What course is best to begin with?

Question

I really need to learn how to develop and build Apps cause I came up with an amazing idea! I was going to start immediately with Java, but my problem is that I don't really understand this much... Any tips on where to start out?

@Edward
You're welcome. I know my approach is very direct and blunt most often, but I assure my intentions are good. Considering that you even began teaching yourself, you're doing better at teaching yourself than most people are. Most people won't even start unless they're forced to do so.

Keep pushing forward with it all and you'll be an amazing programmer before you realize it! Trust me, although it's a long hard path to get there, it's a destination worth arriving to. Be patient and steady with your steps forward.

That's like reading "A....B....C.... Okay, I just don't get it, so I'm going to stop right here." The point I'm making is that you've barely started learning Java and going through the course, but you've already stopped and are here saying you don't really understand it. Of course you don't understand it, you haven't learned it yet. :) It worked exactly like anything else. You can't read one chapter of math and turn into a math genius. It takes a lot of reading, studying, researching, and practicing to get good or master it.

This is what I recommend you do. Read through the Java course all the way, even if you don't understand everything yet. Afterward, practice what you read and try out any of the stuff that you did understand, even if it's as simple as "System.out.println("Hello World!");" Then start over and read through the course again. This time write down notes of anything you still don't understand. Example: "Research: Classes and Inheritance" When you're done, take your notes and go to Google to research everything you can on the concepts you still dont understand. Afterward, practice all of it again, including the stuff you didn't previously understand. Repeat this whole process until you've mastered it. When you've got a good grasp on the basics of the languages, then you'll want to research further resources so you can further your knowledge of the language. There is a lot more to it than is posted here on SoloLearn, but this is a great place to get your feet wet.

Best of luck to ya!
