Can I learn coding if I only have a very slow computer?

Listen to me carefully: your brain is the most powerful computer you own. Some of the best coders I know started on old, 'slow' laptops that took ten minutes to boot up.

If your local machine is struggling, I highly recommend using Google Colab. It lets you write code in your browser using Google's powerful computers for free. All you need is a basic internet connection.

Don't wait for a MacBook Pro to start. Start where you are, with what you have. I've been coding since 2007 and I can tell you, the passion in your heart matters more than the RAM in your laptop.
