    My Front-End Development Journey: Why I Chose to Start a Programming Blog Welcome to my post about starting a programming blog and why I chose front end development! My name is Malie, and I’m excited to share my experiences, challenges, and progress with you as I dive deeper into programming and hopefully build a career…

This is how it all started…

Welcome to my journey! In September 2023, I tied the knot with my best friend, but just a month before, life threw us a curveball when both my husband and I lost our jobs. Faced with uncertainty and a desire for stability, I briefly ventured into wedding videography—but quickly realized it wasn’t my passion.

That’s when I rediscovered my love for coding, a skill I had long wanted to explore. With no budget for classes, I harnessed the power of free resources like freeCodeCamp and was thrilled to receive a scholarship from SheCodes Foundation.

Juggling a demanding job at a vape shop while immersing myself in coding has been a challenge, but every line of code has brought me closer to my dream career. This journey has taught me the value of resilience, and I’m eager to share the lessons I’ve learned, the projects I’m working on, and tips for balancing life, work, and learning.

Join me as I explore the transformative world of coding! If you’re curious about how to start your own coding journey or want insights into finding balance, my blog is here for you. Together, we can embrace the challenges and triumphs of this exciting path. Let’s inspire each other!
