I'm 19, I want to learn programming, I know basics but I don't know what to do now, I have no idea for project and I don't know if I want to be web developer or mobile developer etc because nothing interests me what to do?

Right now you just want to think of some experiments you can do with programming. Start simple though. See how little code you can write with the highest efficiency. Read some books on the topic. Just getting experience with coding is the best thing you can do right now

>>22004610 CS major here I would try learning js or something from a coding education website. If from there you feel like you do enjoy it you can go to school for it. To be honest though, it's very important that you interested in programming if you want to go into it as a career - there's plenty of people I know who are just in it for the money and they burn out very quickly. Just force yourself to make something, anything - don't be worried about confining yourself to a subset of the tech, as you're gonna have to learn a lot more anyways

>>22004610 I'm an android developer. Just pick something and stick to it. But in general there are more web dev jobs. Work is work, don't expect it to be enjoyable or your passion.
