Learn to solve problems using programming. Go learn Python. Stick with the basics and have fun. If you start worrying about losing older versions of your code, learn Git. Grow from there.

Kubernetes? Microservices? Cloud platform? These are all distractions and a waste of your time.

I used to have this enormous dev folder of projects. Some with git, some before I knew what it was.

I clinged and backed it up like crazy, until I actually looked at what was contained (spoiler: horrid code). Then I just got used to burning some old code. Now I'm often distracted by stuff like docker, kubernetes and that stuff

It's fun though, I've grown a bunch. but the setup sometimes does overscale badly

I have a personal project that was getting big and unruly, and I'm so happy I learned how to use Docker and converted all the little pieces into their own repos and containers.
That being said, I totally went down rabbit holes that didn't end up being helpful, like setting up my own CI/CD or trying to learn Kubernetes. They were totally overkill for me.
