STOP TAKING COURSES AND BUILD SOMETHING.
Thats it. It was said to me at the start and I didn’t listen, was all like “nooo. I’ll just consume this 1000 hr course, they know what theyre talking about” But I couldve got there 100x much faster had I just decided on reading books and doing projects.
Damnit. A whole freakin year in tutorial hell. SMH.
How do you build something if you don’t know how to even write a code? I’d say learn syntax and go build projects. Start with simple.
Coding is like a book, if you don’t like reading it then skip several pages and read the part that interest you the most. Until you arrived on something you like to get your fingers to type on the screen.
A lot of people just finished a course in programming but they never go beyond what they learned.
I started to program at the early stage, but the new tricks on programming I learned on-line by reading someone’s problem and helping others to code - like stack overflow. I think the fastest to learn to code is by doing it together with friends or on groups of people who share the same interest (learning how to code).
Exactly that. I used to take copious amounts of notes and flash cards like I did at university and that approach doesn’t work. Especially with coding.
Well you live and you learn lmao
You learn the basics by reading a book on the basics.
Then you realize you can’t problem solve effectively so you read a book on problem solving.
It’s quite simple. You read a book on ONE Thing that will help you get better
I mean or you just go straight to the project and code whatever you need to code. Learning along the way off YouTube and forums when you’re looking for the specific thing.
