How'd you get into programming? (beehaw.org)

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?

Necessity. I hate having to program, but there are many things I want or need that simply do not have a ready made solution. One example was writing a program to sync my off-brand RF controlled RGBW LED lights to the day/night cycle.
