Everything You Need To Start Coding

So what do you ACTUALLY need to start learning how to code? As a beginner coder you may be super overwhelmed with all of the information out there and not know how to break things down to the basics.
Despite what it may seem, getting started with coding does not take a ton of equipment, knowledge or traditional education. All you need are the things I mention in this video and a little discipline to get going!
Keep it simple. The sooner you start the sooner you can advance!

When I was teaching myself to code, the thing that really helped me was printing out the job posting for my ideal role, and writing a deadline date on it as to when I hoped to get that job, or just make the career switch. Then, I taped it in front of my desk where I saw it everyday. Kept me going lol. I made the switch one month before that deadline!

[@nicoleyoungtech]

I LOVE THAT IDEA. Write the vision! Definitely going to do that for my goals as well. Thanks for sharing

[@natpaler883]

What a great idea!!

[@thabanidube7314]

Where u learning to code from scratch ?

I’m glad you mentioned the why, the motivation.

[@SpaceTacos60316]

Thanks so much for this!! I kinda wish I had found your video first but I'm glad I found it at all!! Brand new to coding, possibly older than anyone else here, taking the self-taught adventure and thinking Python is the way to go!! Off to catch the rest of your Beginner Coding series!! Thanks again for sharing.

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Excited for you!

[@eb.4492]

I love the music that you added!

Thanks so much 🤙🏾💪🏾🙏🏾👌🏾

[@nicoleyoungtech]

My pleasure hope it was helpful

[@grandrisereflections6823]

I have seen videos on (automatic house printing machine) If I could remember the machine has something to do with coding that makes it build automatically, that what I need to create. And your a beautiful queen btw❤️

[@thewildhoneybee]

I definitely need help fine tuning which direction I want to go into when it comes to coding, and I’m definitely going to check out your content to see if it explains things in more detail.

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Rooting for you!

[@wendyetafo4635]

Your contents are so useful and motivating 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Wow so happy you think so!!

[@spiffymisfit2013]

I’m learning so much and I really enjoy your videos. ❤️

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Thank you so much, sis! I so appreciate it. Let me know if there is anything specific you want me to do a video on!🤟🏾🖤

[@spiffymisfit2013]

nicole . young you’re welcome and I would say for a video some tips for beginners getting into tech with no experience or a story time on your first time coding successfully.

[@ioanaa285]

Thank you :)

[@nicoleyoungtech]

My pleasure! Hope you found some value in it!

[@whitwhitney1274]

I love your channel! Very inspiring 😊 keep up the good work!

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Thank you so much!

[@grandrisereflections6823]

I learned thru research Python is a general-purpose programming language, so it can be used for many things. Python is used for web development, AI, machine learning, operating system. Which one did you choosed to code in . if Im even asking it correctly. I feep python coding and coding is two different things still.

[@zakiyaelmalika]

Thank you so much for sharing all these tips Nicole. Truly appreciate it. I’d love to get in touch with you and potentially connect if possible. I have absolutely NO technology background whatsoever but I am aware of the different types of entry level roles there are with a lower barrier of entry. What are some tools/resources that you would recommend? Are there some free academy’s that I can learn from that you’ll can share? Also what do you think the timeline would be for someone to learn about the different types of coding and language that would benefit me.

[@nicoleyoungtech]

I am so glad that you are getting something meaningful from it sis! I would love to connect! I am very active on Instagram feel free to shoot me a DM on there!

[@jailj6584]

Hey! I’m just as new as you, I know this post is old but if you’re looking for someone just as clueless and willing to make some steps toward learning we could always do buddy check ins! Looking for a study group to creat now!

[@kevinwafula12]

​ you are right. here ready to join

[@CissedFit]

Hi - I am in the health field and would like to know what direction I should take as a beginner who wants to learn code and what to focus on.

[@ashleywiggins8391]

Hello my name is Ashley and I wanted to know would this be a good field to go into so I can work from home and eventually home school my kids

[@gilbertawudja403]

Thank you Nicole for sharing all these. Please i need help to find what area of coding i can choose

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Please dm me on IG! I would love to help

[@12degreesnowman11]

I know you need a text editor but what do you need to actually implement these languages? Like what software is used to actually do the coding?

[@richardmalinga8217]

I love this content

[@nicoleyoungtech]

So glad you are here:)

[@grandrisereflections6823]

Coding is when you program instructions on a circuit board for a certain machine to do such good things right? I need to code a machine on how to make water instantly from the air itself for one. and lots more, I bet it's already a thing tho. Im just getting back educated on coding starting with this channel.

