Learn Programming by Yourself

Introduction

Are you looking for the best way to learn programming by yourself? If so, this article will give you some great tips on where to start. There are many different ways that people learn, but here we’ll discuss the most effective ways to become a programmer.

Start with a web application

To start learning programming, you should try to build a web application. Web applications are easy to understand and use, because they’re used every day by millions of people around the world.

You can find many tutorials and courses on how to build web applications. They’ll guide you through all the basic building blocks of a web application: HTML, CSS and JavaScript (or “JS”). However, if you have no previous experience with these languages or technologies, I recommend reading our tutorial on how to learn HTML & CSS first because it covers most things that will be useful for building your first website.

Watch videos for beginners

There are several good places to find beginner-level computer programming tutorials. The best ones will teach you how to get started and then build from there, so it’s important to choose one that strikes your fancy. Here are a few popular options:

• YouTube – You might not think of YouTube as a prime spot for learning anything, but it actually has some great channels devoted to teaching beginners how to code. Check out “CodeNewbie,” which offers a free crash course on Python; or “Code with Chris” for an introduction into JavaScript; or “The Coding Train” for Ruby-focused videos.
• Udemy – This site offers hundreds of courses from top instructors around the world and some of them are free! It’s also great because you can search by topic (like HTML or Ruby) as well as skill level (beginner). The downside is that Udemy typically charges money after the first week if you want access beyond your initial trial period.
• Lynda – This website works similarly to Udemy in that it provides access to many high-quality video courses taught by industry experts at an affordable price ($25/month). However, Lynda isn’t just limited to web development: they have over 700+ topics covering everything from music production and digital photography through coding languages such as Python, Javascript and Swift! Plus they offer bite-sized 10 minute sneak peeks alongside longer 30 minute sessions – perfect for someone who wants more flexibility when learning online!

Read a book to teach yourself

• Books are great because they give you the theory and concepts behind computer programming. They also explain syntax and show you how to use specific tools.
• Books can teach you how to work in teams, which is something I personally find difficult (and it’s not just me a lot of people struggle with this). 

Pursue an accredited degree

Why pursue an accredited degree?

If you want to get started in the field, then you may be wondering if getting a degree is necessary. The answer is yes and no. While it’s not absolutely required to get hired as a developer, having one can help your career in several ways:

• It shows that you are committed to the field and willing to learn more about it.
• It creates opportunities for networking with other developers who are working toward similar goals in their careers.
• It gives companies more confidence in hiring someone with proven skills and knowledge of their craft.

Learn by yourself and make sure to apply 

The best way to learn how to program is by doing it.

The first thing you can do is choose a web application that will get you started. Some good options include:

• Codecademy’s PHP track
• Udacity’s Intro to Programming course

Once you’ve chosen a language, watch some videos for beginners and read a book on it. Then start building something! You’ll find that the more you practice, the easier it gets.

If all else fails, pursue an accredited degree in computer science or software engineering—but not just any degree will do; make sure that your institution offers courses in object-oriented programming, data structures and algorithms (C++ or Java languages), operating systems and networks (C++/Java platforms), database management systems (SQL) and artificial intelligence (Natural Language Processing).
