What is really useful for a student who knows programming?

Question

Programming

I do programming. I'm in the 10th grade. I know C# and Unity well. I also enjoy web development in my spare time. I'm trying myself in GameDev. But this is all nonsense. I would like to express myself in some way. How and what can a student who knows programming do to at least somehow declare himself?

Answer 1

>I know C-Sharp and Unity well.
Well, what's the matter? Make a great game (or not great, but your own). All schoolchildren (and not only schoolchildren) dream about it. I'm not kidding, it could be rewarding, (partially) enjoyable, and (there's a chance) lucrative. And since you are a schoolboy, then you have plenty of free time (no need to earn a living).
But the main thing is to decide to reach the end, to the release, to victory. For example, take any favorite game (small) and make a clone (maybe modify it for yourself).
Or find a development team who are looking for a programmer (a carload of such proposals). But you need to choose a good team (to look like a serious one).
Or Alexander Ter offered another option - to do something useful for society. As an example, there wassimilar case a few years ago.

Answer 2

You can “declare yourself” on large public platforms:

1. github - help an existing project or file a new one, your own, incredibly useful to many;
   
2. kaggle - deal with machine learning and learn how to predict everyone more accurately;
   
3. olympiads.
   

Warning the other side of the coin: as a result of an attempt to express yourself, it may happen that it becomes obvious how many cool peppers are around and how infinitely far they are, which threatens self-esteem.

Answer 3

Try Olympiad Programming. Learn cool algorithms - declare yourself!)

Answer 4

A programmer is a person who makes a living by programming. Programmers don't ask questions like that.
A schoolboy is a person who spends half a day at school, half a day toils with garbage if his parents do not involve him in socially useful work.
In short, a schoolboy is a programmer extremely rarely. You are definitely not a programmer.
My advice is to postpone your application to the world otherwise everything will end in disgrace . Now your task is learning, so learn. "Knowledge" "C-Sharp and Unity" does not make you a programmer.
For experiments, you can take some task from the school course
