Hello pls I need your opinions on this subject as it will be useful to me and several other youths out there.

I'm a self taught graphic designer and also serving currently as a corper. My hope is to learn this skill and be so good at it so I can use it to sustain myself after NYSC but recently I've been thinking of delving in to software development too to make myself more marketable as I realize the graphic design niche is almost saturated.

Now the first challenge is, I have zero knowledge about coding or any engineering or computer science course. Secondly, I've gone too far in graphic design that it will be near impossible for me to think of dropping it at this stage to pick up another skill..

Now that leads to my question, can I learn both at the same time at my own speed? And it's going to be self taught.

Also, what are my chances of having a good knowledge of any of the programming niches as a total novice in that field?

Instead of going to learn coding learn UI and ux design. There's very few good designers around and they are getting highly paid compared to devs even for beginners.

U cant learn both at same time.
