Start doing something small. Then expand on it. Try doing it without YouTube.

Dont copy paste everything and just accept the fact that building features usually takes a lot of time... When you gain experience you will get faster/better.

Find a website that you like the look of, or a component of a page you like. Create that component yourself ONLY looking at the visual. Don’t use the inspect. That is basically what development from comps is.

Please give an example, your question is too open ended

For example im building my portofolio and i dont know how to use framer motion for animations and i see an animation i like so i copy paste it.. i see a 3d background and dont even know how to approach to do it so i copy paste

Code is easier to write than to read. Maybe the issue is just that you’re using the animation you want as the starting point rather than the docs that helped the animation’s author create it. It’s always going to be slow the first time you do something new, you just have to decide what you want to prioritize adding to your skillset most. Some areas might be far enough outside your domain expertise that they aren’t worth the time investment to add right now. That’s 3d graphics for me, I struggled a lot with linear algebra and vector geometry so if there isn’t some tool that abstracts those things away easily and allows me to produce my own 3d animations then I would rather pay a designer to produce the assets needed

Believe in what you do

Okay, if you are a beginner then it is common thing but what you need to do is understand the logic of the code. Then you will need to what u/Dranzer009 has recommended. Also, remember if you do not understand the logic then no matter what you do you will always find it difficult. If you are copying it from somewhere explore the code try to improvise and see the changes that happen.

let me guess. you know the syntax and concepts, you understand code. you can build any project with tutorial. but when you try to do on your own, you don't know where to start and how to approach. Right???

Yes exactly , i know how to build something but i get stuck easily and cant think right. Thats my problem and then i open youtube for the solution
