1000 Days of Coding in 10 Minutes ( Self-Taught Developer Journey )

This is my coding journey from day 0 that started somewhere mid 2019 to now at 2023.
All the projects that I have worked on and the many many mistakes that I made on this software developer journey.

If you watching this again, sorry for the reupload...KZbin set the video to 18+ I think it was because I tried to code in c++ ( self harm )

honestly the hardest part is finding projects that arent 1000 hours beyond your skill level

Takeaway #1 (0:49): Just get started. Takeaway #2 (3:55): Just try again. Takeaway #3 (5:55): Avoid tutorial hell. Takeaway #4 (6:50): Just solve problems you have with code.

[@Nobleoasis27]

in short: JUST DO IT

[@AnthonyIle]

New into coding, this video just inspired me to continue. Its practical and real live journey and experience, as u shared it, was just what I needed.

[@killestone]

Good charisma, short video, good visuals, a great inspiration, i loved it. Also very good job learning to code, i'll do my best to learn by myself too.

I was working on a nextjs + firebase project from scratch and I was almost about to give up on that due to many hindrances and thought I am not capable enough to code this. And the timing of your video was so epic you completely motivated me to keep on working on my project and today's it's more than half completed. I really really liked your content and will be waiting for the new ones's from you. All the best man.

[@looyd]

You got this, at some moments all I did was 20-30 minutes a day, sometimes I spent multiples hours... just got to do it

[@bilalcinal3740]

hi dude, i am a junior developer from turkey and i just discovered the channel, you have produced good content, congratulations

[@Rachit-i9s]

what an amazing video! Great editing by the way

[@PowerfulJayKay]

One of the best videos I've watched on coding, and I've watched 1000's. Very inspirational and I will take what you said on board and just start making my own project to solve my own problems. this video is exactly what I needed!

[@looyd]

Thank you! Just make stuff

[@goo1126]

Not throwing shade or anything but seeing you're inefficient journey makes me feel so good about where im at and is giving me heaps of motivation (sorry but thankyou )

[@looyd]

I agree... looking back it was pretty bad BUT I didnt do this full time, it was a side thing I did while I was working in my main job that was in 3D

[@nqowothando]

Thank you . This is a MASTER class in learning coding. Your story can save millions of those wanting to learn software development

[@looyd]

That is very nice of you to say

Hey llyod I just stumbled on your videos, and all I can say is that I can't get enough man.

Thank you!

I love the fun way you make your videos! I think you are a fantastic video editor!

This video inspired me to start my coding journey again, now currently working through the Simon Game section of the full web dev bootcamp by Angela Yu, amazing course recommendation! Really has reignited my passion for it and kept me consistent. Thank you!

[@looyd]

Agreed, just note for others, make sure to get the discount code ,it shouldnt cost more then $10

[@rixiofn3204]

how to get the discount code because the price now is 75$@@looyd

[@sma_bari]

it was fun going through your journey

Bro Thanks for this video may be the most important video for new developers.

[@gyangaha109]

I'm hyped bro. Thanks

[@googotygame]

I started self studying coding in 6th grade. Starting with a simple search of "which coding language is the easiest to learn". Then, I found a few free coding apps on my ipad and started learning. Firstly I picked up js, then html and css. Then I learned python. And moved on to Arduino by learning c++. I also used the solving problem approach to practice my python skill by solving math problems like probabilities. I don't plan to become a web developer or any IT people but this programming skill has surely helped me with my study of mathematics, which is my interest. I also plan to code a 2d physics engine to help with my physics study.

[@looyd]

Are you stil studying? This sounds cool

[@ayanavabag3974]

Real journey is different from imagined. Takeaways : 1. Just Get Started 2. Just try Again - Don’t give up, take rest if needed. 3. Learn to some goal or challenge in mind. 4. Avoid tutorial Hell - Solves problem + just go through some video and blog don’t overdo. 5. Solve more problem that excites.

1000 days is a reasonable expectation id say, I am maybe 600 days in (with an 8 month gap) but by day 1000 I am pretty confident I will be in a decent spot

[@plush1993]

Great video dude

[@kamil8263]

My first choice was c++, and that was the best choice. I learned basics of programming + basics of how computers work. Then I switched to web development (html, css, js). Then I started learning backend and microservices (apis, doker, nodejs). In the mean time I learned basics of git, github and networking.

[@lamineemb]

Nice bro , stay consistent :D

[@looyd]

You are in tutorial hell

[@jst8922]

In your case "tutorial hell period" was just another name to learn what is under the hood. I guess time well spent, especially if you touched DSA.

[@Rohit-cj6eb]

It's hell if you just learn rather than implementing it to solve real world problems

[@funnyduck6326]

For not spending time for long time, choose the way where you expect to coding, just some month, try different languages, I know only web, three ways, FrontEnd, BackEnd, Mobile, learn Git - need everywhere For Front - HTML, CSS, JS - TS, Frameworks(React, Vue, Angular) - when you know constructions of something, just did any projects like a google it what do you like more. For Back - Go, Java, C#, Python, SQL For Mobile, Swift or Kotlin

[@mutasimahmed8975]

Remember me when you become big !

[@nsdario438]

I don't know if I'm in the tutorial hell, I just spend 2 months trying to create the most hard project that I have ever made, but it seems like it's too much for me and I'm not sure if I'm learning or just copy things from some tutorials

Quitting coding after the C++ course is so real

Hey nice video. But I can't skip that part the Arduino isn't exactly a small computer. I mean it's like you can call it a microprocessor or microcontroller but it's not computer. Raspberry Pi is a computer but Arduino, not exactly. Love from Turkiye brother nice video never stop posting videos 🎉🎉

Yes, you are right

[@joshuadeguzman2911]

I burst when you say monkey brain. 🤣

[@cristianyahirmejiacruz5495]

Lol I also started to learn code bc of arduino at HS. I gave up because my teachers weren’t the best and I lack motivation to do it myself. This week I finally decided to start. This inspired me to contact cus I want to code not for web dev and to be a software engineer tbh I find that boring. I want to code to do cool stuff like game dev or robotics stuff for example arduino. I want to learn but my motivation just dies out. In my head I know it is my fault for not trying and there is nothing to blame but myself but each time I start reading I just feel tired and motivation just shuts down.

[@looyd]

If you wana try Arduino, start making something you would use in your home, like a door lock with a pin or self watering plant... basicly something you would want and use everyday. Maybe ask your mom and dad what they are having a issue with and try fix that with code.

[@jiulh]

5:10 - maybe it's me, but would fit more the change of background there. since you don't actually show the camera often and the effect doesn't save

did you get a job after this long journey

Hi bro! First of all, great video! It's really interesting to hear the story of someone who has gone to the same process as you. You've inspired me to make my own video on my programming journey.

I started with Small Basic. And then I learned VB, C, C++, C#, Swift, Java, Python and finally R. And then I traveled the 🌎 world 8 months. Meanwhile I learned Thai Box, Aikido, Krav Maga, Ottoman Slap, Kung Fu and Kamasutra. And then I learned HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Firebase, Tailwind, Haskell, Rust and Delphi. Now I bought a house with a pool in Japan and I swim naked with Japanese girls and the artificial intelligence writes my codes and I control them.😎
