My first experience at OUTBOX

I got know about Outbox through a friend who sent me the link to apply for the Prep VI course. I applied for the course and i received a confirmation the I was to participate in it. We started Prep VI at Outbox on 15th. June. 2020. I was so happy to have been considered to be part of this program, all along I had love and passion for learn more about computer most especially the programming beat of IT. When i used to go a PC and then that black page for commands appear on my screen, i just too off to the technician to report the problem the had occurred. But on joining Outbox that page is an everyday event which you view daily and use it to command the PC.

I actually don’t know much about the Outbox and initially i had never had about it, even though i had love for programming and coding. I had a plan of starting to be a blogger but i did have a website, and when i tried to forge one didn’t know how to use it. I dreamed of creating/developing an application which i also forged rounded but failed to use it because it didn’t know any programming language at all. But for the 2 weeks i have spent at Outbox under the Prep VI course i have learnt a lot, though things are not easy as one may think but its through hustle,practice and team work that things move on smoothly. i have also come to know that the applications like Facebook, Watsup… that we often love to use where developed through programming and coding and that also as we use and appreciate the sleepless days and nights of the developers, till now they are still working harder than before to maintain their work and also upgrade.

When i was in high school, during the computer studies i had about HTML in full but left it as that and even didn’t get to know its use/importance, CSS is something very new in my hears but am grateful that i now know it in full and its use/importance and finally JavaScript something in my higher i just knew as a programming language but now am learning how to use it.

Thanks so much to Outbox team, Facilitators and benefactors for the opportunity that you granted me at no price. Am really grateful
