My learning cycle: Decide what to do -> google what technology you need for it -> npm i -> fail to use it -> read official docs and understand nothing -> web dev simplified -> actually start using the technology, get stuck on a problem eventually -> go back to reading docs -> now actually understand something and start building your project
Agree completely: Building things is the only way to learn the vast amounts you don't know. But here's the thing: Your projects aren't going to be totally unique either So be a shameless Googler when you encounter problems--someone has already figured out that problem you've spent hours stressing over too.
I really love your channel. It's my favourite now and I get any notification. You really aim to help developers, you do that with passion, every video is serious, your suggestions are real life problems solver and you not only teach how to do something by coding it but how to think a clean, best practice solution which is more valuable than just giving a solution to a code problem. I hope you will keep that passion and love for this channel forever. There is something I call it "The law of startup" where each startup of any kind starts by being perfect, caring of clients, of quality etc and as soon as they get money or fame or interest etc they loose quality, value, cheap prices etc etc. Please, continue doing as good as you do. Keep it up Kyle
wtf that's fucking amazing, I felt like I'm getting stuck watching your tutorials without know anything and I felt alone and then you came with that video bro that's amazing
I know the feeling. Hopefully this video helps kick you into gear on building your project since seeing a project you built working as you envisioned is such a powerful feeling.
@@WebDevSimplified It seems that coding becomes almost muscle memory after awhile. One thing that I am doing also is finding local businesses and just making a better or new website as practice.
I was stuck in Tutorial Hell for almost 1 year. From last two month I stopped watching all kind of tutorials except updates of 3 channels. Web dev. Dev ed. Traversy. And working ony my app.
Another great tipp in my opinion is that you have to focus on one Project and bring it to the end. My problem is that I started many projects but I cancelled them every time I had a better idea for a project. So at this point I would say that I would have better skills if I had build one project to the end instead of start 100 and ending no one ;)
I do appreciate your videos. They are well thought out and straight to the point with no rambling. And I really appreciate that you are confident enough in the content that you don’t feel the need to prop it up with stupid background “music” like so many others.
Totally agree with you. I can only learn something by doing it by myself. What I usually do when I'm not at all familiar with the language I want to learn, it's to watch one whole "project tutorial", and then try recreate the same project by myself. And after that I create a project of my own based on that project. For example, right now I'm following a React tutorial where the final project is an e-commerce. After I'm done with the tutorial, I'll try to recreate it and than create a completely different e-commerce project based on what I learned. I find "project tutorial" better because you can see the code used in a context, and not simply in an example that you never come across in a real project.
Is think people are over exaggerating with the concept of tutorial hell. The key lies in knowing what you want to do in terms of web-development/software engineering, picking a specific set of languages, libraries, and frameworks to work on, and not to work one everything, hone their skills and start making their own projects after that. Speaking as a millennial, the problem is that many people want to achieve everything quickly and all at once. Rome wasn't built in one day folks, work hard, be patient and the rewards will come.
I agree, i was in tutorial hell, thats why i chose to go to a bootcamp. Bootcamps don't offer anything you can't learn for free, but the bootcamp forced me to make daily projects by only teaching half of the requirements and forcing me to research for the other half
Can confirm. This is roughly the place I am at currently having started learning to code around 2 months ago, though I have trouble coming up with ideas too.
I wrote the above comment before watching all the way through, thankfully I am already in the process of doing as you suggest and building onto something I made in a tutorial; taking a web scraper and using it to track prices of certain items over time. I plan to add email alert below certain prices and maybe even a GUI to graphically display results over time and maybe even turn it into an .exe or whatever. So glad to have it confirmed that this is a decent route to take out of my tutorial watching hell :)
I do the same thing! Design an idea, but before I actually build it, I would watch a tutorial on how to build exactly what I need first. Take what I need from that tutorial to fit what I need for my project and build my project. Perfectly said! I love your channel!
that's an interesting perspective. I've never been stuck in tutorial hell. my only issue was finding a good tutorial on what I was trying to accomplish. but your videos are great and that's why I'm here. not to re-do your tutorials, but more as for inspiration, since I already know most of the things you do.
