{ Hello world... I am a mechanical Engineer (using the term 'Engineer' loosely here...) just out of college. I have recently picked up a love for programming and I want to make a career switch to become a developer. I have decided to start with android development as I have some knowledge of Java. I have started with the courses offered by Google in Udacity on the basics of android development. I hope to start developing soon and have a working app available on Google play store. I love writing and as a way of maintaining motivation during my learning, I want to blog about the things I learn. This blog is not going to be technical, but rather the path I am gonna take and the mistakes I am gonna make as I try and become a developer. It is going to be a virtual journal about my programming journey. If you know coding, I would love to hear from you about any tips I should know. until the next post, break. }
