Thanks for sharing, Ruth! OSS doesn't seem so scary after all, this was really insightful.

This has been my experience as well, but I seem to be more productive when I do very small projects that can be completed in around a couple of days. I intend to commit to doing those kinds of projects every week and see how it goes john

Thank you so much, Maxwell. I'm totally looking forward to joining the React community soon. I've just followed you on twitter and will definitely hit you up with questions when I come across something that doesn't make any sense to me 😄

I keep trying to avoid continually getting stuck in tutorial jail, most times I don't even understand what they say in those videos which makes it a little scary for me to follow.

This is such great advice, Thais! For some reason I've never actually thought about moving my code from codepen to my desktop, it's such a great and inspiring feelin, I feel like actually do own the code 😅 I decided to brush up on the little I already know in javascript, learn the concepts I need to know that I don't already and move to React since I'm enjoying it so far. I hope to have more updates soon, Thanks a lot!

Samantha Ming is amazing, I will definitely be taking this advice and checking out the links you mentioned here. Thank you so much!
