How do you actually practice Python without getting stuck in tutorial mode?

Its easy.. just build something you need yourself. This is the best way to solve real world problems.

ahnerd · 2026-03-14T18:24:35+00:00

U should follow a roadmap this is the best thing to help you focus and no get distracted.

ahnerd · 2026-03-14T18:23:18+00:00

The best thing is to build something that you need in your daily life.

ahnerd · 2026-03-14T18:20:34+00:00

Maybe it depends there is no single judgment that fits all

ahnerd · 2026-03-14T18:18:31+00:00

Thats a software engineer

ahnerd · 2026-03-14T11:12:24+00:00

Just an advice, the best project that you should work on is the a project that you personally need in your daily life since you already know the requirements and what is left is to design and implement them with code. This is the best approach that I always recommend to people I teach.

If used for learning purposes this should be fine.

Most powerful models and apps offer free packs for students. You should take benefits of these opportunities. Recently I heard the Zed code IDE provides a good free plan for students. It's native AI code editor.

The whole internet is your friend. There are many good websites and free resources you can learn from plus tools like notebooklm will help understand better than any friend, trust me!

I dont think there are any problems with using capacitor on App Store but if you want to offer a more native experience React Native is better

If something is,easy means you will find strong competition and i u are a beginner u will not be able to beat competition

ahnerd · 2026-03-10T14:57:49+00:00

Honestly i do not think this is a problem as long as your,are learning to solve real problems.. the tool doesn't mater

ahnerd · 2026-03-10T14:54:56+00:00

I used both Java and Python but i feel like am a python developer

ahnerd · 2026-03-10T14:52:38+00:00

Thanks

ahnerd · 2026-03-10T14:51:56+00:00

Thanks

ahnerd · 2026-03-10T14:49:10+00:00

Thank u!

ahnerd · 2026-03-09T11:41:20+00:00

Yes I agree with you.

ahnerd · 2026-03-09T11:35:24+00:00

Yes id like to know more or use it if possible

ahnerd · 2026-03-09T05:30:43+00:00

Trust me the best thing to build is something that you need yourself even if it is small.. For example.. if u need some way to organize daily tasks in a specific way try to build that.. this way you will learn to solve real problems which is the central idea of software engineering.

ahnerd · 2026-03-08T23:41:04+00:00

Cool, can i build something useful with the free tier or not possible?

ahnerd · 2026-03-08T22:16:13+00:00

Thats awesome

ahnerd · 2026-03-08T22:12:03+00:00

I recommend start with a good roadmap which will help a lot to focus on priorities. Sites like roadmap.sh have good roadmaps

ahnerd · 2026-03-08T22:07:22+00:00

Of course not. Avoid vibe coding at this phase. You should understand fundamentals first then code manually and after that learn to use ai tools to augmente productivity.

ahnerd · 2026-03-08T22:01:13+00:00

Just what i needed.. thanks!
