You’ll understand the editor better and because of that can configure it to exactly how you want, and integrate things you regularly use into it (such as plugin features and bash functions) and also learn some Lua along the way
Learn coding from YouTube videos/books/etc whatever you prefer
Break the information you learn down into small, applicable chunks. For example: How do you add heading in HTML? Use <h1> tag.
Write that information down. Handwrite it, don’t type it. This is because handwriting things helps you memorize it a lot better. Focus on what you write and try to understand what its doing and why it was designed that way.
Use the information in small projects, using the stuff you wrote as a reference. Those small projects can be like “simple python script that uses a for loop to print text”, aka simple things you don’t release to the public and solely exist for practice
Revisit the stuff you learned after a couple days aka try making the same projects again or a new project that uses the same concepts.
Using this pattern I’ve been able to learn things much faster than most others. It’s based on a lot of tricks people use for memorize things better, such as writing things down and spaced repetition.</h1>
