It's good to show what's possible but it isn't fun and will bore them to death fast because it's very limiting for beginners.

Every professional has an origin story, something that made them want to slog through years of practice to get to where they are. I can think of many ways to spark people's interest in cooking or music, but programming seems a bit harder to me. I never thought about why I love it, let alone why others should. How would you do that?
