And what’s currently the most in-demand language/skill?
*I’m looking for an Android app.
Those apps aren’t helpful sadly. The best way to learn programming is by making things. The apps can make you think you’re learning syntax, apis, OOP, a language, or other concepts but the second you’re asked to make something or apply your knowlage it’s all useless.
app? lol
Get on a computer with a keyboard and mouse, and go to freecodecamp.com
Go in order until you’re done with React and you can be a junior front end developer.
Writing your own!
Jokes aside, the best way to learn is to start writing your own program/app and follow website tutorials
Does GCC count?
Cobol.
It’s still in use and all the people who know it are dying or already dead.
On the other hand, I think if you are approaching your career through popularity and not your own talent, you are not going very far in your career.
For someone learning programming from zero, it was specifically invented to be:
Hedy is the easy way to get started with textual programming languages! Hedy is free to use, open source, and unlike any other textual programming language in three ways.
- Hedy is multi-lingual, you can use Hedy in your own language
- Hedy is gradual, so you can learn one concept and its syntax a time
- Hedy is built for the classroom, allowing teachers to fully customize their student’s experience
Adding to the points above:
At the end of the gradual progression, Hedy becomes vanilla Python.
An aspect of the 3rd point is having an online editor & execution environment, so you don’t need to deal with setup.
After completing the Hedy lessons, can follow up with other learning resources like freecodecamp.org or codeacademy.com.
Understood. Could you recommend me a good course, then? I’d like to use these IT skills to eventually find a job in Europe. What field looks most promising to you?
