@bahdcoder The important thing is understanding the concept behind what you’re doing. Then you’d know how to structure your search for what you need at those times.

@mechtaviouss That's true. I use this principle every day as I work too.

@bahdcoder Your tweets has helped me alot

@Adedejikenny9 Happy to hear sir !

@bahdcoder Absolutely. And you'll only know the thing you're currently working or you've recently implemented. Not all you've ever done. It's a trend driven development...

@bahdcoder Total agree. Ive been coding for 23 years and I make a point of not memorizing coding task/syntax that can easily be looked up. Now I use Copilot and ChatGPT. But stack overflow and similar sites are great resources. In the domain of a single language there is far to much…

@bahdcoder Hmmm!! Very instructive

@bahdcoder Google is always my friend oo.. stackoveflow always coming to the rescue most times. And now with OpenAI, it is always a rollercoaster

@bahdcoder I really needed to hear this, thanks for this amazing tip.

@bahdcoder Google is your friend

@bahdcoder alot of devs need to get this... Technologies one would use in a stack keep increasing and expanding so trying (and failing obviously) to memorise every won't be a smart way to deliver work

@bahdcoder What if one is given a test, won't google and the likes be regarded as plagiarism?

@bahdcoder Very true. This thought alone fueled my imposter syndrome when I started, but I just determined to understand the concept and how to solve problems. Then it started getting clearer.

@bahdcoder Talk to me sir. I'm still a novice though with basic knowledge in HTML N CSS, but When I look @ some landing page, I feel like I know the HTML elements and CSS properties to build it with. But, to start now. Na to dey crack brain up N down.

@bahdcoder What i actually needed to hear Thanks

@bahdcoder True, I see most Devs forget code after they have written it. Understanding concept is the way forward.

@bahdcoder Learn to familiarise rather memorise
