Imagine a world without technology. Every single move that you make will be different. No more online banking and having food delivered at your doorstep. No more binge-watching TV shows online and connecting with friends who are thousands of miles away. What could have been worse, is if the technology advancements that we see today did not exist during the lockdown or had been scuttled during the lockdown. Would we have been able to survive it?
But technology continues to save us and spoil us. And we must keep up with it to use it to our advantage. Obviously, technology is just a tool in the hands of a developer who develops via programming, facilities that are user friendly and useful. The various apps on your phone are just one example, the other being the fly by wire system that a modern airplane uses to fly from Mumbai to New York.
Do you need to know programming to use technology? Not really because there are others creating stuff for you. But what if you have an idea and want to create something useful for yourself and for others? Simple stuff that grows complex with time? Or just to create a website to promote you and your wares? Well, then it best to learn to program. It is not boring. In fact, it is fun, and the way SangamOne Connected Services Pvt Ltd. teaches it, it’s really fun and you will enjoy it!
SangamOne Connected Services Pvt Ltd.’s Web Programming for Beginners is a basic course for anyone to learn the skill of website development. They have taken the route of Blended Learning.

Need for Programming in the modern era:
Apart from the technological sector, many businesses that are prominent in our lifestyle rely on computer coding today. Programming is a basic field of study to learn how to innovate, create eco-friendly solutions to address issues globally. To keep it simple, it would result in speed in the input and output processes performed by machines. Additionally, it helps to develop the ability to automate, collect, manage, analyze the data and information correctly.
“Web programming is the most common program throughout the world. Blogging is a technical word. I would say, it is good for people who would want to express themselves; allowing them to share their ideas into the world.”
Today, several students, professors, and other practitioners are dependent on online learning systems, and interactive web applications enabling them to interact live from the comfort of their homes. Almost all major learning institutions have some form of online learning implementation. Artificial intelligence, Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and the likes will shape the future, be applied to our day-to-day lives. All credit to computer programming!
