Hey Riley 👋 Welcome to this platform.
To answer your question: Both!
For me, I see the world as a "ticking clock". I want to tear it open and look at the gears inside, how they work and fit together.
This I think is the most important trait to have, you have to want to solve problems and want to understand beyond the surface level how things work.
As a developer you can only do this by "fiddling", you have to build things and break things to develop your skill set. This process requires both attaining knowledge as you go along and experimenting by actually rolling up your sleeves and writing some code.
If you just going to follow tutorials and learn how to build things practically, without investing in learning the concepts and architectural knowledge behind what you are doing, you are going to run into future trouble.
Simply because, tech changes often, and you need to be able to pivot as the landscape changes. Having strong foundational knowledge will make it far easier.
Hope this helps answer your question.
