  +1 A lot of dev, like me in the college, have the tendency to get everything right before starting writing first line of code when learning something new, in hope that orthodox practice will help avoiding pitfalls on the way. But what I really learned along those years, is that pitfalls are inevitable, and expose yourself to them at the early phase of learning is helpful so that you could later appreciate other people's solution and the reasoning behind. Trying to get everything right from beginning hinder you from getting such first-hand and organic insight, and wondering with tools too much will stray yourself from focusing on the essentials.
