That’s a great question and I actually do both. Going into a project without any prior knowledge it’s risky because you spend more time being stuck and frustrated than if you did some research first. This happened to me when I tried to get weather data from the OpenWeatherMap api, use axios, use vue and geolocation. I spent a good 3 days struggling with the results that I was getting because I did the bare minimum research.
On the upside I probably did learn way more struggling than getting a sure answer.
Now if you need to deliver something quickly it’s best to work with the tools you know to avoid wasting time trying figure out how to work with something - which usually could be fixed by a bit of research.
I guess the best would be a combination of both sides, use something new with something you know so you see progress and still struggle enough that you will learn something 😃
