I have been teaching myself to code for seven months with the primary goal of launching a fintech startup. Throughout this journey, I have gained experience with React, React Native, Flask, and Django. While I haven't mastered these frameworks and my learning has been a bit scattered, I have reached a stage where I can build functional applications and understand complex code.

I am currently struggling with whether to start developing my MVP immediately or wait until I am more technically proficient. My perfectionist side tells me I’m not ready and should spend more time studying, but I also worry about wasting time when I could be learning through the actual building process. I feel overwhelmed by this decision and would appreciate advice from those who have faced a similar choice. Is it better to dive into the project and learn as I go, or is it more prudent to build a stronger technical foundation first?

Hi guys, i wanted to know how long does it realistically take you to build an end to end full stack project like an e-commerce website, a news website, a personal portfolio or this regular websites and mobile apps that customers mostly ask for? I am really struggling with perfectionism and i really doubt my skills and knowledge whenever i don’t finish a project in 2 days max.

I am a self taught solo dev and i have been coding consistently for almost 7 months now and although i have a really bad ADHD but still i managed to do some projects using React, React-native and Django and i consider my self a junior full stack developer although i am not confident developer yet and i use AI sometimes.

Also i’d like to know what takes the most time when building something!
