I wanted to run a forum like nairaland many years ago. Having succeeded with the forum. There was need for modification and features I like on the site which was difficult to explain. Then the urge to implement it myself drive me onto hurt for dev knowledge. As a self thought it was not easy frustration and sleepless night begging people online to help me. They will never do it for you but only ask you to paste you code and see how to direct you or make your corrections. The forum was a bad idea the project died. But the knowledge I gained Never lost and I further develop it and using it to make a living since then. Getting to a decade. It was just destiny. When Destiny force is pursuing you it very strong and a hardcore desire. Don't neglect it go for it. |

Lalami3232: How did u went on to become a software engineer after studying computer science. Like did u achieve it by studying software engineering at masters level. Someone was telling me that software engineering is better than studying computer science. According to him computer science is ordinary and doesn't have the engineering tag attached to it unlike software engineering. He said the even in developed country, that firms tend to appreciate and prefer someone who studied software engineering compared to a computer science graduate, that computer science has more limitations compared to software engineering. Please what is your view on this, how true is this? Is studying software engineering better than studying computer science |

Chloraseptic:as a beginner, remove your mind from the money and the money from your mind, and psych yourself that you will be committed to learning even when it’ll look frustrating. Then you can proceed and start from the basics - html, css , JavaScript and mix it up with a JavaScript library such as react. Then you can decide if you want to also learn backend stuff too. But I suggest you learn the beginning and the fundamental concepts first . Also practice daily cos the more you type out the codes ( pls never copy and paste as a beginner) you develop the memory on how to go about it. |

The fact that I can create something from scratch and it goes on to solve a problem. Although I studied a different course in the university, worked for over 4 years in the financial sector, but today I'm doing what I've always wanted to do which is coding. |

Alusiizizi: Don't mind those lazy heads. They claim that Nigerian Universities don't teach them anything about programming when that is a fat lie. Even if the programming language is BASIC or FORTRAN, these so-called Computer Science grads cannot write a line of code (or pseudocode) despite allegedly graduating from our universities that "teach old languages" |

The pay intrigued me I've actually learnt some other digital skills before but I'm not the social type so I find it difficult practicing it, staying online all day posting stuff to gather audience isn't my thing. Same time there are also some other aspect of that skills that corelate with coding. So as I delve into coding I've been able to develop interest other than the money, I've developed passion for it, it's about merging stuffs to develop long term ideas. |

qtguru: Do you still hold the same opinion you posited here https://okeowoaderemi.com/articles/posts/wordpress-to-processwire-a-guide-for-developers/ 7 years ago? I think WP has proven with time it is the best CMS, and with the best user and developer communities too across the internet. P.S: You should consider fixing your SSL or changing the certificate. It keeps showing Error 404 or privacy issues. |

Learning coding for me started recently infact I am not through with HTML yet but what opened my eyes to coding is the broad opportunity of what you can achieve as a web developer and I hate the idea of getting fix to a work that is time constraint 9-5 (mon-fri) as a web developer I could do away and with this. Lastly what my bosses at other work I have done showed me makes me want to erase the idea of working under someone. I want to be independent |
