Presentation

Many ask me how I started development, what training did I take and why did I start? Here is the article that allows you to discover everything.

Summary

  • How did it all begin?
  • And the web in all this?
  • What training did I follow?
  • What am I capable of achieving today?
  • How do I see my future in this area?
  • Conclusion

1. How did it all start?

Being a video game player and very curious, I inquired about how a video game worked. At that time I was playing Minecraft, so I discovered the existence of development and my first programming language: Java. So I wanted to add my personal touch and my creativity to the community. Therefore, I learned to use this language, the syntax, and all that goes with it. So I installed my first development environment and started with very small projects.

2. And the web in all this?

It was much later that I became aware of the vastness of the web domain. As I got interested in this new field, I learned new programming languages: JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. These languages were much easier to learn because I had a good foundation in programming. I trained as much in Front as in Back development. The Front results in the interface of the application being visible to a user and the Back the part invisible and inaccessible to a user.

3. What training did I take?

When I started, I took a course on OpenClassrooms to learn Java syntax. In addition, I bought myself a big book, a very big 400-page book called Programming in Java. I acquired new functionalities such as the principles of object programming for example. Today, I mostly learn on my own using the Internet and development discord servers. Recently, I have been taking training on Udemy in particular to learn Go and Docker. Finally, I also use YouTube to follow more or less technical tutorials.

4. What am I able to achieve today

Currently, I can make entire web applications, both the Back and the Front. As mobile and office applications are based on the same technologies, I also know how to develop applications of this type. To see all my skills mastered, please visit my About page, in the Technical Skills section.

5. How do I see my future in this field?

I am currently asking myself a lot of questions about my future in development and my professional future. So I attend a lot of computer conferences and do a lot of research. Lately, I learned about an area that I knew only vaguely. It was a great interest that immediately developed in this area because it meets all my expectations, and I think I will thrive in this area a lot!

6. Conclusion

Now you know everything about my beginning and my journey. I hope I have answered all your questions and that you know how to start your journey! I am available for all your additional questions!
