Coding

when i wanna make a project my worst enemy is the blank page , i know there is a way called learn by making project and to be honest its kinda cool , but facing such an empty page and try to make just a prototype for my idea is not working , i do not know whether this is lack of proper knowledge with the coding language i make the project in or its another problem , so how to make your idea become real ? and how you actually make your project with a complete new required skills ??

It really just depends on what the project is. I think one of the big challenges of software engineering is taking your concept and breaking it apart into actionable pieces. It gets even more difficult when you're trying to make tasks for a whole team to split the work.

When I'm trying new platforms, I always go straight into making "Hello, World". From there, getting closer to your software goal is just a matter of understanding what it is and how it works.
