READ CODE & WRITE CODE; DON’T WATCH CODE
I always preferred watching video tutorials because they just showed you how everything worked and where to find what you want, And for any thing I wanted to learn I always searched for video tutorials. I did what they taught after watching videos or practice with them with multiple screens side by side (SOMETIMES PAUSING THE VIDEOS) and it always feels like you are learning because at the end of video you were able to do what tutors were able to in tutorials. For a long time this felt right but after a short thought about why I was not able to code whatever I wanted to code with a clear understanding? This question gave birth to a thoughtbuble that the videos I watch may be the reasons because in videos you never see tutors making mistakes, obliviously you wont see them making mistakes for they edit the videos and most disturbing thing is that you don’t actually learn by watching videos it is like you close your eyes and tutors catch hand and take you somewhere you have no idea. To prove this I tried by reading documentations of many frameworks and programming languages and felt the difference of learning by trial and error that profound developers speak about. I was able to understand what I was doing and the connection between each part of the code.
