Asked By CuriousCoder42 On

A few months ago, I took a long break from programming after struggling with learning Unreal Engine for about six months. I faced burnout and felt like I didn't really grasp the material. Now, I'm trying to learn Go, but it's not going as well as I'd hoped. I'm looking for tips on how to get back into programming effectively.

Some folks just find programming harder than others (not saying you’re one of them). I think it’s important to focus on what interests you! If you build something you’re excited about, it’ll be easier to stay motivated.

If you're looking for resources, CodeSignal has a free course that provides a nice gentle introduction to C++. It might be a good way to ease back into programming.

Set realistic goals for yourself! Try to practice a little every day, whether it’s writing code or reading about programming. Completing small projects daily can really help you regain momentum. You can find ideas for projects on GitHub, like this collection [link].

Your progress depends a lot on your background in programming and computer science. If you’re diving into Unreal, I’d recommend first getting comfortable with C++. It’ll make learning Unreal much easier. Spend some time understanding CS concepts with C++.

Getting back into coding after a break can be tough, but it helps to start with simpler projects to regain your confidence. Try picking a project that’s manageable and build up from there.
