Hey, I absolutely love dolphin and think it is crazy how the devs and everyone else who helps with it has made it into what it is! I have no experience in coding or anything like that but am good with computers and advance stuff dealing with computers. I'd love to help out/learn anything I can with the software to help contribute as well if possible?

You're definitely able to get into programming through learning about Dolphin. The first step would be learning github and visual studio. Download the repository, load and build it in Visual Studio, and figure out how to do a github Pull Request for something you want to add/change in dolphin. There can be hurdles with learning just these basics, so it could take quite some time and googling.

After that you can get into the actual coding. Usually it's something you see that you want to work on, especially if you're completely new. You start by modifying existing code a bit, then adding some code using what's already there as a reference, then just keep building your knowledge.
