Understanding but not able to execute it on my own

Hello, My question is more about my own ability actually.

I can read the codes I can understand them even. Why are they there and why we need them. But, When I try to create one ( or the same one) from scratch I can't do it. I look at empty page. Do you think it is normal for beginners like me or should I back to previous lessons and try from the beginning?? Didn't miss a single video.

Kind of wondering is this general issue or just me ??

  1. Practice!!!! (I like coderbyte.com)
  2. Creating an outline to have a clear idea of what you need to do is very important so you don't confuse yourself!

I think it all takes time. Keep learning and keep practicing. That way, you will get the in the end.

Perhaps step back from the code initially and breakdown the problem you are trying to solve. Perhaps break that down into UI problems, data problems etc. Then chunk the solution out into those parts slowly,
