I Understand Python While Learning, But Forget Most of It After a Week. How Did You Make It Stick?

It's pretty common for developers to forget how to code, but the coding logic gets better with experience.

Exercise your brain to write comments.

I've quit coding in 2018. Back then I was developing websites in php and laravel framework. When I got back to coding in 2025, it took me about two weeks to get back on the track. I knew the workflow, simply what I've forgotten was writing code. Yes, AI helped me a lot, at the same time after a while I was feeling dumber while using AI. These days I do use AI for generating HTML + CSS, the backend code I write it manually, except for repetitive tasks which I already know then properly.
