Intro
I did my first programming course in my school days and performed well and excelled at it. But back then I did not realize my love and passion for programming and got my degree in Instrumentation Engineering. After that I started working full time as a Cyber Security Analysts. Here I was again introduced to the latest web development technologies in order to understand the web penetration methods. At this stage, I realized that I am really passionate in learning web development than anything else.
I started learning HTML, CSS and JS from scratch whenever I get some spare time. Then I was introduced to some amazing coding communities in Twitter. I started taking the #100DaysOfCode challenge to learn and log every single day. Now in almost 6 months, I learned a lot of new technologies and still persuing my coding passion without slowing down and learning every single day.
