2012
Ethical Hacking & Security Curiosity
Web Security (learned)Exploits (learned)Defense (learned)The Bangladesh–India cyber war pulled me into security. Started reading about exploits, defense, and how systems break.
Late 2013
Fundamentals at W3Schools
Basic HTML (learned)Basic CSS (learned)Basic PHP (learned)After HSC ended I bought my first computer, a Dell N4050 Core i5 laptop, and spent time on w3schools.com, exploring and practicing more fundamentals.

2014–2018
University · CSE
C (learned)Java (learned)HTML (learned)CSS (learned)JavaScript (learned)PHP (learned)SQL (learned)MySQL (learned)REST APIs (learned)Android Apps (learned)Unity 3D Basics (learned)Computer Science Fundamentals (learned)Daffodil International University. Where most of the foundation came from. The self-taught years made the core concepts click fast. Built 20+ mobile apps, two rewarded by the university. At this stage I built real world web applications and developed some games, the exact things I was dreaming about back in 2007-2009.
