I bought different courses on Udemy in the past on JavaScript and it always ended up bad.
Bad in the sense that every course seems to be filling your head with lots of theory which is very hard to apply in a real life context and application.
I'm currently following a Node.JS course and I'm experiencing the same thing, once again.
I realized copying what the teacher does isn't the solution. That's a waste of time.
Now, instead of watching the lessons without using my head and actually putting some mental effort into understanding the relation between the code, functions, etc. I'm spending hours on a single lesson/exercise, trying to truly understand what's happening.
I wonder if any of you have particular methods to get the most out of coding tutorials and courses.
I also realized documentations are often the best way to go, and they are free.
