Rebirth of a Little Nurse: How I Rigorously Self‑Learned Scripting on Twitter and Douyin
1. Motivation: Where does the courage for a cross‑field transition come from?
Why does a nurse with no programming background feel the urge to learn coding?
1. The power of idols:
The initial drive came from a post by blogger @gch_enbsbxbs (CJ). It was this article that broke my fear of programming.

2. Evidence of a zero‑foundation turnaround
From his Twitter posts you can see how CJ went from a coding novice to mastering scripts for
Hyper, Lighter, Meteora, Falcon, USDAI
and various Pre‑DEX rewards,
even achieving precise sniping of Alpha tokens.
To study his growth path,
I reread his past tweets at least ten times.
The projects he scripted can earn A7/A8 or higher.
So impressive~~~
Because of his strong profit‑generating ability,
he is a pure green influencer without ads.
And he never posts NSFW content.
(ps: May heaven bless, I hope the Twitter creators I follow don’t post NSFW for traffic; I hate feeling my idols crumble.)
3. His advancement roadmap is extremely friendly to beginners
He recommends starting with AI coding tool Cursor, which greatly lowers the entry barrier.

From writing MD documentation to deep program optimization, he records everything in detail.
I think this article had a big impact on me.

By studying the thought process behind his open‑source projects,
I realized programming is no longer an inscrutable art.
Promise me
Start from his 2024 tweets.
Okay?
It really suits beginners.
4. The early‑bird attempts
I started to imitate him
and tried to run his open‑source scripts.
This is CJ’s repository address:

The starting phase was extremely painful.
I even chose the wrong subscription type for my Cursor account.
Whenever I hit a bottleneck,
I left a comment on Twitter seeking advice,
and unexpectedly the big‑brother replied patiently.
The most crushing moment was
just configuring the .env environment and API;
I spent three whole days on that.
Countless times I wanted to smash my keyboard and quit,
but I eventually made it through.
One can only grow through pain.
Now to be honest,
it’s still very torturous.
5. Past timidity and regrets
After learning so much from CJ’s posts, I wanted to study together with the senior.
Actually CJ posted a call for collaborators long ago, but when I saw it the post was already half a year old.
I thought he must already have a mature team, so I didn’t dare DM him for WeChat.
Later, gathering courage and adding him on WeChat, I discovered he actually had no real team at that time.
Lesson:
When you encounter a quality creator on Twitter, you must bravely take the first step.
What a great learning opportunity.
