Hey, I am a senior developer with 10 years experience. I still go over resources in youtube, google, github forums and stack overflow, and I still feel like I don't understand whats going on half the time. So I can't promise if things will ever stick to your brain (they don't for me XD) and if you will ever understand what you are doing (everytime i go back to my code i am like, was i high when i wrote this? ), but I can promise you, you will become better at finding resouces in youtube, google, github forums and stackoverflow and that will help you build things faster. And when you finally ship your code to prod and see the impact you are making, you will be proud you made the journey. That I can promise.
