How I Learned to Code Personal Projects Using Tutorials Effectively

my CS classes never taught me how to build personal projects, so this is how I learned to do it myself. I had no iOS development experience, so I bought a Udemy course on iOS dev to learn Swift. After struggling a bit due to tutorial hell, I discovered this method and used it to deploy my app on the app store. method 1. Follow the tutorial to learn, build alongside, and obtain the final code. 2. Create a similar project with different rules or new features from scratch. 3. Refer to the tutorial or final code when encountering issues, alongside proper use of resources like Google, YouTube, or ChatGPT. 4. Struggle a lot and know that it takes time to get good at this, so don't be too hard on yourself if you don't understand it right away. 0:00 building my first app 0:44 the common mistake people make 1:47 the method I used to build my personal projects https://discord.gg/znHe5ENY2p
