Heard a guy on a podcast say the average beginner quits coding after 21 days, tracked mine and made it to 40
I was listening to a freeCodeCamp chat while walking my dog in Fresno back in March, and the host said most new coders drop off around day 21 when loops finally click but projects still feel impossible. I wrote that number in my notebook and marked each day on a cheap calendar, and hitting day 40 last Sunday felt weirdly big even though my only project is a dumb tip calculator. Did any of you keep some kind of streak when you started, or did you just code whenever the mood hit?
