Shit, even if you give someone all the Lego blocks in the world and a infinity accurate picture of the minimally complex final product, less than 1% would figure it out.

I bootstrapped dev learning by collecting all the necessary pieces of code but at the end of the data I feel like I'm just writing a huge semitechnical novel and the problems I encounter have nothing to do with the basic building blocks, it's entirely about code flow, data flow, entry points, race conditions and things you encounter after you hit 99% of test cases.

This stuff seems like new age "low code" environments.
