- I believe anyone can learn to code, but it won't be as easy as social media makes it out to be. It's a difficult skill that can take years to become job-ready. Although it's difficult, all of the information is on the internet... they need to figure out how to find it :). don't give up!
0:00 coding is hard
1:16 choose a tech stack and stick to it
2:52 there’s no shortcut to learning
4:44 struggle is inevitable
6:59 it gets easier over time
7:41 do you need to like coding to become a software engineer?

Also, dont be scared to start with tutorials that showcase core features of languages or frameworks. I know there are some psychos that tell you the best way to learn is to start building a project, but this to me, is akin to telling someone that the best way to learn to swim by diving into the ocean...its just not going to work and you will be overwhelmed and end up drowning.
So take your time, start with the fundamentals, watch and read, take notes, try to implement small things for repetition purposes, rinse and repeat until you are comfortable enough to build a small toy project to test your skill. Once you feel more comfortable, move onto learning a particular tech stack and repeat the above steps again. Eventually you will get so comfortable that building larger projects beyond small toy ones are not as daunting as it seems.
Thank you for making this video! I’m just starting to learn programming and this was encouraging as well as informative :)
we need more people like him, fr
you deserve more followers
🤣😂🤣I liked this video a lot.. It made me to laugh so profusely that tears ran down, especially the part where you said you were in college - that image man is so awesome, I love that image . But it is true what you are implying. I finished HTML CSS and I'm about to finish JAVASCRIPT. I'm taking it one language at a time. I'm more into understanding the how's and why's... the concepts of each step. Functions are tricky and you need to dwell until you understand and make it your own thing
awesome! that's a good approach to take it slow and learn properly
functions were pretty difficult for me to understand at first too, but the more you use them, it becomes automatic
Well-explained 👏🏻
I am current struggle and depress about I wasted my 6 month class and still can't code properly in Html and Css.So it started to feel like maybe I am too dumb for this or I chose the wrong path but this video make me feel better .Thank you.
nice video❤
Good video
Is hard specially if you bad at math 😢
it's hard, but it will get easier as you spend more time on it 😊
I don't want to be jobless due to AI
I understand how you feel, especially since AI is prevalent in the media nowadays...
Other software engineers can chime in here as well. My take is that AI is not as good as people think. It does not work autonomously and currently, it's used as a tool to code faster. For me, it replaced googling / Stackoverflow. Software engineering is also not all about coding. It's about solving problems and communicating with others to align on issues. As you gain experience, you'll realize that writing code becomes the easy part of the job
@@jooweee your suggestion?
@@furqantarique3484 don't worry about things out of your control. I don't know your current situation, but if you want to become a software engineer, give it everything you have.
you can control your mindset and skills. focus on those and you will succeed
