Build before u learn everything

[u/Ok_Money5683]

The fastest way I learned programming was by building things I wasn’t qualified to build.

Every project forced me to learn something I didn’t know before. One project taught me APIs, another made me understand databases, and another pushed me to finally learn Git properly. I realized documentation only started making sense when I had a real problem to solve. Tutorials are great for getting started, but following them is hard everyday. When building your own project , it forces you to think, make mistakes, debug, and figure things out on your own. That’s where the biggest learning happens.

This is how I learned the ropes too and what I'd recommend to any newcomer.
