Five Star Gift Ideas

If your girlfriend is into computer programming, then you could consider getting her a thoughtful, computer-related birthday gift. Below are a few ideas that she might appreciate:

1. A computer science book: If your girlfriend loves programming, then she may enjoy reading books on computer science. Consider getting her a book on coding in her preferred coding language. "Cracking the Coding Interview" by Gayle Laakmann McDowell is a popular book among computer science enthusiasts.

2. A Programming Course/Class: Consider gifting her a programming course or a computer science class at a local college to further develop her skills.

3. A Portable Keyboard: If your girlfriend is not into using a traditional keyboard, getting a portable keyboard that can plug into a computer, tablet or other device can be a perfect gift idea. Some keyboards are foldable yet comfortable to use, others are even wireless.

4. Tech Accessories: You can never go wrong with tech accessories, such as an external hard drive, headphones, or something she can use to spice up her workspace, such as custom mousepads, computer cases, or LED lights.

5. A powerful Laptop: A good programmer needs a computer that can handle heavy programming workloads. Getting her a high-performance laptop can not only help her write her code, but she can also use it for her other work and hobbies.

6. Smartwatch: A smartwatch can keep track of her steps and daily fitness routine helping her maintain good health, while also syncing with her other tech without needing to take the phone out of the pocket.

These gift ideas should set you in the right path towards picking the perfect gift for your girlfriend. As a programmer, she'll appreciate the thought you put into finding something that aligns with her interests.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.
