    Also after your 4th proper project you won’t be as confused about “how to get started” anymore anyway.

    You have a language of choice, a gui framework, and a build system you are comfortable with in mind already just start making folders.

      Feels like there are some fine people here only working on new projects. Getting started could be, breaking down a 20 year old program, written in some wierd manner because the original developer use to do functional programming but was told to use java and oop. No comments, no tests, no normal patterns, no documentation.

        The argument was “AI helps when starting up new projects by making unit tests etc.”

        Also for not 20, but even building 10 year old libraries using AI is unhelpful. It just keeps hallucinating non-existent packages and functions.

        At this point just drive yourself crazy while promising to become goose farmer and commenting every single line in your own words like god intended for programmers to do.
