amendola so fast

Are noobs like me supposed to code this fast?! I can only barely understand after pausing dozens of times.
Are we expected to code flawless programs like this on our own at this point? I want to know how to take this. Thanks in advance.

I don't think a beginner programmer is expected to code quickly, especially in a learning environment. I've found it helpful to slowdown the video using the interface in the bottom right of the video's settings.

If the treehouse workspaces aren't doing it for you, I recommend downloading a popular integrated development environment (IDE). This way, you can start documenting your learning as you go and organizing each lesson into their respective modules and chapters on your own device.

Everyone learns differently, so don't feel discouraged if it doesn't click right away. To solidify the lesson, I personally like to rewatch the video as many times as I need to until I get that 'ah ha' moment. Most of the time this also requires some trial and error with the code itself. Most importantly, take breaks when you feel like you need a refresher!
