    Programming is a great way to make money, even remotely, but it’s very difficult. If you’re interested and up for the challenge, going to school for programming (computer science) will help a lot in the future.

    What country are you from?

        I think you could probably do it - You live in a country with good internet, good access to technology, etc.

        If you can afford to go to school, I would recommend doing that. If you can’t, try out Android app development: It’s not easy, but if you put in a lot of work for a year or two, you can make pretty good money (once you start making a few apps, you’ll be able to get 100k IDR/hour). Start with this tutorial installing Android Studio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10IvxreBoIA

        If you can get Android Studio installed, let me know, I’ll find a good tutorial to help you write your first basic app.

            Congrats, that’s the kind of effort you’ll need :). Try this tutorial next: It will walk you through creating your first couple of apps. Again, it’s super hard and long, but if you can get through it you’ll be in a great place to start thinking about your own apps, doing more advanced tutorials, and applying for jobs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blXLGW5IuXU
