Hey, all. I've gone through tutorial after tutorial of many languages hoping to learn to code. I always step away for one reason or another or I just get confused and give up. I'm tired of the normal beginner tutorials that go over variables, control flow, etc...

Learning to code is one of those things I've always wanted to do but just haven't been able to do it.

What would you all, as more experienced coders, like iif you were starting out again?

Dart specifically, I'm interested in flutter and dart as a stand alone language.

I know people say just build a project but I don't even know what kind of project to build...

Any tips would be great. I just REALLY don't want another bland video recommendation.

Hi, just saw your post and I'm in the same boat. Hell, I even studied for 2,5 years and had Programming and Advanced Programming, where I learned some code, but I still lack the structure of a project and how to actually design your code to be effecient and maintainable.

I've done a couple of video tutorials these last months where you "build an app from scratch". The app you are building are far from perfect, but as far as structure goes it helps me develop my skills little by little.

I'm still stuck at how to properly start a project - currently working on a "Mastodon app" (just because it's a free api and I can host my own instance to understand everything better), but currently stuck at "where to place all API stuff and how to build it properly"..

Just wanted to say I'm in the same boat and have often wondered if there is a community somewhere where noobs, like myself, can ask these stupid questions and get some help (wouldn't mind paying for the help, but can't afford much)..
