uh oh, sounds like you're in skillset purgatory. The more "mainstream" tutorial sites arent going to help you much any more. I would try to complete a few projects that are a bit out of your comfort zone. Build what you can, module by module and fill in the blanks with google & youtube searches for help with the specific tasks that you are unfamiliar with. You will likely find more better tutorials with less time wasted on setup/fluff/intro as your searches lead you to new, more specialized sources for information. In other words... Get GRANULAR, my dude!

Have you read their refund policy? if it's 90 days, you're probably getting close to the cutoff for a refund... If it's too late, emailing/chatting with an egghead Rep still couldn't hurt. Even if just for the valuable feedback about your experience.

DISCLAIMER: I'm no career-coach, so take this reply with a grain of salt.

just make projects and stay curious, keep a list of words you've never seen or libraries and frameworks and read all the README's look at all the dependencies and google anything and everything. STAY CURIOUS.

start with projects -> github.com/tuvtran/project-based-l...
