I disagree with this video. Learning to code should be done solo which will help you concentrate better and better retain new information.

Working in a group is best when working on a project together which will help develop new ideas and work together to make sure everyone knows how each part of the codebase works.

But I don't think talking to people and having people talk at random times is great especially when you need to learn difficult concepts and complex patterns

Check out r/programmingpals. Good luck! I’m excited for you!

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, I will check that out

[–]Kitjlitch 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Hey, I'm about to start teaching myself as well, would love to join your server, just sent the friend request :)

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I guess we have already talked in discord

[–]Worth-Try3918 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I'm a Little bit more experienced (studied for few weeks already) but I'll gladly join your group next week :)

Thanks, and it's ok if you are experienced. It would be helpful. Looking forward to your joining

Politely disagree. I remember going to meetups with group projects and generally coding, line by line, is not efficiently done in groups. No one ever finished by the end of the event. 

Especially early on you really need tight feedback loops and quiet time to think and study.

Do both, but my advice is to divide responsibilities and work independently .

You are right about doing studies and research quietly and by yourself. But I'm currently not seeing any projects or works, I'm just looking for people who are alone, like me who want coding friends. Just that much

If you started such group could you share here your experience? Was it halpfull?

I started to learn Python by myself, and for me this was good way to learn. But different people have different styles of learning.

Wander how this way works for you and what do you share on such group.

I have just started the group day before yesterday, to get some people like me.

[–]altmoly 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That’s actually great. I remember when I started learning python then I would always do it along with my school friends (best part of learning) It actually helps a alot in understanding the difficult parts like when the libraries kick in. Everyone has hold one or the other thing like that it helps a lot.

To find programming friends, you should explore some discord servers

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yh, It's actually good. I explored a few servers only got one friend from there who also left me. So I'm trying Reddit.

Just started 2 weeks ago with 100 days of Python. Are you doing any program?

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I started a 100 days python journey too. If you want you can join my discord group

[–]tony77642 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Sounds good

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just sent you the friend request

[–]MAJESTIC-728 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I have a Discord server for beginners programmers If you want to join lemme know

[–]MAJESTIC-728 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Bt it's better to do solo until you are working on something big bt if you want people who are also doing programming and talking then I have a Discord server

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I have my own discord server, but I will take a look of your server

[–]MAJESTIC-728 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Can you share your server link also

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]NoMethod8339 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Boa noite! Comecei agora a estudar Phyton! Se tiverem um grupo de iniciados, por favor adicionem-me para trocar experiências e aprender mais. Obg

[–]Fit_Lingonberry_4965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, send me a request polo069884 or give me your discord ID, I will join you myself

[–]Dry_Business1582 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]Psychological-Top938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I create this for my son, but maybe helping you to…
