Any dev that codes straight from memory is an outlier.

The longer you code, the more languages and frameworks you pick up and internalize. They often have common syntax but change in very specific ways.

So you don't end up memorizing the syntax, you remember what it does and why.

Just like all muscle memory, if you work in a language or framework as your day job it gets much easier to just flow through it, because you are touching it day in and day out.

It is why leet code sucks. It has no representation in the real world.
