Regardless of what language/platform he chooses your friend really needs to have a passion for this if he is to adequately self tech him self. By a show of hands, how many got into software development for the pay? I should see very few hands. Most of us are here because the idea of building something from scratch and seeing it to fruition was very appealing.
Whenever someone comes to me about getting into programming. I tell them they should think of an idea they think is awesome and start building it.
- germs12 13y agoThis is exactly how I got in to programming. It was desire to tinker and play with tech as well as the joy of creating something on my own that others valued. Only after working in the field and getting raises that brought my salary higher than I had ever expected did I start to think of software development as a field where money can be made. I had blinders on.
