💻Project-Based Learning vs. 🔥Tutorial Hell Which one is better? You probably already know the answer: Project-Based Learning. But why do so many developers get stuck in Tutorial Hell? And more importantly, how can you escape it? Here’s the truth: Tutorials are great for understanding concepts, but they often give you a false sense of progress. You follow along, write the same code, and feel like you're learning—but when it’s time to build something on your own, you’re lost. Why does this happen? 1. Tutorials solve problems for you instead of teaching you how to solve them. 2. They don’t challenge you to think critically or face real-world scenarios. 3. They become a comfort zone, and stepping out feels overwhelming (I know this because I've experienced this, and it does not feel great). Now that you know how you might've fallen into Tutorial Hell, let me tell you how to escape it. How to escape Tutorial Hell: ➡️Start small: Pick a simple project (even a to-do list or portfolio site) and build it from scratch. ➡️Google is your friend: You’ll learn more by searching for solutions than copying them. ➡️Focus on problem-solving: Struggle is part of the process—embrace it. ➡️Limit tutorials: Use them only to understand a concept you’re stuck on, then apply it to your project. When I switched to project-based learning, my growth skyrocketed. Every project teaches you something new, builds your confidence, and helps you create a portfolio that showcases your skills. So, if you’re stuck in Tutorial Hell, remember: the only way out is to start building.