For people who like tutorials, I would say first come with a project. Than watch mini a tutorials for small things you get stuck with. You could watch TH-cam x on how to use express and maybe watch youtube y on how to center a div. The thing is you are building your own thing. This is much better compare to following along tutorial all the way.
This is an awesome video man. I really appreciate everything you've done with your channel and I hope you're being compensated for all the help you've given to junior devs everywhere. Time to start building!!! Thanks brother
Yeah I'm sure most programmer gets into tutorial hell just like me but i escape it when i started to make a projects on my own thanks to your videos kyle personally I only used your videos for the concepts about javascript language that i hardly to understand
i nearly get stuck. This video really awake me. Your tutorials is so good and easy to understand, but i have only shopping cart website to build. I just watching yout videos more and more 😂
A very insightful video. You drill deeply into the mechanism of online learning and hit the nail on the head. Guys and gals, be brave. Spread your wings and fly. WDS is absolutely correct. You need to get out there. Get out and fail.. fail big. Yes, use online resources, learn from others but be driven, be focused, and when you win... You'll win big too :D just do it ffs!
Theory is only gonna get you so far. Take your theory and put it into practice! I think people need experience seeing the theory they learned actually happening in the real world. Even if it’s the most basic program in the world, that experience of actually seeing what happens when the computer does what you programmed (with errors or not) it to do is worth more than any tutorial out there. And errors are the only way to really grow. Errors are what fortifies experience. Those errors you create are how you will truly learn what you need to know to achieve your goals.
So it's not just me. After 2 weeks of tutorial hell I tried to fetch an API and display the data on my web page, almost cried because I couldn't do it, was so easy on videos..hahaha. But I made it. Nice content lad, this free content is better than udemy paid courses.
The problem is most of the programmers turn into TH-camrs and they waste the time of learners. After listening to 2.5 hours of video, the final advice was " A solid foundation on HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, practice some projects and then make your own projects, practice practice and practice new projects, add features to it and that's all".
1:55 Therein lies the issue with my case. I don't have a lot of ideas that I want to see built. You know, when I read a lot of articles online asking for advice on tutorial hell, they'll say "just build projects." I've talked with other learning devs online about my frustration, and none of it helps. They'll throw me these vague scenarios about "just try to imagine a problem that can be solved with an app." Well so far, that has bore no fruit whatsoever. Any idea I had there was an app that was already doing it and doing it much more efficiently than a newbie dev could have done. Then they'll say, "Well if the solution already exists, why not build on that feature and make it better?" I'll use a blog website as an example. I tried to start a project on a blog website, but I quickly ran out of ideas as I had no idea how to make it resemble anything look like a blog. I tried looking at other blogs to get inspiration, and I just wasn't feeling any of the designs. So I asked people online, and I think I read someone tell me that I should try putting a calculator on the website. I asked myself, why in the world should there be a calculator on a blog site? Well it'll be different, right? Sure. It'll be different, but that makes no sense to have a calculator. I mean if you're gonna take the time to build a project, should there not be a purpose/business problem your code is trying to solve? Anyway, I'm just frustrated because I have no idea what to build as a newbie. I've tried reading other people's ideas like "Student grade application, Product inventory, etc." They all seem boring to me. And yes. I even heard of combining interests to make it fun. Yep. I've heard that online as well, but for the life of me, my interests of mountain biking, guns, video games, heavy metal? I can't seem to find a problem that can be solved by an app. I really don't have an imagination regarding projects and I wish I had some help or guidance or something. I've been struggling with this for 4 years now. 50% of that time has been me not touching any code for 2 years because I got so frustrated towards the end.
