An AI Programmer with ADHD and Learning Difficulties a long journey.

As a person with cognitive functions like ADHD and Learning Difficulties as a programmer aka coder is sometimes difficult to understand instructions and new coding languages or read other people's code. The journey into a lifestyle of learning coding has made me want to give up on learning coding, but I push through because I want the challenge on my brain.

This research from High School Insider shows that coding allows the brain to practice difficult cognitive problem-solving tasks that help improve the overall ability to solve problems.premium_photo-1663100722417-6e36673fe0ed.avif

Make sure you have the right community of people and online support to push through your journey of learning coding because this is not something that you cannot do alone.

Coding is not one man or woman job is collaborative. You talk with a person who has been alone on this journey for most all his life trying to figure out coding and debugging, but one thing that keeps pushing me was my beloved community online and in person.

Yes, we need more problem solvers in today's world. To help improve the BOCIP Communities and those living with people with disabilities without problem-solvers the world will be in a state of constant struggle and difficulty. Problems would go unsolved, and challenges would be left unaddressed that is why we need to train our brains hard to become better a problem solving.

I have learned from other coders and senior developers that you have to spend excessive time analyzing specific issues but most of the time seasoned developers tend to strike a balance between thorough analysis and practical decision-making.

As a result, most clients get quick and fast results when it comes to projects and assignments that you are working on. If the project or assignment is too large and does not work, you can use No-Code Tools and Site Builders instead of hiring a web developer to do it for you.

However, some things cannot be done, but most of this has technological advances, and web design will be the easiest for everyone to do themselves, from simple to complex projects AI Technology gets much easier to create, build, and launch for the consumers.

Our focus is for the technical people or our support team and learn how to become better teachers of this platform and software because people who just learn and love to jump into new technology need better mentors who can guide us on the right path in using their software.

Describe how to write comments in the code, how to set up the development environment, and how to create a ReadMe.md file to explain how to do these small things which will make your project much easier to understand for the next person.

This is how AI Technology has support because some hard look for help and find the person help because, at the end of the day, people are busy and do not have the time to help you so this is what AI I was built for to help us with difficult assignments.

Mentor Developer's experiences and advice:

  • A reminder that you have to take a longer time to analyze your code.
  • Make sure you break down your code in ways that are easy for you to read when reading other people's coding that you have not written by you.
  • Take breaks when needed do not let clients, or timelines get in the way of your break time, but do not go overboard that you are too late on an assignment that overdo.
  • Do not let your Disabilities or Learning Difficulties get in the way of you taking a challenge on yourself and what you want to accomplish for yourself and your goals.
  • Give yourself accommodations take breaks, go outside, and move on to different tasks. Just do not get upset because you cannot figure out issues or problems.
  • Ask for help from your community people online and offline. People will help but do not feel like you cannot explain the problem well to people within your community.

I spoke to the senior developers who have been great mentors throughout my journey as a Front-End to Back-End Developer to Full Stack Developer. Has said that breaking down complex problems into smaller, manageable tasks helps prevent feeling overwhelmed.

n our code for and help throughout the process better understand what we doing and help build a starting point on building easy to difficult components within are code.

Favorite IDE What is an IDE you ask integrated development environment (IDE) is a software application that helps programmers develop software code efficiently.

The one I use the most now is Cursor for Mac a pair-programming with Artificial Intelligence. https://cursor.sh/

Does Artificial Intelligence No. It is unlikely that Artificial Intelligence will take away our brains if we don't build and create technology that will do that. Human beings do not feel the same as robots, and we can program them to have feelings, but it will not work look at iRobot The Movie.

I was on the journey of learning Java, PHP, and other coding languages out here to learn how to train my brain in something that thought was difficult coding is not difficult it might be challenging for your abilities to see how your brain can analyze different tasks.
