You’ve probably seen the craze for learning code. But what exactly is coding?
Coding is what makes it possible for us to create computer websites,
apps and softwares. Your browser, your OS, the apps on your phone,
Facebook, and this blog– they’re all made with code.
Learning coding empowers you to do a lot of stuff you would not otherwise be able to do. These things include crafting your own website, becoming a coder or even starting a technology business. Most importantly, you’ll be able to understand the technology shaping your world very well.
You have certainly heard or read somewhere that everyone needs to learn coding, right? Well, people say that for a reason! Whether you’re looking for a career in the industry, starting a new hobby or just wanting to understand technology, you can benefit from learning coding.
Here are some of the things that learning coding can empower you to do:
If you own a business, a website is a must. If you don’t, you still may want a personal blog or portfolio site to sell your products or skills to employers. Your ability to create and maintain a website is severely limited unless you learn HTML and CSS code, the code that all websites run on.
Looking for a career change? The humble computer programmer is quite possibly one of the most underrated professions out there. The demand for coders far exceeds the supply, so you’ll have no troubles finding a job. In fact, it’s projected to grow at a rate of 30% between 2010 and 2020. That’s twice as fast as most other jobs.
This is the biggest benefit of all, and the one that will apply to you no matter who you are or why you’re interested in learning code. After all, you use the Internet, mobile phones, computers and software in your daily life. Isn’t it kinda strange that you do not fully understand how these technologies work?
Understanding how software and coding works is definitely valuable for anyone, in any walk of life. On the next posts, you’ll get a glimpse into how coding really works.
