The Beginning of My Programming Journey (2022)
I wanted to get into programming or something programming-adjacent, perhaps using my enjoyment of teaching and helping people create things. I had a few ideas for apps, so I thought I’d begin my journey working toward making an app that would be useful to my interests.
The closest thing to programming experience I have is reading half a chapter of Learning Python and building a website in HTML & CSS for my handmade purses 15 years ago. I googled for text editors to use with Clojure, and since I don’t want to spend time learning emacs, IntelliJ, etc, I thought Atom or VS Code would be good, based on betweentheparens.com’s suggestions. I’m a gosh darn character in a RPG sandbox, and I don’t know if that lump on the ground is a turd or an apple, but I’m going to guess, try, evaluate, repeat until I figure it out.