I'm in a big project now, the project gathers IOT data from nodes all over the world to a rails server, with react fronted. (the data strings inside the app btw are still called "pokemons"). And, indeed, i only use tutorials as answer to my questions. An answer without question is not falling into fertile ground
imo the best way to learn is to have your own project, stumble into a problem you cant solve, think about how to solve it, find a tutorial tonhelp you, and realize the solution you thought would work cannot possibly work and needing to rethink from scratch.
also, when i work in a project i break it into small steps, and i try to always do the hardest step first. so when i solve that hard part i can do the easier parts much more quickly and feel like im making lots of progress. i find when i do easy parts first, the hard parts feel more furstrating
Exactly. What. Kyle. Said. And actually we've all been through that or still are. You could listen to Brad Traversy or Gary Simon, still the same struggle. I once tried to build something, a Settlers game but online, before Web App became a thing. That started 11 years ago. The way to become better, as with everything in life, is practice. Build a sand castle or house of cards in real life, you fail but eventually get better. Do the same in programming, build (dumb) shit and you will learn from it (like building a checkersboard in 10 lines css and 10 lines js).
This really is such a huge problem. It's human nature to learn by doing, I personally know that myself and some friends of mine have gotten stuck in "Tutorial Hell" before, and that things completely change once you start building a real project. Because, when you do, you're on your own, no one is holding your hand, guiding you through every step of the way. It teaches you problem solving, backtracking, and building a code base that's future-proof/maintainable by both you and any future collaborators you may have
I`m stuck in tutorial hell because I`m lazy. Following instructions and listening to other ppl is much easier than using own brain. You should watch tutorials when u want to relax instead of watching some movie or tv show. Also, I`m writing this comment instead of building my own project. At least I`m aware of the problem.
Could you make a video on how to complete a project?coz no matter how much enthusiastic I am while starting the project..towards half of the completion..I kinda want to work on another project..this video would be really helpful..Thanks for everything ❣️
Stuck in tutorial hell big time. Scared of stepping out on my own. I start to build stuff...get scared and jump back to TH-cam/Github to see if some one has already built it.
No, I'm not. I don't have that much time for building my project because of school etc, not tutorials. What taught me a lot is managing a website for my brother, but it also stops me from doing other projects. I did a big CMD platformer once for a competition actually but I had to put back the website
One of the ways I avoid tutorial hell is never use the same variable or function names as the tutorial. This forces you to understand what exactly is being passed where and stops you from just copying exactly what's on the screen. I also write a certain block of code from the video , study it, then delete it and see how far I can build it back without the video. Allow yourself to struggle building it back as long as possible then if you have to refer to the video you won't forget what just aggrivated you when you realize the solution .
Hello, Kyle. Firstly, many thanks for your videos and your work. We realy love it. But what next, after you finished you project? Just think about next project and do it? Should we try to find a job and show our project on interview? Or maybe we should evolve, improve our project to attract a people to this site?
The very definition of tutorial hell describes my current position, but, if I was keen on building a MERN or a MEAN application, shouldn't I have at least an intermediate understanding of each of the technologies? Right now, I am going through some React tutorials, but the massive dose of deja vu I keep getting is making me question even going forward with it.
I think you should have at least a beginner understanding of how to get started, but once you know that then I would say jump into your project. You will make mistakes, get stuck, and do things wrong but that is the best way to learn.
I have the exact same issue. My project is a google chrome extension that interacts with the API of a well known CRM platform, and I want to use Angular. I feel like I can't even start unless I have some basic/intermediate understanding of all the technologies at hand...I can't just start coding because I don't know how to code in angular, I don't know what my code needs to do to interact with the chrome APIs, etc...so I'm also stuck in tutorials until I feel I have the right level of knowledge to truly get started. I'm open to suggestions
Hey Kyle. I started working for a company that makes me copy templates from Colorbid and change them to fit the design of the g.designer. I feel a bit bad, like a copy-paste guy. Same with JS. I want to do a Wizard and they tell me to copy the plug-in Steps and get done with it quicker. Is it like that everywhere? I studied hard to do something else...
