Personally, I started off with Roblox back in the early 2010s, and taught myself Lua. I really liked those Tycoon games, and wanted to see how they worked.

I eventually found Minecraft (like every kid back in the day did), and learnt Java to make Bukkit server mods.

Around 2016 I thought websites were kinda cool, so I started learning HTML, CSS, and JS, and I've been in the web dev space ever since.

What about the rest of y'all? What's your personal programming path?

Started two years ago with Roblox! Fun how most start there. I stick with it for now as the platform got huge, and its much easier to find new players these days on Roblox compared to other platforms looking at how most indie devs struggle to get paid. I made 300 usd from my first crappy game (a game in which you deepfried youtubers) so I figured it was worth a shot lol. Currently building a pirate game as Ive always felt there arent enough pirate rpg games these days. 🏴‍☠️
