There are still programmers out there perpetuating the myth that programming is hard, prepare for an extremely lukewarm take.
Programming is just a set of tools and that set of tools and learning this tool set is not challenging to learn over an extended period.
Programming is only as hard as the problems you are solving with it, if you're solving simple problems programming is simple, likewise for the contrary.
It's like saying speaking is hard, yeah maybe speaking is hard if you're delivering rhetoric in a debate to thousands of people, but if you're just asking someone where the nearest bathroom it's completely trivial.
