Started at 13 thanks to some course that taught programming to beginners with a Java IDE and that's where it all started. However, back then it was too advanced for me so I left the programming scene right after I ended that course and continued with other things like Photoshop and Blender in the following years.
The years passed and I wanted to set up a forum for some friends and me and discovered php & SQL databases. I set up the forum and several other C.M.Systems and eventually started coding some simple poop in HTML, php, CSS and fetched data from a MySQL database.
In the past few years, I wanted to know how windows worked and how programs were made but I did not want to code in anything similar to the Java IDE because it left me with a bad impression as a kid. So I read some reviews about what languages were the best performance-wise and that left me with asm and C/C++. I still continue learning these to this day but code more programs in C than asm because asm can get tedious fast and I mostly do this for fun and my spare time is not unlimited.
A few months ago I started trying to learn about OpenGL and networking and that's where I'm at today.
By the way, right now it feels like it will take a few more years until I will be able to create anything productive in C/C++.. Has anyone had this feeling? Any tips on this?
