    I'm currently teaching myself how to code and I totally agree that practicing with a tutorial and then implementing the lesson in my own personal project is the best way to go.

    I will always recommend the odin project. It is the perfect combination. Literally from 0 to full stack.

      Agree with you, Amazing course, recommend Odin for starters and Full Stack Open for React. Video courses just worked well for me.

    Cool video! As someone that has been watching your video, since high school, you inspired me to apply to ucr. Now, as ucr student, you have inspired me to dive deeper into coding.

    Be naturally smart. In reality most people won’t do it cuz they don’t really want to and aren’t smart enough to have a curiosity to learn it

      The discipline part is definitely the hardest. Especially in the beginning.

  • @marc1190

    Personally I found following a book to the most effective as it had tasks at the end of each chapter to practice what you'd learned

    • @WillWang
      @WillWang  Рік тому

      Yeah, many people prefer the text based courses much more. I agree with you the practice after each section is definitely a key step for both video or text based learning.

      It's because its the most popular coding field right now, its also the easiest to learn and the most in demand. But yea to be honest I kind of had enough of wev dev for now the field is too oversaturated so im learning mobile development now.

      Hey! When I was first started, I coded every morning for 3-4 hours and worked on the business at night. I would say it took me around 4 months- 6 months to be decently comfortable.

    Questions
    1. How do you remember all of this?
    2. Do you need inspect element to be able to code?
    3. How long did it take you to learn all of this?
    4. Can you make a tutorial video for JavaScript?

    • @WillWang
      @WillWang  Рік тому +1

      Of course!
      1. Each course takes a while to finish and I wrote down the steps while I was learning to code.
      2. I am confused about this question, can you elaborate?
      3. This took me about 6 months
      4. If the interest is there, I would be happy to make a basic overview video :)
