contents Computer programming represents a rapidly evolving and sought-after career path in the 21st century. Nevertheless, novice learners may find the process intimidating for several reasons, such as limited and highly competitive career opportunities, peer and parental pressure for academic success, and course difficulties. These factors frequently contribute to anxiety and eventual dropout as a result of fear. Furthermore, research has demonstrated that beginners are significantly deterred by the fear of failure, which results in programming anxiety and and a sense of being overwhelmed by intricate topics, ultimately leading to dropping out. This project undertakes an exploration beyond the scope of conventional code learning platforms by identifying and utilising effective and personalised strategies of learning. The proposed solution incorporates features such as AI-generated challenging questions, mindfulness quotes, and tips to motivate users, along with an AI chatbot that functions as a motivational aid. In addition, the suggested solution integrates personalized roadmaps and gamification elements to maintain user involvement. The project aims to systematically monitor the progress of novice programmers and enhance their knowledge of coding with a personalised, revised curriculum to help mitigate the fear of coding and boost confidence.
