Yasss! I love how this illustrates the fact that anyone can get into coding.

I've tried helping career-stuck people learning to code and build apps, but I've found it difficult teaching them everything from the ground up.

As a mostly self taught developer, I do believe it's just matter of dedication and sheer will though, and thank you for proving that right.

Thank you... yes, Persistence! There are many challenges along the way where I came soooo close to giving up.

There is no magic going on. If something works or doesn’t work, it’s in the code.

I think successful musicians already know this struggle so luckily I kept struggling through the hard parts.

Love the analogy, it does feel like that with music indeed!
