If I was going to compare learning software development to video games. Reading about it in books feels like the beginning of a video game where you are playing the tutorial but you just want to play already. Many other gamers just skip the tutorial part and just learn as they go and they grasp things a whole lot faster becoming immersed in the game. I did build one project and I got a lot out of it, but books and videos only supplemented my learning. I think I'm going to try this more because I didn't realize how effective it was looking back on it now.. Thank you for taking the time to drop some knowledge. I highly Appreciate it.
