Software and Hardware skills

(Athena, 2019)

This post will cover my experiences with software and hardware throughout my life. When I was 8 then I had used for the first time computer. I remember today when my dad came home with a mysterious metal box, the computer he brought back then was called a Commodore. Computers in those days looked completely different and games were run using "Datasette". In that moment,  my mind began to wonder how these devices worked. I was fascinated by the whole procedure of starting programs and games, and I wondered how it is possible that these programs exist and what they are. 

Over the years, technology has developed so fast, and I was fascinated by computers and software all the time. This curiosity led me to write my first program when I was 14, it was a simple calculator created in an integrated development environment (IDE) - Microsoft Visual Studio. Of course, during my adventure with computer technology, I used a lot of software such as music processing and editing software for example Audacity, and FL studio. I also used video editing software such as Davinci resolve, OpenShot, and Windows Movie Maker. Nevertheless, as a fan of video games I had to try to create a game then I used programs such as Game Maker and Unity. Also, I am familiar with the Microsoft Office package which includes programs such as Microsoft word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint.

All the software that I have used had the ability to create. With my fascination with programming and curiosity about how it all works together, over the years I decided that I want to become a programmer, in consequence, the software I use most often is (IDE) Visual Studio Code, brackets, and Atom in which I develop my programming skills by creating websites and applications.
