Ask Hexbear is the place to ask and answer ~~thought-provoking~~ questions.

Posts must ask a question.
If the question asked is serious, answer seriously.
Questions where you want to learn more about socialism are allowed, but questions in bad faith are not.
Try !feedback@hexbear.net if you're having questions about regarding moderation, site policy, the site itself, development, volunteering or the mod team.
IDK how things are in your area in this regard, but what you need to get a software development job can be made/achieved without a degree.
Namely, you need to make a portfolio of projects on GitHub or analogous platform. Those projects should demonstrate your ability to work with relevant technologies and understanding of some of the relevant concepts.
A way to look up relevant technologies and skills is to go to a job-searching website and read the requirements of relevant jobs.
coding “boot camps” are a thing, and i’ve had several colleagues who’ve emerged from them.
i’m also a non-degreed developer, fwiw.
Note, I am a degreed developer. The only thing that you can't replicate without a university is working with a supercomputer. Everything else can be studied and done on one's own and/or with the help of forums (such as Hexbear itself) and developer groups of open-source projects that you can (and should, if you pursue this path) join.
Also, only a few universities even have supercomputers to begin with.
