I started coding like 12 years ago using my mobile phone. Back then it was simple WML(a lite version of HTML for mobile phones) pages and I somehow managed to find resources to look at the source code of other websites and try to replicate things on my own and see how it works.

There have been some online editors where you could basically type code on your mobile phone using T9 keyword and get a result, which I basically did. Instead of copy/pasting things I had to write whole markup down on a paper :|

That's amazing Evaldas! I had no idea such a thing existed or that it was possible to do all this from your mobile phone. Do those resources still exist today?

I was very curious as a kid and somehow managed to find all these tools.

These resources probably no longer exist. Heck, I can't even remember how they were called anymore.

Yeah, so this is quite some nostalgia, but it's a very bright memory from my childhood.
