Learning Code Good
summary
A practical blueprint for learning by reading and doing: weekly one‑hour sessions with one hour, small group sizes of four–five, a tour guide to keep progress, and code slices of about 100 lines of code to make exploration manageable. Sessions pair live experiments (pry/irb), targeted research to fill gaps (example: digging into Rack middleware), and refactoring critiques (omniauth meetup gem case), producing faster confidence, visible collaboration patterns, and steady progression from novice toward expert.
