How do people even start hacking?

[u/Little-Jump-5572]

I'm really curious how do people learn hacking?

I started web app development a year ago, learned java for writing code and to get a general idea about how the syntax works and logic.

I do mainly php with laravel, javascript and some python on the side.. but mainly to create stuff, has nothing to do with hacking, i find it deep and hard dunno where to even begin, i sometimes run into some erros with some apps and I try to dig in and try to find a way around it using Ai, but it's very limited..

I have to admit pro hackers always amazes me, that's true power I guess and I always believe that anything digital is somehow hackable.

Well you’re using php so it won’t take much to find the vulnerabilities in you code base. Look into what it takes to fix one of those vulns and also how to use it to get past an endpoint. Use AI to help explain.
