Hi everyone! ๐
I am completely new to the world of web development. Two days ago, I didn't know what an index.html file was.
Instead of spending months learning syntax first, I decided to try something different: I used AI (Gemini) as my pair programmer.
My Workflow:
- I came up with the ideas (a Space Defender game + a personal blog).
- I asked the AI to generate the core code.
- The Hard Part: I had to learn how to deploy it, how to debug file path errors (I struggled with 404s for hours!), and how to modify the code to add features like a "Cheat Mode."

Hi everyone! ๐
I am completely new to the world of web development. Two days ago, I didn't know what an index.html file was.
Instead of spending months learning syntax first, I decided to try something different: I used AI (Gemini) as my pair programmer.
My Workflow:

- I asked the AI to generate the core code.
- The Hard Part: I had to learn how to deploy it, how to debug file path errors (I struggled with 404s for hours!), and how to modify the code to add features like a "Cheat Mode."
The Result:
I now have a live website hosted on Netlify. Even though I didn't write every line of syntax myself, I learned so much about structure, hosting, and debugging.
What I built:
- A Space Defender game (Press 'Z' for a Triple Shot bonus!)
- A blog with a working contact link
- A fully responsive design

Has anyone else started their journey using AI tools? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
