My Programming Journey: From Zero to MERN Stack
January 15, 20245 min read
When I started my engineering journey at Ideal Institute Of Engineering in 2024, I had no idea that programming would become such a passion of mine. Looking back, I can see how each step led me to where I am today.
The Beginning
My first encounter with programming was through C language in my college curriculum.
```c #include <stdio.h>
int main(void) { printf("Hello, World!\n"); return 0; } ```
That tiny program opened a whole new world.
Discovering Web Development
After C came the web trio:
- HTML for structure
- CSS for style
- JavaScript for interactivity
Why MERN?
- JavaScript everywhere – frontend and backend
- Huge community and learning resources
- Industry demand for MERN developers
- Scalable architecture for modern apps
Current Focus
I'm building a YouTube clone to sharpen full-stack skills, with extra attention on backend logic.
This is just the beginning — stay tuned for more! ```
