15 years of coding: Thousands of lines of code and no project of your own?

It's been 15 years since I wrote my first line of code. I remember that at the age of 12 I was already fascinated by the world of programming. It all started as a simple interest, but it quickly turned into a passion. It took me to study Systems and Computing Engineering, where, even before graduating, I was developing for a company.

Today, November 16, 2024, I find myself reflecting on the journey: all the functions, the views, the classes, the data structures, the languages, and the countless tools that have passed through my hands. Over these 15 years, most of my code production has been for clients, large and small, and not for myself.
