A tutorial to get out of tutorial hell
Hahaha 😂😂
😂
One day someone would upload a tutorial about how to get out of the tutorials of getting out of tutorial hell.
Vicky could make that course and sell it on Udemy
😂😂😂
The best method is to watch some videos and then get some hands-on experience. I use the 60-40 rule: 60% hands-on experience and 40% watching tutorial videos.
Indeed
I would argue is best to read documentation and or sample code first
Watching tutorials actually works for me. I watched how to build the Netflix website once; I then rewatched it again. But this time, I was coding along. Essentially, copying all he was doing step by step and taking notes. After that, I started from scratch and built the Netflix website to about 75% without referencing the video. I watched the video one more time and completed my Clone website. I can now build the Netflix website from scratch without referencing my notes or the video. The how-to video is about an hour long. It takes me about 3 hours, 10 minutes to do it. I plan to just keep building Clone projects until I become very good. I'm building the Apple website next. I can't believe I almost gave 8k to a coding boot camp when everything knowledge I need about coding is free on RUclips😂
thanks for given me a way to learn and practice
Cool what is the name of the video or the channel to do it to
@@DavidSeguraIA It's the video called "How to make Netflix website Clone using html and css. The video is 56 minutes and 55 seconds long. It is very easy to follow and understand . The channels name is Greatstack.

You learn by doing. Studying without applying knowledge is like reading about how to fix a car without ever seeing the parts or tools
I used to think tutorials didn't work at first but then I realized after hours of trying to code my own things up from scratch myself that you just can't really discover certain syntax and code logic by accident all on your own even after hours of practice. sometimes the best way to learn is to just follow a tutorial and learn from someone else's code. This will save you hours of trial and error. It's fast and efficient. you just have to make sure you truly understand the code in depth before you move on to something else. Just try to code the whole thing on your own after watching the tutorial and following the tutorial
thanks for sharing! great advice!
The trial and error and frustration is part of the learning process. It's slower to get going but you get a more solid foundation and you build your grit and problem solving skills.
"This will save you hours of trial and error", this is literally why you need to stop watching tutorial. idk if you new to programming but this is the only and most effective way to become programmer by facing errors and debugging them all day.
@@lileightright errors are our best friend
That is the way. A friend asked for help because he wanted to learn Jenkins. My answer: do dyou want to learn Jenkis? Get the official doc and lets deploy a hello world spring boot app. As simple as that. The old learn by doing. You will get stuck, you will get frustrated... but eventually you will learn something
In systems administration, tutorials are very crucial given they are meaningful, but they must be paired with hands-on. Understanding how it works and knowing how to do it is the key.
Thanks for the video, it makes a lot of sense now, I was used to just watching and copying what the teacher was doing, and obviously I'm not learning with this. I'm going to start my own project, wish me luck!
Glad it was helpful! You are very welcome! best of luck on your project!
@@VickyMei Hi are you Thai?
Thank you, I needed to hear this. Something simple, but totally right
Best thing that ever happened to me was hands-on experience. I'm in I.T. so anytime I could get my hands on spare computers, create virtual machines, help someone in the industry, etc, was crucial for me. Even where I work now, I am learning something new almost monthly. So, tutorials are nice to get the ball rolling, but should never be solely relied on.
Start building a real project as soon as possible after watching a tutorial video or course, or reading a book.
The advice in Victoria's video is worth the time to watch.
thank you for your feedback! practice with projects is the way to go!
Anyone who is not insane would get to the same advice 😂
Wow, repetition always work :) just my 2 cents. In the sense of memorizing things and creating a valuable (good or bad) feedback - it works both ways - either proving you some theories, either proving some things are wrong, re-adjusting / enlarging your experience. Good, valuable points overall ... you got a new subscriber.
Learning from you daily exercise as unemployed software video thansk for sharing
I upgraded so many skills during covid but when I went back to working as an admin in the creative floor I got a hold of licenses. They granted me access to use the tools so I would listen during meetings look for the problems and build the solutions to actually apply what I learned. I learned illustrator got access to Adobe creative. The VP was cool about giving me access to the tools they already use. Then I started playing with photoshop. Then sharepoint and more microsoft tools and now creating project management tools. I stay a bit late to speak to the associates to ask how to do something even the video editor. So glad I did I actually retained everything because I created projects around it. Its amazing to learn and actually apply it. Programming is next but next year so I dont crash lol
WOW thats so impressive! lots of things you've learned ! please keep us updated on your learning journey!
Really makes sense. One should also find an excuse to learn that specific language or tool, i.e. may be you want to build a small CLI tool to help you automate a few daily operations that you have you perform manually, then you can jump into Golang or Python etc ... Great advice, thanks a lot Vicky.
i start my web development journey before 10 days so im learning HTML ,im learning from code with harry and w3 school's and you're beautiful
Not a programmer or looking to be one. I do suffer from analysis paralysis and get so immersed in whatever I'm studying that I forgot about application and continuous improvement. I appreciate this video.
