First blog post...

Imagine entering a class for the first time and the instructor told you to come out, introduce yourself and tell the class about something you did recently with time lol 75% of you reading this will be intimidated, shy and uncomfortable while some of you might be confident. so as similar to this story i'm the new student and the instructor is dev.to while the classmates are you reading this right now and i hope am part of the small percentage of the confident ones
i'm Wilfred chukwu but you can call me fredcode. i am computer science student(almost done) but i'm really interested in web development and web scrapping. i'm currently living in the Philippines but i'm from Nigeria by birth

1) WHY AM I HERE?
Actually i read dev.to,freecodecamp,hackernoon and techcrunch blogs regularly to get inspired and see the amazing impact of programming community
so i decided to start my blog talk about my experiences, projects and journey as an aspiring web developer

2) WHY DO I CODE OR EVEN BOTHER TO STRESS MY LIFE WITH BUGS?
i wrote my first code at the age of 17, obviously yes a "hello, world" program with C language and what really made me interested in coding was the possibility of building amazing stuffs to either impact people's lives or have just have fun with. when i log on the internet or my phone and see all this apps and software out there i always have this feeling of building my own software or app would be mind blowing.

3) WHAT VALUE DO I PLAN ON GIVING YOU?
when i started to code as a beginner i would have loved to read blogs documenting how the owner built his/her projects and the struggles they had overcome to fix the bugs and also detailed information of what they learned or improved on while making their project..... now thats exactly what i'm going to be doing.

(referring back to the story at the beginning) thank you my fellow classmates for listening to me and i hope i was articulated and confident too.
