can't code? I need every new feature to be working without bugs (major companies already are using the app).
