Based on this, I'm surprised your suggestion isn't to start out by diagraming out the product. I feel like if you had one day, that might have more value than the time spent in a gamified sandbox.
Sounds like it's going pretty well for you. What do you plan to build afterward?
I have several apps in mind - I'm writing a guide on UK tender responses, and will build a larger app around that subject once the guide is done, with a bunch of smaller apps to directly support the guide (freebies to drive interest, essentially). We'll see how it goes; I'm not expecting magic, but it's a good exercise to learn code with a specific goal in mind.
When you're done with the Udemy course, it could be fun to have a chat about it. If you ever want a code review or something - let me know. : )
I just asked my lawyer to send it to me. They had some go-to boilerplate that they adjusted just a little.
This would certainly be my ideal! (for pretty much everything) and it's surprising how rare it is that someone suggests it.
