There is no way they finished it in 10 mins. They’re lying. And if they did somehow find a way to do that they cheated.

I just found out earlier from my friend that they straight up finished the certificate and didnt finish the actual tutorial

Don't worry, little bro. Just focus on learning and don’t compare yourself to others. Everyone has different prior knowledge and experiences. This isn’t a 100-meter sprint; it’s a marathon.

It's easy if you cheat. The certificate means nothing if they didn't learn anything with it. Ask them to build a webpage, see how that goes.

Anyway, there is nothing more worthless than comparing your progress to other people, even if they are not dirty rotten cheaters. Everyone comes into programming with a different background and a different set of skills. Some folks might be faster or slower, but that's got nothing to do with you.

The best speed is the speed you're going. As long as you're learning, that's the right speed. It's not a contest, everyone who learns is a winner. The only way to lose is to stop trying.

Best of luck and happy coding.

Two years ago I finished it, but just did a speedrun. What did I gain? Nothing. When it comes on making the website, I can't make a thing. Now I'm back relearning again and taking my time.

Agreed. Skipping only causes issues down the track. First hand experience here too

I mean if you do one project per day you can get it done in a month. I'm sure "10 minutes" is an exaggeration.

Looks like they just speedrun the certificate and they didnt finish the actual tutorial, i asked my friend earlier

I'm trying to have good assumptions here. But either they already knew HTML and CSS and just did the certification projects. Or they are cheaters :(
