Continue. Everybody has doubts at some point in their career, should I pursue this course, should I get rid of this one.

This is not failure to launch, rather, it is failure to fly.

If your skills are not yet good enough, then improve them as you code, the best way to improve is to keep coding, even if it doesn't work out then at least you will leave with a sound knowledge of your chosen platform.

You have already invested months in to this project, the very least you could do is release the minimum viable project and then using requests from your users, improve upon the project in real-time.

It is only as difficult as you make it. You can do this. Have faith. Not the crappy faith you might possibly get if you ask your chosen deity for help, but the faith you can use to keep the will to continue.

You can do this.
