๐Ÿ“Œ Top 5 tips to improve your programming skills:
Practice alone does *NOT* make you perfect.
Here's what you can also do to improve your programming skills.
๐Ÿงต A thread!
Tip 1: Code daily
I know, I know, I know that you've heard this like a thousand times but the reason this tip is right at the start is that it works.
Won't explain this one further as I'll start sounding like a broken record, so just try it and see for yourself.
Tip 2: Contributing to Open Source
This is not for an absolute beginner to programming.
But if you want to learn how production-grade apps are written, what the best practices are and so on, there's no other way that I know of.
๐Ÿ‘‡ Get started here:
Tip 3: Debug, debug, debug
I know that it is fashionable to say 'I hate debugging' but it harms you.
Nobody learns coding without mistakes.
It is only when you develop the mindset of owning and fixing problems that you unlock new levels of learning.
Learning from mistakes >>>
Tip 4: Ask questions:
This is a continuation of tips 3 and 4 and produces cumulative results.
Ask questions, be curious, and be logical.
Don't settle by accepting them at face value.
Instead, try to dive in deep and focus on the whys.
It'll take you forward, big time!
Tip 5: Build, build, build
The more you build, the more you learn.
Plus if you can build around things that you're naturally passionate about, you'll be unstoppable.
So, don't build just another movie app,
build an app for all MCU movies.
(You don't like DC, do you?)
Bonus: Join a community
Join a community of like-minded people.
You will find a tribe of folks who are on a similar path as you.
They will lift you up on your down days and can help lend an ear when all you wanna do is curse a programming language.
I write daily threads on web dev so if you enjoyed this thread, please:
