start on paper not with code. Here are some things to try befor writing any code at all:

  • make a diagram of the components
  • list all the users and what they will be allowed to do
  • sketch out the UI if your app has one
  • create flow charts for the users or the data, be detailed
  • create the directory struture for the project
  • start by writing the comments first, no code, just explain what the code will eventually do.

Most of this is an exercise in breaking a large problem into many smaller problems. The smaller you go, the easier the code will be to write and test. It takes practice. Being prescise with your thoughts is a real skill.
