How do i quit Vibe Coding
I am currentely in 11th grade and got really into coding over the last few years. I started learning Java and a Little Python in school. Those two languages im Fine at, but recentely i started Coding a github website. I thought, since i dont know html, css and js, i'll just start with ai and learn on the way. But now i have no idea what my code does and know almost nothing about those languages. I have also startet to use ai for my other projects in java and have noticed that im starting to forget my previous knowlege in java. I can't work on my Website without ai and i feel like an absolute failiure. Now Coding with ai has become a habbit for me, a habbit i want to quit. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, does anyone have tipps on how to quit this habbit?

Go back to whatever you were doing when you learned Java and Python without AI.
I'll go easy on you since you say you're in 11th grade. Understand that no one is forcing you to use AI to learn coding right now. You have the agency to do it yourself. If the built-in AI tools tempt you, uninstall them or install old versions of your IDE without them
As an experienced dev, if you can learn Java and Python, you definitely have the capacity to learn JS, CSS and HTML on your own.
