How Long Does it Take to Learn to Code? with Coderslang

Relicans host, Aisha Blake talks to Coderslang about learning how to code by learning JavaScript and working in IDEs like Visual Studio Code.

Coderslang believes coding should be done in the same environment where the user will be working when they finish their education. This way, they'll have some pain in the very beginning when they have to learn how to install things and learn how to configure everything, but then be able to get that out of the way and move on fairly quickly. 

As far as it talkes to learn how to code? It never ends. And even though you'll be able to get a job in maybe on average a year from your first lesson, he suggests never stopping to learning because it's fun!
