Welcome to our 5th episode of Coding Fyx! This one is a bit less structured, slightly less informational, and more of a “hey this is what this is” with regards to QA.

This week on Coding Fyx we are answering the age-old question of “what is The Cloud?” It’s a term we’ve all heard, and for a lot of folks it can be a bit of a mystery term.

We’re back with another episode of Coding Fyx! This episode is focused on picking the right first language for you, especially if you’re just getting started; but also if you’re looking to get back into coding, or picking up a new language. This includes an overview on some of the best languages to start with, the things which make them great, as well as their pitfalls.
