How does this app compare to others on the market? Ex: Mimo

Question

I tried mimo out and felt like I got a good grasp of JS and it quickly reinforced what I knew about HTML/CSS. When I wanted to learn C# I saw overlap with JS but it was incredibly frustrating by the end of it. It was constantly just a mashup up of childish mix and match and I wasn't really learning.It sort of felt like a waste of time. It even advertised "making your first game," and all it did was end with "methods" which left me wondering if I missed something. I've heard people use this app to start a career in the industry after a year of dedicated practice and I'll just have to take it at face value. Do you guys exclusively use SoloLearn, and if not what other resources do you use?

Answer 1

At the end you have to put yourself in challenges to learn programming. Sololearn or mimo can give you start in the language of your choice. But make yourself a portfolio with your practices. For example if you're learning HTML 5 + JavaScript+ CSS 3 + PHP make a site on 000webhost (or whatever your choice is) and start practicing there. Learn to use knowledge bases like forums, communities etc... To ask questions or see how others solved a problem.
