I too am in the same boat. I too am overwhelmed by the amount of information out there.
Currently what I do is, I make content, and to make content, I need to learn. Also, If I take up any online class, I make sure there is a certification awarded.
Another thing I do is always try to do something that adds the green square in my github profile.
In short, if you produce more, you will automatically learn more.
Now, what to learn depends entirely on your choice, also for me, I am Ok to quitting if I don't like any course.
I wanted to write to express myself better and create a home for me on the interwebs. Also I wanted to improve my technical skills and what better way to write my experiences and be accountable for.
The UI looks great and thanks for sharing the code. I would definitely look at the code to learn how you implemented. I too am a learner and have been doing Flutter UI challenges for couple of months now to gain comfortable knowledge about this amazing platform. One thing I addon is to write my experience in a blog post, it helps me grip my understanding of the concept.
I can relate to the post, having just started for couple of months now, learning to write code for your self is satisfying. I have followed several youtube videos to learn programming language, but the fruitful results only come from working on side projects/challenges etc.
The only way to account my progress is through github commits. I love the color green. ;)
I too am a web developer and have constantly been fascinated by new technologies. I had looked at android development but could not get a hang of Java. Recently flutter has been in the wild and so I choose to get my hands dirty by doing flutter challenges. I loved the process and the ease of working with flutter so I ensure that I spend at least 1 hour everyday developing in flutter. I look forward to getting off from work so I can switch on my home laptop and do some flutter. P.S : I will continue being a web developer.
Hola. Not related to this post, but I remember you from the early days of Envato when Jeffrey way and you had most of the blog posts. I learned a lot and kickstarted my career from those tutorials. Cheers and All the best..!!!
Like the comment below - started with Symfonator UI.
Generally I started learning symfony for new work then I keep playing with it more and more and.... then I started to have some personal issues where I have more things to do, to manage, to remember about and so on.
I couldnt handle it on my own on that point so either I solve my problem or will suffer.
I worked on setting up jekyll and made the site as per my like. I have plans to continue writing and maintaining an online journey. Brings a smile everytime I make some commits in the repository. :)
In short, if you produce more, you will automatically learn more.
Now, what to learn depends entirely on your choice, also for me, I am Ok to quitting if I don't like any course.