Drop a video on JS game development bro. I need inspiration. & also can u talk about the difference between client side and server side and when it makes sense to use either or.
I am definitely in tutorial hell. I have good knowledge about syntax but I am not doing well applying the knowledge. I have limited success watching youtube videos. It takes a lot of time and after watching them and they often do not help. They tend to be too vague, to simple, or out of date, especially for complicated frameworks such as Spring. Does anyone offer weekly online courses that doesn't cost a lot ?
I am not in tutorial hell, but I got a portfolio done with about 9 projects using most React/Node. I am applying to jobs but getting no replies from them.
My learning cycle:
Decide what to do -> google what technology you need for it -> npm i -> fail to use it -> read official docs and understand nothing -> web dev simplified -> actually start using the technology, get stuck on a problem eventually -> go back to reading docs -> now actually understand something and start building your project
"Stop watching my videos!"
Me: "Click"

@@WebDevSimplified Yeah... I'm kinda stubborn sometimes 😂

You are one in a million... 👍🏻
Im stuck and when I start building something from scratch imma completely blank
One of the ways I avoid tutorial hell is never use the same variable or function names as the tutorial.
This forces you to understand what exactly is being passed where and stops you from just copying exactly what's on the screen.
I also write a certain block of code from the video , study it, then delete it and see how far I can build it back without the video. Allow yourself to struggle building it back as long as possible then if you have to refer to the video you won't forget what just aggrivated you when you realize the solution .
Hello, Kyle.
Firstly, many thanks for your videos and your work. We realy love it.
But what next, after you finished you project? Just think about next project and do it?
Should we try to find a job and show our project on interview? Or maybe we should evolve, improve our project to attract a people to this site?
Thanks Kyle..I really love your videos.. though it hasn't always been like that
The very definition of tutorial hell describes my current position, but, if I was keen on building a MERN or a MEAN application, shouldn't I have at least an intermediate understanding of each of the technologies? Right now, I am going through some React tutorials, but the massive dose of deja vu I keep getting is making me question even going forward with it.
I think you should have at least a beginner understanding of how to get started, but once you know that then I would say jump into your project. You will make mistakes, get stuck, and do things wrong but that is the best way to learn.
I have the exact same issue. My project is a google chrome extension that interacts with the API of a well known CRM platform, and I want to use Angular. I feel like I can't even start unless I have some basic/intermediate understanding of all the technologies at hand...I can't just start coding because I don't know how to code in angular, I don't know what my code needs to do to interact with the chrome APIs, etc...so I'm also stuck in tutorials until I feel I have the right level of knowledge to truly get started. I'm open to suggestions
This is correct. Thanks!
Hey dude this is a great video, how about you post a list of projects beginners can do ranging from simple to advanced

I only watch if i need to so keep it up
great............
Hey Kyle. I started working for a company that makes me copy templates from Colorbid and change them to fit the design of the g.designer. I feel a bit bad, like a copy-paste guy. Same with JS. I want to do a Wizard and they tell me to copy the plug-in Steps and get done with it quicker. Is it like that everywhere? I studied hard to do something else...
Drop a video on JS game development bro. I need inspiration. & also can u talk about the difference between client side and server side and when it makes sense to use either or.
simplified truth...
I am definitely in tutorial hell. I have good knowledge about syntax but I am not doing well applying the knowledge. I have limited success watching youtube videos. It takes a lot of time and after watching them and they often do not help. They tend to be too vague, to simple, or out of date, especially for complicated frameworks such as Spring. Does anyone offer weekly online courses that doesn't cost a lot ?
A tutorial video on how to quite tutorial videos.
I am not in tutorial hell, but I got a portfolio done with about 9 projects using most React/Node. I am applying to jobs but getting no replies from them.
Thank you sooooooooo much!
ur the best bro
Thank you
Interesting video. I will watch others.
