Merry Christmas to all my nighas. And I am back with another study top. If you are a dev or learning to code. And trying to master entire frameworks quickly . Try to have a study partner or programming buddies. Many frameworks in tech are very comprehensive and vast so when when learning something big like React, Django, Next.js.
Try having a partner it makes solo grinding into collaborative effort. You explain concepts to each other teaching reinforces your own understanding catch blind spots immediately, and divide the workload. Like for example one person dives deep into routing/state management while the other tackles backend models/APIs, then you sync up to integrate. This pair programming style has helped me a lot.
It often leads to higher quality code and deeper retention also because you're constantly verbalizing thought processes.
You can find great study partners in several on Reddit subreddits like r/ProgrammingBuddies, r/learnprogramming, or framework-specific ones (r/reactjs, r/django) where people regularly post "looking for a study buddy" threads.
Or freeCodeCamp, The Programmer's Hangout, or specific tech communities, CodeBuddies.org DevBuddies (buddies.dev) that match people based on stack interests. Once you connect, set regular sessions ( loke weekly pair programming via VS Code Live Share or Zoom screen share), pick a shared project, and watch how fast you internalize the entire framework it's one of the most effective ways to go from knowing about it to building production level stuff with it confidently. Evrything that I said applies to any other niche or field also. Give it a try you'll likely progress 2-3× faster than going alone.
