[Iva](https://hashnode.com/@IvaKop) i want to build a shopping cart system with nodejs, i earlier went online looking for a tutorial on how to build a shopping cart in nodejs . Now reading your article i realise that i would miss out on thinking through the problem myself. I have a good knowledge of nodejs.

what would you do in this situation

Hey! I would definitely try to think through the problem by myself first (especially if I am familiar with the technology). Once I have a good idea about what my solution would look like, I would probably still look at how other people approach the same problem (in tutorials or actual source code). This might give me a better idea or help me enhance my existing solution. When I am confident that I have a good approach that suits my use case, I would implement it. 😉