Oh wow I didn’t expect someone else outside of programming also find this helpful’ this means a lot to me so thank you and I’m glad this was helpful 🙏🏽
❤ Thanks a lot dear. God bless you. I don't know "jack" in programming though, but seeing ppl build wonderful Apps and website is fun to me and iv told myself hey! It may take you some time though but you'll one day build an app. To that, seeing videos like this is a proof that im on track. I will be glad if you can lead me to guiding steps to fulfill my dream. Once again, THANK YOU SO MUCH❤❤
just found your channel, very good advice. I've attended a boot camp, got my degree and still feel very inadequate thinking i need to learn more, going into tutorial hell lol. I wil go back to basics and refresh what I'v elearned. Thanks
Don't go back to revise. Just try to make projects and if you don't find how to build a component then go to revise that piece of code only. I have repeated myself again and again and now I am making projects only
Absolutely loved your vid! Especially when you connected learning code with working out and the underlying benefit of building our problem solving "muscles". I'm currently studying for my project management certification (PMP) and definitely see how this approach transfers well for me too! Thanks again and continued success! #yournewestsubbie😁
this is such a sweet message! thank you for your support! best of luck on your PMP journey!
I started learn to code right now, subscribed. Love your channel
thanks for lecturing me, thats true me going tutorial after tutorials and unfortunately have not finished watching these
I just got proposed videos like yours at least 5 by YT in last 5 minutes, but it's actually yet another one why people are not learning, but just watching your speech. And not sure why YT is attacking me with this content.
😅
My problem entirely, always jumping around and dont stick to it
Actually tutorial is very good. Something I just realize is after watching tutorial build something with the knowledge. Tutorials here makes you keep up or been aware of some techniques out there
thank u sis ..for this useful video..i wanted to learn mern stack since 3days ..ur video helped me to overcome tutorial hell...thank uu
glad it helped! wish you all the best!
I agree, I follow some of the same practices, however, the way you talk about learning (weight training) is another perpsective that I didn't think about. Thank you great video, I going to practice how you described and see if I can come up with a way that fits me, thank you.
Yep, I love this analogy too.
Great video! Thank you so much!
My pleasure to help!
No because tutorial hell/purgatory is SO real. You gotta just raw dog a project and dive in!!
First of all when you purchase a course you do what we call follow a long. So there is no way to go blank. Basically the guess work has been taken out for you and you follow along with instructor and do the project. I don't see any mishap in that
Very helpful!
Thank you so much Vic. You got yourself a new subscriber.
Welcome aboard!
Yes ill admit. I'm in tutorial hell. Was trying to rush myself. I need to effing slow down. Started my self taught studies a year ago. I need to slow down. Stuck on JS rn 😅
you are like really, START SMALL AND ESSENTIAL, APPLY IT IN YOUR OWN WAY (MOSTLY)
Thanks for this video. I wish I could like a million times
ok I needed this, thank you!
Welcome!
You are a walking legend 😍😍
Thank you so much. This was really helpful. 😃
Great teacher ❤️❤️
Glad you think so!
I must have gotten a line or two through Python 101 in a year and a half. The pages of documents I read and the hours of videos I watched could not give me the information in this video. Because I thought of every day and every moment as a loss and drowned myself in more documents. Thank you very much indeed; Thank you for giving me an enlightenment.
thank you for your comment, this made my day! im glad this video was helpful! keep us posted!
Which python 101 course, the one from IBM?
@@emberavenge7162 nope. İs not
Mhm, i have to disagree a bit. Every Tutorial starts with seeing and repeating and deal with typing problems. And when you have done the tutorial, you take the knowledge to build something new with what you learned.
The fact that she mentioned subscribing to her channel to watch more tutorials 😂
😂😂😂
Thanks for this very nice advise ❤❤
since you bought it up the will power running out of part, i have to say "in the brightest day, in the darkest night, let no evil escape my sight, let those who worship evil's might , beware my will power". nice video, state that which should be obvious but is not not.
thank you so much you made my day
You are so welcome!
thank you so much, you are right
Thanks for watching!
I love Vicky!
Thank you. I agree.
thank you :)
Thanks VIcky, its exactly what i will start doing. Very Handsome lady BTW
Thanks for sharing!
I do leetcode and learn things as I go. Im building my portfolio in react even though I haven't "mastered" javascript.
So you just try your best to work things out and learn from looking stuff up or what?
