RE: Let us all Start Coding

in #mspl • 8 years ago

I've been programming for right about 30 years now and if I were starting today I'd definitely start with JavaScript.

Coming from more of a traditional background JavaScript took me a while to wrap my head around... but the more I have worked with it the more I like it.

That last paragraph is a great reason to pick JavaScript as a first language.

I primarily program with php... but I'd still recommend JavaScript as a first language unless you want to focus on some particular platform or software that uses a specific language (e.g. web programming using the WordPress platform pretty much requires PHP).

    That's true @tony.jennings, I also primarily work on C#, but I always recommend everyone who is starting to code to start with JavaScript or Python. Thanks for the great comment :)
