How do you get better at css without burning out when life is busy?
That line sounds cheesy but it got me thru the part where javascript stopped feeling new

I would log the input, the expected output and the actual output first. Once those three are visible, the bug usually stops feeling mysterious. The social part surprised me too

The safe answer is to keep the API boring: clear names, explicit errors and one behavior per function. The Mumbai example makes it feel concrete

Start by reducing it to the smallest reproducible piece, then change one variable at a time. You will learn more from a simple version repeated three times than from a perfect plan you never start.
- Write down the exact error and the input that caused it.
- Make a tiny example, then add pieces back slowly.
- Keep the final fix boring and well-named.
That should give you a solid first pass

Try making a tiny reproduction with no framework code. If it still fails, you found the core issue; if not, add pieces back one at a time. My friend tried it in Dublin and had the opposite result

excellent timing; I was just thinking about better. The Cape Town example makes it feel concrete
