About Cogito Coders

Knowing a programming language is a great first step — knowing how to use it to solve problems is the next.

My name is Jon Fincher, and I launched the Cogito Coders blog to help new and self-taught coders learn to think like a coder.

There are lots of sites that can teach you how to code, but not many teach you how to break down a problem, look at from a different perspective, and how to apply the tools you have to solve that problem.

There’s a difference between knowing how to use a hammer, and knowing how to build a house.
