If you're looking for motivation, this isn't your page.
I talk about software, systems, and the mistakes devs keep repeating.
Follow if you care about building things that work.
Go compiler when I declare a variable and don't use it
"Declared and not used. Fix it."

Go: fix it NOW
Honestly the most disciplined friend I have
You don't need to know everything before you start building.
I still google basic syntax.
I still look up docs mid-project.
I still get stuck on things I've done before.
Experience doesn't mean memorising everything.
It means knowing how to find what you need.
Variables in JavaScript explained simply
let = I might change this later
const = I will never change this
var = I wrote this in 2015 and I'm scared to touch it
That's it. That's the lesson

The moment JavaScript clicked for me was when I stopped thinking about code and started thinking about instructions.
You're not writing code
You're telling a very literal, very obedient machine exactly what to do.
It does exactly what you say. Not what you meant. What you said.
That's the whole game.
