Admittedly it probably was a bit easier back then, i just had the fun of searching for a job after uni, and plenty of companies wont even talk unless you have experience or a degree. Kinda bullshit, because some of the best software engineers I know never went to University.

Back in the day before university (around 6 years ago) I got recommended a mooc(massive open online course) by the university of Helsinki. I used this course to get started with learning to program, and to find out whether it was something for me. It has been some time, and it seems they update the course but I hope it can help you too in learning. Here is the link: https://java-programming.mooc.fi/. It really starts from 0, with setting up te environment which is nice. It is in java using the netbeans ide which some would call antique, but in my opinion that does not really matter to start to learn.
