Used to think I had to memorize every single HTML tag before I could build anything
Spent like 3 months just reading docs and trying to remember all the tags without ever actually making a page. Then last week my buddy who got into coding after me just threw together a site using w3schools and copying examples, and it actually looked good. Does anyone else get stuck in the trap of thinking you gotta know everything before you start?

Not knowing the docs first helps you ask better questions later.

Wait... you're saying you straight up DON'T read the documentation before you start asking questions? That's wild to me man, I can't wrap my head around that approach at all.

Heard a dev podcast say you learn more by breaking stuff first than reading a manual.
