沒有人告訴您關于學習編碼的知識-以及為什么如此困難 (What Nobody Tells You About Learning To Code — And Why That Makes It So Hard)

Are you familiar with the article Why Learning to Code is So Damn Hard?

您是否熟悉這篇文章《為什么學習編碼如此之難》？

If not, check it out.

如果沒有，請檢查一下。

It’s good.

很好。

A few weeks ago I recorded a podcast with the guy who wrote it, Erik Trautman. He founded Viking Code School. Before that, he founded The Odin Project, a free and open-source curriculum for learning web development.

幾周前，我與編寫它的人Erik Trautman錄制了一個播客。他創立了維京代碼學校。在此之前，他創立了The Odin Project ，這是一個用于學習Web開發的免費開放源代碼課程。

After we discussed his history with the Odin Project and Viking Code School, we dug into why, exactly, learning to code is so hard when you’re just getting started out.

在與Odin Project和Viking Code School討論了他的歷史之后，我們深入研究了為什么剛入門時很難學習編碼。

And he said something. Something that blew my mind.

他說了些什么。令我震驚的事情。

Because what he was saying, it rang so true. It resonated with my own experience learning to code.

因為他說的是真的。我在學習編碼方面的經驗引起了共鳴。

It reverberated through the halls of my brain, echoing every person who has emailed me about how hard it is to learn how to code. To get started out.

它在我的大腦中回蕩，回蕩給每個給我發電子郵件的人，這些人學習如何編碼非常困難。開始。

And what he was saying — nobody talks about it. Ever.

他在說什么-沒人談論。曾經

What do we find, when we look for ways to learn how to code?

當我們尋找學習編碼的方法時，我們會發現什么？

Programs. Workshops. Bootcamps. And they all make promises.

程式。講習班。新手營。他們都承諾。

Build a website in 3 hours. No technical knowledge or background necessary.

在3小時內建立一個網站。無需技術知識或背景知識。

Go to a 2-day workshop on Ruby on Rails. Walk away with enough knowledge to build real applications and make money doing it.

參加為期2天的Ruby on Rails研討會。掌握足夠的知識以構建實際的應用程序并從中賺錢。

Learn HTML in a weekend.

在周末學習HTML。

Master JavaScript in 5 days.

在5天內精通JavaScript。

Pay your $29, $200, whatever, and you will know everything there is to know about SQL.

支付29美元，200美元或其他費用 ，您將了解有關SQL的所有知識。

Check off the box. On to the next one.

選中復選框。轉到下一個。

Except that’s not how it works, at all.

除非那不是它的工作原理。

This isn’t a rant on empty promises or bad programs. This is what nobody tells you when you’re getting started with learning to code.

這不是空洞的承諾或糟糕的計劃。當您開始學習編碼時，這是沒有人告訴您的。

Learning to code is not a linear progression. You don’t check off a box and then you’re done. You don’t learn everything there is to know about a language or concept because you took one workshop or class.

學習編碼不是線性發展。您無需選中一個框，然后就可以完成。您不會學習任何關于某種語言或概念的知識，因為您參加了一次講習班或課程。

Learning to code is a cycle of ups and downs. And the downs are really down. You get so stuck that you want to pull your hair out. You get frustrated. Discouraged.

學習編碼是一個起伏的循環。跌勢真的很低。你被卡住了，想把頭發拔出來。你會感到沮喪。灰心。

You start asking:

您開始問：

Am I really going to make it as a developer?
我真的要成為一名開發人員嗎？
Will anyone actually pay me to do this?
會有人實際付錢給我這樣做嗎？
Am I wasting months trying to learn something that won’t pan out?
我是在浪費幾個月的時間來嘗試學習不會成功的東西嗎？

So if learning to code isn’t easy, isn’t linear and isn’t just about checking off boxes… what do you do? How do you get from here to there, whatever your there is?

因此，如果學習編碼并不容易，不是線性的并且不只是要勾選框……您該怎么辦？你如何從這里到那里，無論你有？

Erik’s advice?

埃里克的建議？

Define what you want to DO with the skills you’ll learn. Focus on whatever your “there” is.

定義將要學習的技能。專注于您的“那里”。

Is it being a full-stack developer? A freelance web developer? Get specific.

它是一個全棧開發人員嗎？自由網頁開發人員？具體。

When you focus on what you want to do versus what class to take next, you subtly shift your mindset from one that is skills-based to one that is competency-based.

當你專注于你想要做什么與類接下來采取什么樣的，你巧妙地你的心態從一個轉變，就是以技能為基礎，以一個是能力為基礎。

Instead of taking course after course, then getting discouraged that you aren’t making progress or learning fast enough — you focus on how every time you code, every time you grasp a new skill, you level up.

而不是一門又一門地學習，然后灰心自己沒有取得足夠的進步或學習得不夠快，而是著重于每次編寫代碼，每次掌握新技能時如何升級。

You become more and more competent and able to achieve your overarching goal, your entire reason for learning. It’s easier to progress. You’re striving forward in the big picture instead of floundering in the day-to-day.

您將變得越來越有能力，并且有能力實現自己的總體目標，學習的全部理由。進步更容易。您正在朝著大局前進，而不是在日常工作中掙扎。

You learn. You build. You still hit walls, perhaps more often than you expect to. You possibly consider giving up. But if you focus on your end goal and keep pushing through, You create a base knowledge of the fundamentals, and you keep packing on.

你學。你建立。您仍然碰壁，也許比您預期的更多。您可能會考慮放棄。但是，如果您專注于最終目標并不斷努力，那么您將創建基礎知識，并不斷積累。

You may need to take five courses on JavaScript to feel like you’re finally grasping it. And you probably still won’t know everything there is to know about JavaScript. And that’s OK.

您可能需要學習五門關于JavaScript的課程，才能感覺到自己終于掌握了它。而且，您可能仍然可能不了解JavaScript。沒關系。

You may need to forever be Googling the differences between function expressions and function declarations. And that’s OK.

您可能需要永遠一直在谷歌搜索函數表達式和函數聲明之間的差異。沒關系。

Learning to code is an ongoing cycle of learning new concepts. Of finding and adding new pieces of the puzzle, and making that puzzle bigger and bigger until you’ve achieved the competency level needed to land your dream job or first freelance clients.

學習編碼是學習新概念的一個持續循環。找到并添加新的難題，并使難題變得越來越大，直到您達到從事夢想工作或第一批自由職業者所需的能力水平。

And sometimes it will feel like you’re taking two steps forward and one step back. And the frustration hits again, and maybe you want to quit. But you keep going.

有時，您會感覺好像向前邁了兩步，而后退了一步。挫折感再次襲來，也許您想退出。但是你繼續前進。

Because you have a why for learning to code. An end goal. A reason to move forward.

因為你有一個為什么學習代碼。最終目標。前進的理由。

Because the truth is, you may never know everything there is to know about JavaScript — and you definitely won’t know everything there is to know about JavaScript in a 2-day workshop.

因為事實是，您可能永遠不會了解JavaScript的所有知識—在為期2天的研討會中，您肯定不會了解JavaScript的所有知識。
