Why Most Developers Are Bad at Debugging — Let’s Fix It

Your current debugging method is slowing you down. Click to watch now and unlock the pro-level workflow that top developers use!

🚨 Struggling with debugging React or JavaScript?
Most developers don’t fail because they lack tools; they fail because they lack the right debugging mindset.

👉 In this video, you’ll learn the debugging mental model that professional developers use to understand bugs instead of guessing fixes.
👉 This is the foundation video for my React & JavaScript Debugging series — everything builds on this.

If you’ve ever said:
“This should work… but it doesn’t”
“React is behaving weird”
“JavaScript is unpredictable”

👉 This video is for you.

What You’ll Learn in This Video:
Why most developers are bad at debugging (and it’s not their fault)
The mental model you need before touching any code
How professional developers think about bugs
How to debug JavaScript using logic instead of trial-and-error
How to debug React by understanding assumptions, effects, and state

This video focuses on thinking, not tools, because tools only help after your thinking is clear.
