Thanks @cryptoctopus for sharing your experience with us. I shared this post with a fledgling developer I show that he can hopefully start getting over that initial overwhelming feeling of “holy sh*t this is a lot to learn,” and start having some of those great “Aha!” moments.

Just wanted to let you know this is a great read and I hope it helps many more individuals that are considering pursuing a career in this field, take that first step to achieving their goals. Keep up the good work!
