Try working for someone for free. See what live code looks like, dissect it and see if you can add to it.
If you have someone in your vicinity that can teach you coding, I really would suggest reaching out to them and getting some mentorship.
You have to learn how to do it on the fly.
The thing is you can go through these courses, and you will find that you think you are learning how to code but when you are working for a company you will find that there are a lot of little things that are not taught at any of these courses and web immersives.
Meetups with other coders where you can look at code samples and learn from, I think that's pretty important.
