Is coding boring at the start?

I've worked a little in everything. Python, HTML, JS, SQL, Java, and VB. I find I'm running into problems such as: when am I going to use this for something interesting or relevant? Any ideas that come to mind that help you code?

the beginning is learning "tools". sure, you may not think you need to know how to do something like add to a number variable... until you actually need to count something! My advice: you've dabbled in a bunch of languages. pick one and make something in it (preferably on pc). that way you'll be forced to learn things that are practical.

Look online for some junior developer interview questions in the language you want to focus on. That will force you to find various things that you won't find on the basic tutorials. There are ideas around, I've used an app called Idea Bag and it comes with loads of suggestions for projects, from beginner to expert

Google is there... Search for project ideas. I'm sure you'll find some.

just do something really basic but helpful, in the begining i made some program related to automating maths it was nothing but they contain simple int some operators and print. u can do these type of small things and gradually increase ur lvl.
