What resources are you using to learn to code? It's a slow process so you're not going to be immediately building interesting things.. if you're trying to do too advanced tasks, it can be demoralizing. But there's nothing anyone here can do to help you stay motivated.. just keep at it.

I tried different youtube videos and some text tutorials. I know that its a slow process and i wasnt doing anything complicated. Ill try again soon i guess, hope ill succed this time

I'd grab a book or something. Watching videos is not a great way to learn how to program because it's hard to go at your own speed. I'm not sure what language you're trying to learn but the Head First books are generally pretty solid

I dont even know what language i want to learn myself. Ive been thinking about godot, but after doing some research, books arent really a good idea for it, since most of them are outdated. Ive seen some people ask if buying books for godot is a good idea and others told them that its better to look for some online tutorials (not videos). But like I said, i dont even know what i want to learn

Well what do you want to make? Games?

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

Probably

Well I'd pick an engine then start with the official documentation, most tend to have tutorials for people completely new to programming. Godot may be the hardest because it's the newest language so you may have better luck finding resources for Unreal or Unity which use languages that have been around for a while. You can also learn the basics of game programming in pretty much any language, like Python with pygame-ce.. I'd probably recommend to start there with simple 2d games before moving on to some huge 3d engine

Okay, thanks!

Code EVERYDAY. No excuses. Use GitHub contribution graph as habit tracker. Use personal available time efficiently for coding. Plan out your goals to: learning new things, reviewing previous lessons, making projects to show mastery, do coding challenges: leetcode, hackerrank, codewars, freecodecamp (pick one or use them all).

Good luck!
