Summary:
My first meeting with coding was at age 13 when I wrote my first mobile app for windows phone using C#. It was a calculator app… The calculator that retrieved information from Yahoo Finance API to be able to calculate how much money you need to have to be able to buy a specific amount of stocks.
At age 15 I learned how to build websites and next couple of years I spent on sharpening my backend skills such as communication between websites and databases. Most of my projects were made for my friends and friends of family for no cost but sometimes I hired myself out as a freelancer which gave me a lot of different experiences and new knowledges. But I couldn’t get enough.
So at age 18 I decided that I want to come back to app development. I bought a MacBook and started coding in Swift. I learned it from bottom up, made small personal projects to get more experience and at age 19 I joined a startup company PopBy as a Co-founder and a Lead IOS developer.