[@derricksr25]

Did you read any books if so what where they?

[@sarahtara]

I love your energy! Please do share the resources you used to learn the differences between front end and back end coding. I am looking to make a career shift and I'm swimming in the ocean of options. Life raft please

[@nicoleyoungtech]

You got it! I’ve been taking a few days off with everything going on but I will share some helpful things!

[@sarahtara]

nicole . young Thank you!

[@coachalanatanksley6474]

What resources did you use to figure out what direction you wanted to go in?

[@nicoleyoungtech]

It was really just a lot of trying things and researching for me.

[@estherjoseph4892]

Can you talk about the areas of coding and what you can use code for.

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Definitely have this on my list of new videos!

[@kayla.latrice]

What type of computer (preferably cheap) do you think works best for coding? I have a chromebook but I would like to upgrade.

[@nicoleyoungtech]

I actually got started on a Chromebook with Ubuntu downloaded! However if you will be using a downloaded text editor or IDE I think that most basic laptops will do. My suggestion is to go with something with a comfortable keyboard and a good amount of space so that you don't run into problems as you start saving large coding files. In my experience the average computer is suited for getting started in code.

[@paulngoma8216]

Is it possible one can make a code for a device that can be used to put on domestic animals as detectors to prevent theft

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Absolutely! I believe things like that may already exist (like the chips placed in animals at shelters). I would look into the tech of those chips and see what languages are used to program them.

[@Two_js]

iyour video is motivating!..! I really wanna learn how to code but really dont know how to start...plss be my guide🙏

[@faithwalk.]

Hi, can you share the different avenues you can get in with coding?

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Yes! Going to be doing an updated video on this soon

[@elmagnificentparaseleneemp7918]

Please I need help in figuring my path in coding

[@nicoleyoungtech]

If you still need help please find my on IG and DM me. Happy to help

[@graceoyugi2910]

Based on ur opinion, ,,which language do u prefer to a beginner

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Hi Grace! I usually suggest beginners pick either Python or JavaScript because they are versatile, widely used languages that tend to be beginner friendly compared to others

[@chinecheremezeuba3308]

I am finding it difficult to decide which branch of coding to venture into

[@nicoleyoungtech]

I completely understand the feeling! I’ve been there. My best advice is to just start with something. The one that feels like the best choice right now. Then you can shift as you begin to learn until you find the right fit

[@JayleePlanz]

Is there a coding class for cryptocurrency or blockchain?

[@nicoleyoungtech]

I'm not 100% sure but if there is one it would either be on udemy.com or edx.org they usually have the best selection and edx is free!

[@graceoyugi2910]

How can I learn to code if I'm a total beginner,,,😕

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Check out some of my videos on free and affordable resources. That is where I started when I didn't know anything about coding and they helped so much!

[@graceoyugi2910]

So ,,,how did you know that your passion was coding

[@soloistnina9889]

What type of apple computer do you have?

[@nicoleyoungtech]

MacBook Pro 💻

[@ijusdomee9377]

Learning python now.

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Love that! Python is the most popular language right now and I don't see that changing any time soon. Keep at it and let me know if you ever have questions or need someone to vent to along the way. I'm here.

[@joywing8]

[@tayyyyyy5115]

I typed in Nicole young to see dr dres wife and came across this 😂

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Lol I would be lying if I said the same thing didn't happen to me before

[@adabujiki]

wtf she's just on here rapping ? when are you going to get to work? show us some shit... i knew this was going to be some soft shit when i saw a macbook. you cant do shit on a macbook but edit photos smh... Lol lil pretty girl talking about some coding

[@nicoleyoungtech]

Daniel! No need to cuss bro! For some people the hard part is the getting started and prepped which is the point of this video. But You can 100% code anything on a Mac that you can on a PC. Most of the devs I know and myself use them.

[@adabujiki]

@@nicoleyoungtech -_- yeaah but you never actually coded lol.. we didn't even see ur wallpaper, not to mention you actually typing a code. You did however have an extended keyboard lol so yeah that's kinda the vibe but ehhhh u gotta pretty macBook so it doesn't count... When you start using Machines made by Alienware or MSI or ASUS or ASER, then u serious about coding.. Macs are for pretty pics not back end techy stuff... do you know how to code babes ? ehhh... ion think so.. stick to ur girl power and coffee attractive coffee mugs. leave this nerdy stuff for those who are about that life... ur not about that life. but u look good tho hehe
