<h4>Confusion is your friend!</h4>
<p>i dont really have advice, im just scared. When you start programming your first web app you are doing something that you have never done
before. It's a new challenge, a new opportunity, and in the case of software development, something
so specific that it's probably never been done before.</p>

<p>Confusion, therefore, is a sign that you are heading in the right direction. It's a signal that you
have engaged in the problem solving pursuit that is math and technology and that it's time for you
to dig deeper and keep going because clarity awaits.</p>

<h4>Suspended disbelief plays an important role.</h4>
<p>When you are learning a new technology, whether you are learning to write your first programming
language, or just the latest framework, you go through this uncomfortable phase where you know that
the code you are looking at is doing this THING but you don't understand HOW exactly it's happening.
</p>

<p>This is a normal part of the process of learning a new technology, and in fact, it's a critical part
of the process.</p>

<p>You see when you encounter a new programming language part of your learning process includes learning
to train your eye. The way to train your eye is to read a good deal of code even when you don't
totally understand what it's doing.</p>