@Slowly_We_Rot kinda, I just look things up and play around with things. After a while, I started noticing patterns and began connecting the dots. The reason I jumped to react is that I know nothing about it. That decision is why I learned about the terminal, installing packages, and good practices to set up a project. I also use Sass to make css simple, and I imagine tailwind takes that idea further. I develop for mobile first, and I look at bootstrap as a reference because their breakpoints and flexbox properties are solid. I don't use Bootstrap, but I was able to understand why they use certain properties when it comes to a web page. I take that and change it to fit my needs.
That is my experience, but I still have a lot to learn. Especially with leetcode.
@@omar13018 Thanks for the reply! Good advice.
Hello new here , thank you so much for sharing your tips.
Thank a lot for the advices, just curious what video editor you’re using
thanks. this is true.
Very good Vedio❤
Mam make a video about How Much Data Structures and Algorithms are required to get a High Paying Job
This is one of the best totorial I ever see, because it true
Thanks for sharing.
Some great suggestions here!
Glad you think so!
You are right! Watched thousands of videos but never started 🤕
not after watching this video!
@@VickyMei Hopefully.
Form is horrible. But as long as you don't get hurt and progress, hey
Thank u very much 😊
Thanks Kitty😊
I really enjoyed the video and really find it resourceful, BUT those balloon like sounds when some text pops up is very annoying... Listening with headphones is a torture.
thank you for your feedback, could you give an example at which time stamp? I will try to avoid those.
THank you!
You're welcome!
ALL YOU SAID IS TRUE ♥
This is true
i need a tutorial to stop watching tutorials
great tip
Glad you think so!
I would like to know some good websites, books, or courses which teach problem solving instead of memorization like the tutorials. Been looking for practice examples which start as fill in the blank and build up from that but have not found anything good so far. Any ideas or recommendations would be really appreciated. Thanks everyone ☺️.
Therefore at first you should a few books before watching video tutorials !
Good stuff. Now I win quit watching videos and only code and work on Linux skills lol
Let me start on data analysis first, tomorrow then programming next year. Thanks
Just out of curiosity, what do you use to learn data analysis?
@@VickyMei I'm gonna start with excel, then SQL and later python or PowerBI as I've been doing some research on RUclips but I'll be learning on RUclips, I have access to a laptop so I hope it all goes well. The problem will be getting certification for validation when applying for jobs but when I get money, I'll pay for an online course too God willing...
Just get some books and read intensely. Don't just learn to program at high level code also learn at machine level getting an understanding of what high level coding is doing, at least, at assembly level. That is what I did and no language was beyond me.
Thank you mam new subscriber❤
cause u trying to rush things thats why slow steady
Thank you.
Welcome!
Good video
Glad you enjoyed
😘😘
Binge watching tutorials makes you lazy. Just do the work, simple.
I'm just looking for a remote data entry or remote live chat agent. It's not an advanced tech job. I dunno why it's so hard. Who can help me??? 😢😢😢😢😢
I just bought a boot camp to be a senior engineer in 3 months in an Indian platform. Am I already screwed it up right. .
Bro why Indian platforms 😂they are all scammers.instead u could have followed some Indian youtubers
Watching videos is tricky because it's application is to a particular level of audience or it can sound convincing it can sound believable but it is absolutely non sense, teach yourself to differentiate!!!!
practice read watch i dont have much time to watch
gold gold gold
Are those tutorials not comming with regular exercises?
Nice explanation
kya bhaiya software engineer ho?
@@gangstaboy5912 Nah just a college student bhaiya
can we learn programming together 😄
If I am new to software engineering or a programming language, don't I need tutorials to give me an idea?
i don’t think you got the point of the video buddy.
Are frontend developers still needed?
Good question! Ima make a video about this
@@VickyMei oh that is so nice
In short: Yes they are.
You don't need a 10 min video 1 month from now to get an answer to that question.
quick answer is yes but there are some thoughts i have about front end devs in the US job market that are way different now than before
@@thuglaza4728 yes but it’s called content for a reason
😃👍
think applying review
I bring you blessings from my LORD JESUS CHRIST WHO Is Coming Again To Judge the living and the dead hoping you believe In HIM Amen.
al andar se hace camino
I love this saying!
@@VickyMei It's a piece of a poem by Antonio Machado.
Caminante, son tus huellas
el camino y nada más;
Caminante, no hay camino,
se hace camino al andar.
Al andar se hace el camino,
y al volver la vista atrás
se ve la senda que nunca
se ha de volver a pisar.
Caminante no hay camino
sino estelas en la mar.
the 1st 30 seconds sounds very familiar :P
We’ve all been there 😭
could you suggest some of the best dsa tutorials on the internet?
DSA stands for?
@@VickyMeidata structures and algorithms 😢
@@VickyMeiare you kidding?
@@VickyMei seriously??
@@mount2020 i dont wanna just assumed . for some reasons, i read too much into it and thought its design system and algorithm lmao

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Whosoever believeth in Jesus Christ should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Please come to Jesus Christ, He loves you.
