I am happy to share my thoughts on this forum. Well, The first coding language which I learnt is HTML and Python
I believe C was very popular in the 90s, could have been that. Do you like HTML?
Did you learn in this particular order? I would think learning C would be very difficult at the beginning.
Awesome! Thank you for the share!

I began with a Language a lot of People seem to begin with nowadays which is HTML5. But that the Language that I actually started with before I learned HTML5 was a Modified Version of Lua for the Kids Online Building-Game, ROBLOX. It was just a modified Version of Lua to better suit ROBLOX. I have of course, quit ROBLOX now as I've grown out of it.
Then, I actually learned HTML5 on Codecademy and it was incredible. I was amazed at what I was learning. After that, I began learning other Languages like CSS and Python.
If it weren't for ROBLOX and it's modified Version of Lua, I probably never would've began learning HTML5 or any Programming Language in General.

If we're including HTML that would be my first, since you could only make HTML based modifications to the first forum software that I used (ezboard).
Following that it would have been Perl. My knowledge was basic, but was able to write bits of code for UBB before switching to vBulletin which was PHP based.

Oo wow! What’s Lua? Never heard of it before.
Hahah I’m still trying to push myself to learn to PHP, keep saying to @TopSilver i will but never got around to it. But does the site still exist? Hoping CodeForum will become a place for people to learn coding/programming!
Yeah same here! But never learned Java! I really want to learn more languages but with work I can never find time. I’m hoping after I move I can get my butt moving!
Hahaha you should learn again!
It seems like a lot of new Coders/programmers start with HTML in my opinion. When did you learn HTML?
Very interesting, thanks for sharing

I learned HTML/CSS by designing MySpace profile page overlays with divs & other elements.
Then I moved on to modifying forum & blog themes, then finally making my own and learning how to create designs from scratch.
My first actual programming language that I learned was technically VB, but I didn't understand much of it & followed tutorials closely without really understanding everything. Then I learned Java, but that was in school and we didn't do too much with GUI applications. We mostly worked with the console (Command prompt). I would consider the first language that I fully learned being PHP. I learned how to create pretty complex systems quickly and made a couple thousand dollars within the first few months of learning. It's been a good few years now, so PHP comes easy. I also learned all about SQL databases, which uses a query language to access & manipulate data. I then learned how to write jQuery & core JavaScript. Lately I have been learning Java again, but doing it from scratch & for GUI applications instead of with the more graphic limited command prompt.
