Special Notes
As with all types of application development, There are tons of up and down moments. There will be times where something your trying to accomplish will just work right from the start, while other things even the most trivial won't work at all.
The best tip that works for most people for those frustrating times is to just walk away for a few moments, and while you are away doing something else, the solution sometimes will just jump right out at you.
So just try to remember frustration just leads to more frustration, and that learning how to manage those frustration will do wonders for your productivity.
Good Luck, and Happy Coding!
