Learning to program was like a far fetched dream that I always tried to achieve. But not knowing where to start always brought be to a temporary hault. I usually read things from here and there and then try to replicate it on my own or sometimes inspect certain sites while struggling to find any meaning in the sea of colorful lines. Even being able to understand a single link would get me excited as if I could now hack the pentagon to release all their shenanigans, lol. It was rewarding anyway.
I have struggled to understand coding for few years now. Taking time out to find out what's important for me to start with, where do I find comprehensive material and all these small struggle pays off at the end. Things start to make sense and eventually developes our understanding of the language.
I realized lately that I am a slow learner and I can understand something only after involving myself to a task that requires that knowledge. This self knowledge gave me a push that I have been looking for a long time now. For people struggling to learn something, you need to find the way you learn the best. Know how you learn first and your learning part will turn much easier and smoother.
I started with learning Reactjs few months back and this is the first clone app that I completed following a tutorial. This is also my first ever blog. I am writing off the top of my head so I might have made several mistakes but I am hoping to contribute regularly from now on.
Cheers to app 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

How are you finding React and what do you think of the JSX syntax?
It was quite overwhelming when I first started to follow one of its tutorials. But after around 10 days of working on it I have kind of got a hang of it. It is quite powerful and so far I find it not that difficult for a beginner like me, given we find am easy explaination of what's going on..
