Wow, You really left your comfort zone to nail this.

  • find a problem
  • Be passionate about the solution
  • Be willing to put in the work

I fill that inadequacy too, Like i have not learnt enough to build. But now I know better.

Thank you!

You're very welcome! Im so glad you found this helpful. Coding is quite daunting but if you have a real drive to help others (or even to just help yourself) then that drive will push you past many obstacles. There needs to be a mindset shift from "I want to learn coding to get a job" to "I want to learn coding to build useful apps and tools", its a much more productive philosophy in my personal experience.

Taking up task beyond your current experience level, can be really rewarding if one can put in the work.
