I developed stuff for over ten years, and many concepts took me rather long to grasp. I poured in at least two years of programming courses in high school and four years of CS at university to gather some skills that some people would find "pay worthy."

Then I see some people getting the chance of a coding boot camp building production-ready software in less than a year.
