If you're listening to this episode, you probably want to learn to code. But, you might be overwhelmed and wondering how to learn or where to start.

Thankfully, the best-articulated strategy we've come across for learning anything is dead simple: do the real thing.

In this episode, we talk through the core tenets of this idea as well as approaches for applying it when learning to code. We originally covered this topic in episode #20.
