Bonjour Jean-Michel, I have a good question, do you think we can become good at programming by following YouTube tutorials even if we don't necessarily understand what's going on on our screen?
I think learning work best if you try multiple approaches, and select the ones that are most efficient and/or enjoyable.
What I would recommend is to try your ideas, find the coolest youtube livecoding session, and take as much inspiration from it as you can.
At some point though, you will plateau, realize you can't learn everything that way, you want to be more active, ...
That's the moment when you try something else.

Thanks so much for your feedback! I appreciate it.
As a fast learner, I noticed my ability to forget stuff quickly.
Write things down and it doesn't matter that you forget
