I'm currently mentoring two people who started programming as a hobby after 30 and it's going really well. Programming is about two things: dexterity with tools (editors, operating system, log analysers, code versioning etc) and conceptual thinking (abstraction, planning, problem framing, problem solving). If you are interested in starting with programming, I suggest you pick a topic you care about as a hobby and progressively become more serious about it: - do you like web design? start a simple home page for a project - do you like DIY electronics? start with embedded programming - do you like gaming? start with one of the gaming engines - do you like phone/tablet apps? start with a low-code platform Also find someone to mentor you, ideally someone you can talk to in person or over a video chat. |
