Why respondents start learning coding?

Open SamAI-Software opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Sadly there was no direct question in a survey about the major reasons why people start learning coding, but we still can grab some data on that and make some conclusions.

For example:

  1. unemployed most likely can't find any other job
  2. employed might want better salary
  3. those who prefer to work freelance probably want more freedom

Are you already working as a software developer?

  • It's the most answered question (99.5% respondents).
  • 11% of respondents who code for less than 1 year already work as software developers.
  • 24% of respondents with 5+ years of programming experience aren't working as soft devs.
