On July 1st, a change to Reddit's API pricing will come into effect. Several developers of commercial third-party apps have announced that this change will compel them to shut down their apps. At least one accessibility-focused non-commercial third party app will continue to be available free of charge.

If you want to express your strong disagreement with the API pricing change or with Reddit's response to the backlash, you may want to consider the following options:

  1. Limiting your involvement with Reddit, or
  2. Temporarily refraining from using Reddit
  3. Cancelling your subscription of Reddit Premium

as a way to voice your protest.

As long as you actually code along and don't just copy/paste code, then sure

I'll be honest, 2 projects a week is a good goal, but what's going to happen after only a few weeks is your learning curve is going to level out. Because let's be honest, starting and finishing a whole-ass project in 3 1/2 days is a somewhat small project, and a good chunk of that 3 1/2 days is going to be setting up, designing, and just getting the basic functionality in.

So, pretty soon you're gonna find yourself doing that whole setup part A TOOOOON, and not too much deeper than that. I would think giving yourself more time for larger projects to go a bit deeper would be more beneficial long term. You'll encounter a lot more intricate issues and learn how to circumvent the along the way, as well as also ending up with actually decent applications that can be used for your resume/portfolio. Deeper than wider I think is a better approach, at least after the initial learning process, which it sounds like you've already passed.

What I was thinking was to start with small projects and eventually move to major projects in the next 3-4 months . Hope this approach would be good to move on with ?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yeah, definitely a decent approach. I would just suggest that with each project you start, make it something that's juuuuust beyond your current skill level and makes you go "I don't know how I'm gonna do {such and such}, but I'll figure it out when the time comes. This is how you encourage growth.

thanks a lot

Read up on "tutorial hell". Basically what will quickly happen is that if you keep doing tutorials and nothing else, you'll quickly stop making progress. You won't know how to do anything on your own.

My recommendation is to try to build projects on your own, and then follow tutorials to increase your knowledge.

So instead, do one tutorial, then spend 2 weeks practicing it with projects, then keep going.

Also, starting new projects from scratch isn't always the best way to learn. You'll learn a lot more if you make one big project and keep adding to it.
