PSA: I quit tutorials for 2 weeks and just built stuff, and I learned way more than any course ever taught me
I kept jumping between Python courses on Udemy last month and never finished a single one, so I deleted the apps, opened a blank file in VS Code, and spent 14 days just building dumb little scripts like a tip splitter and a dice roller, and somehow I finally understand loops and functions way better than I ever did from watching someone type on a screen, so has anyone else ditched the course grind and just built random junk to learn?
The "dumb little scripts" part is so real, I made a grocery list app and a random movie picker and learned more about functions than three weeks of videos ever did. Something about fighting your own broken code at 1am just makes it stick.
