Ask HN: Self-taught developer What was the hardest part to get started?
Feel free to share relevant guides/links that can make other's life easier! This isn't going to be very helpful to you, so sorry for that... But for me, the hardest parts of getting started as a self-taught programmer, was copying TurboPascal onto floppy discs without the teacher noticing, and retyping code-listings from books borrowed from the library. Getting the work done. Get the work done. Do the work. Finish it.
