It feels like the bits in portal where you find a crack in the shiny polished walls & go exploring in the grungy maintenance areas outside.
There isn't anyone guiding your hand anymore (for good or ill).
If your program doesn't work (or you can't even install the programming language to begin with) you are often left with arcane, generalised instructions or nothing at all. There's no button you can click that will fix buggy program logic & sort out your unique mess of dependancies.
