I really wish I could run Linux but almost all of the software I use for work is only on Windows.

But I will say I am decent in following instructions and using the cli. My mum’s system runs linux and that has been a learning experience.

My only real exposure to coding is C in Turbo C++ it was not a nice surprise when I later looked at other IDEs and was not sure where to begin. Maybe I’ll just get started with Turbo again lol.

Some linux iso management, some CAD software steps that I want to automate. My very general target is to get comfortable with trying to look up documentation, scripting and make my own code bashes for local use cases.

I remember a time in my life, back when I was trying to learn C. Every time I saw a problem my brain directly started breaking it down in to steps. How to solve this consistently, think about edge cases, etc.

I want to get that back!

Wow, thank you for the detailed response. I do have ideas for what kind of stuff to work on, especially after your great example. Thank you again!

How do I go about this? Are there any free resources that’ll help me get started?

I see people advising to start with a small project, but you need to get some basics down right? What language? How to develop it and stuff?

My only experience is some very basic C programming classes I took during school.
