When I first started learning to code, I had no idea what to expect. I remember sitting at my computer, staring at the terminal, wondering if I'd ever make sense of it all. But day by day, line by line, I started to understand. The moment when my first program worked - a simple 'Hello World' - I felt an incredible sense of achievement. That feeling has never gone away, even as the challenges have grown more complex. Through online courses, countless Stack Overflow searches, and many late nights, I've grown from a complete beginner to someone who can build real applications. The journey hasn't always been easy, but it has always been worth it.
