How to work part-time with unfamiliar technologies?
Offered a job with good hourly pay. But I've never worked part-time before. And the work there will be different. So, I know some languages and technologies very well and I can safely code without interruption - there are no questions here. But occasionally I come across unfamiliar languages and libraries that I know only in passing, in which I navigate with the help of Google. How do you calculate hours worked in this case?

everything is simple. Spend 1-2 hours every day on this new technology. It is also your job to learn and use. They also have to pay you for this. After all, a programmer is a person who is always in training.
IMHO this is not an hourly job. Well, in fact, put yourself in the place of the customer, it’s okay to pay if a person as a whole knows everything and sometimes peeps at the dock there, but it’s another matter if he studies technology on an hourly basis with the risk of messing up later. It's easier to hire a person who has already worked with this technology before and knows what and how.
Yes, any development is a constant work with documentation. If you give the result, then there are no problems with reading the docks during operation. The brain is not for storing data, but for creativity.
Count everything in full. Well, of course, if the employer has not been misled in advance about your skills and is aware that you do not have the necessary skills in these technologies. Everything that is needed for work is studied during working hours and taken into account accordingly.
And then there are such inventors who hear about some kind of "new" technology and immediately pull it into the project. If, in this situation, you study everything and do not take this time into account, then there will be only a dozen working hours per week.
