How to stop being dependent of YouTube tutorials and earn confidence to start developing on my own websites ?

Question

I don’t fill capable without watching YouTube tutorials

Answer 1

Adao Abdala Imagine a time before such videos with step by step tutorials,
before YouTube, Stackoverflow, Udemy, Google, SoloLearn, heck... even the internet as we know it today.

Imagine having to learn only from books and SDK reference documentation to figure out how to learn to program.

Often times, the technology was so new, there weren't any books yet and the documentation was limited.

That's what it was like to learn when I got started in 1996.

If you lack the confidence of programming after a step by step video, you may need to spend more time reading the online documentation, understandings the concepts, and more importantly... practice, practice, practice coding as frequently as possible.

Answer 2

begin with a boilerplate is normal, after that, make small changes when you learn new things, and develop the website. like them:

Answer 3

Don't just watch videos, and stop copy-pasting.
Even if it sounds tiresome, type in the codes yourself, with your OWN hand. You will feel that you actually created something, and you will remember much better about the details. Change a few things compared to the 'template' code, experiment with it, shape it to your own style.

The way to mastery is lots of practice.

Answer 4

You should probably practice first before you actually try to make an actual website.
Practice by making smaller codes:
- Make a calculator HTML , CSS JS
- Make a cube (3D_CSS)
- Make loading animations (CSS)...
>> Think of something _ easy enough for you to code, and make it. Challenge your self.
And if you get stuck on something while you are coding, Sololearn (we) is here to help you.
Then, with those litle snippets of codes practice, you can level up to make an actual website.

(all based on my opinion)

Answer 5

Excellent advice here!!!

Answer 6

Yes, online tutorials are great. But they maybe useless unless you put that knowledge into practice.

Answer 7

Make an project with great importance to you or for yours communitie, that way you will not postpone the need activities to end the job. It will help you a lot. Personaly I don't like to work with projects without personal engagement themes! Youtube helps in some cases but I like to much of github, experts books, Udemy and Edx.
