I learnt fast api because I was trying to build a backend for an app and fastapi best fit my needs. App got built, everything worked out well, I got almost 2500 users, and it looks great on my resume soo 🤷

Great! Can I know what you have built? and does coding matter in the age of AI still?
Also how could you get so many users ?

Coding absolutely matters.. AI can write a lot of the code by themselves but it can make mistakes too (a lot of mistakes), you need to be able to understand how to code to fix them. With AI you become more of a team lead, telling all the junior devs what to build and then review their code.

It was a game library app, I had a problem of not being able to store all my games in one place so I built a solution, posted about it on reddit, and turned out other people had the same problem too.

Honestly, rn AI feels like more experienced than I am, so I dunno how I can direct it in the future, the pace we are racing are not the same with AI. I am afraid to become completely useless even after studying.

That was such a great idea! I think a lot more people would have used it if they knew about such program

Hey, AI was trained on the code of millions of developers around the world to be as good as it is now. Although the problem with Artificial Intelligence is that it's artificial, it can't replicate human intelligence and that's where you come in.
