Why Python should be your first programming language

Welcome back! Python is an awesome programming language that I love using, and I truly do think that if you’re a beginner coder, learning Python as your first language maybe the easiest way to learn coding. Personally, Python was not the first programming language that I learned, it was actually Java, but if I could go back, I wish I started learning Python first, here’s why!

Community

Without a doubt, one of my favorite things about using/learning Python is the community, there are so many people using this language, which really gives the sense that you’re not alone in your Python journey. From my experience, there are certain languages out there that aren’t as popular as Python, this could potentially lead to less tutorials, less documentation, and overall (potentially) less development in that language. On top of this, whenever I had any issues with Python, this includes Python package issues, syntax problems, or any other issue, I was able to troubleshoot it pretty fast since someone else had probably ran into that issue as well. Without a doubt, the community of Python is one of my favorite things about this language.
