Then I write out anything that I know I'm going to find difficult/don't know how to do/will need to look up in bullet points. Then, I'll indent into these bullet points and include a bunch of links for resources about the thing I need to do. This helps keep my attention focused on getting the app done, rather than task switching between coding, research and troubleshooting. I've found it very helpful for my ADHD. Anyway...
