From 'Hello World' to Server Savvy: Confessions of a Junior Developer 🤖

👨‍💻 Ever had that moment when you thought mastering "Hello World" projects made you the coding superhero? Flashback to my junior dev days: tackling machine learning in Python for my Master's thesis and feeling invincible. Little did I know, the real challenge awaited me in the world of production-ready web APIs!

😅 Picture this: a stand-up meeting where a senior dev casually asked if I even knew what a server was! Talk about a reality check! 🤔 Working on a dotnet/angular web API felt like deciphering an alien language, and my JAVA skills were just the tip of the iceberg.

🔍 After the initial shock, I decided to decode the tech labyrinth, one line at a time. From simple desktop JAVA apps for Uni to wrangling with production-ready APIs – because why not make life interesting, right? 💡

🚀Fast forward, and that confusing API turned out to be the gateway to a fascinating coding odyssey. Join me on a journey from self-deprecating confusion to small triumphs!
