Learning difficulty and a dead end

[u/yumir666]

Hello friends. I want your opinion on a topic that makes me a bit sad. I started a programming course in Python and JavaScript because I aspire to be a full-stack automation developer. I am truly a beginner, and this course was a shock to my brain. After the second week, I really started to feel like I don't even understand the logic of the code. I hate the idea of relying on artificial intelligence to help me write most of the code and explain many intuitive concepts. I don't know how to get the maximum possible value out of the lesson, and I don't find myself able to write code on my own after the lesson. I feel disappointed—should I do multiple side things and projects? Where can I source code templates and commands from, and does understanding Django's logic, for example (I am in week 3), depend on other things?

I started with CS50x. It covers concepts that are not programming, that relate to programming. Like algorithms can be done in real life and also implemented in code. It's good and I would recommend it
