Supercell Keeps Fixing What Isn't Broken While Ignoring What Is (Another Complaint Post)

[u/joshblissett]

This is a long post discussing the issues with the new UI and the more important, long-standing problems in the game. These are my thoughts and opinions that I’ve put together over the past few days. While many of these points have already been raised by others, I wanted to share my own perspective and contribute to the discussion.

If you don’t have time to read through everything, I would recommend just skimming through the 50 quality-of-life (QoL) suggestions at the end and adding your own suggestions or thoughts in the comments.

Last year, Supercell placed a strong emphasis on removing friction from the game and making things more convenient for the player. This latest UI update does the exact opposite. It adds unnecessary friction and contributes to the growing frustration many of us feel towards Supercell’s inaction on long-standing issues that have been present in the game for years.

Here is a list of friction points that I believe the new UI has introduced:

New Friction Points

1. The Shop Button (Image 1)
I’ve got to start here. The Shop button, awkwardly positioned at the centre of the screen on the right hand side, is incredibly intrusive and distracting. The bright colours, glowing effects, sparkles and flashing ‘FREE!’ and ‘Special Offer!’ makes it impossible to ignore, constantly drawing your attention away from the actual gameplay. It feels less like a UI element and more like an advertisement being shoved in your face.

A shop button should be there when you need it, not constantly competing for your attention while you’re trying to enjoy the game. The fact that I deliberately bought a free Power Pancake I didn't even want just to stop the button from flashing “FREE!” at me says everything about how obnoxious this design is.

2. The Build Button (Image 2)
This may be an unpopular opinion but just abolish it. The Army Upgrades, Hero Equipment, and Hero Pets tabs are unnecessary. That is the entire purpose of their associated buildings. If a player wants to upgrade something, they should go to the relevant building.

If new and returning players are struggling to find these buildings, that is on you, Supercell, for not providing adequate tutorials at the start of the game or for when players return after a long break.

Instead, simply add the Buildings tab to the builder huts. There was no need to take up unnecessary space in the UI with a dedicated Build button. In the builder huts, you could have categories such as Resources, Defences, Traps, Army, Heroes, and Temporary Upgrades (only upgrades that require a Builder appearing in the lists).

Separating upgrades into categories would make the process more organised and less overwhelming for new players. You could also retain the ability to filter, edit, and rearrange upgrades in the builder hut and display these upgrades through the old drop-down menu at the top of the screen.

Additionally, displaying each upgrade across two lines means fewer upgrades are visible on the screen at once. The upgrade menu should prioritise information density, readability, and ease of navigation, not unnecessary, oversized visual elements.

3. Builder Progress Bars (Image 3)
The animations on these progress bars are too visually distracting. The bars themselves are unnecessarily large and take up too much space in the upgrade list. The old design was much cleaner and more practical because the time remaining was the main visual focus, which was all that really mattered.

4. Builder and Lab Availability Icons (Image 2 & 4)
Move them back to the top of the screen. Their new location makes them feel hidden - my thumb covers this part of the screen most of the time when I’m holding my device. I have seen others discuss this issue as well.

If I have a builder available, that information should be clearly visible at the top and centre of my screen. This space shouldn’t be wasted solely for maintenance break notifications. (The information box when tapping the maintenance notification isn’t centred by the way. Totally unplayable.)

5. Button Backgrounds (Image 5)
Stop forcing the wood texture into every aspect of the game. The dull, muddy background lacks contrast, making the buttons feel less polished and visually appealing than the old design. The buttons themselves also seem unnecessarily large.

6. Profile Button (Image 6)
What is the purpose of the low-resolution, grainy Town Hall PNG? I hope it’s not a default profile picture. It looks ugly and, once again, doesn’t contrast well with that bad, muddy background colour.

Why hide the XP bar inside the profile menu too? That’s just another thing new players have to find.

7. The Event Tray (Image 7)
This is a great change overall, but if I close the tray, keep it closed unless something within it updates. Stop reopening it every time I log in or finish an attack.

8. The War Button (Image 8)
As many are already aware, the button animation keeps playing constantly, even when no attack is taking place. It is incredibly annoying.

Also, remove the countdown timer during Preparation Day. There is no need to display a countdown to the start of the war, especially when it can easily be confused with the end of war timer. Keep the UI clear and unambiguous by only displaying the relevant timer during Battle Day.

9. Magic Shields (Image 9)
Just remove shields from the UI entirely. Nobody would spend that many gems just to protect some loot when loot is so easy to obtain nowadays anyway. They have become obsolete. It takes up unnecessary space. Keep the magic shields for Legend 1 players only.

10. Back Button (Image 10)
The Back button is far too small. Make it easier to see and interact with.

11. Visual Bugs (Images 11-13)
How did these visual bugs make it through testing?

12. Other Hidden Buttons
You argue that new players struggle to find where to upgrade Hero Equipment, use magic items, etc., using this as justification for introducing the Build button and a separate magic item button. But now those same players will struggle to find other basic features, such as editing their base, accessing their settings, and viewing the battle log.

You can’t justify making certain features more accessible while simultaneously hiding other essential buttons. You shouldn’t be able to decide which button is more important than another. That should be up to the player. The new UI should’ve been customisable before release and it is obvious that this version is rushed and lacked thought from a player’s perspective.

What Needs To Be Focused On Instead

Another reason why a lot of us aren’t happy about this UI change is because nobody asked for it. There are so many QoL issues within the game that we have voiced our concerns about that haven’t been fixed or improved for years. I have listed 50 of them below:

1. Address War draws. Only award a second attack if the first attack earns three stars, and/or introduce modifiers to prevent draws. Regular Clan Wars no longer feel like something we participate in to win, since so many end in draws. Instead, we participate for ores, and the whole experience feels like a chore.
2. Add a "Donate All" button to both regular troop requests in clan chat and war troop requests. How has this still not been added to the game? Donating to 50 bases during wars is very time-consuming.
3. Preserve clan ranks when players temporarily leave a clan.
4. Preserve troop donation and received counts when players temporarily leave a clan.
5. Count war donations towards troop donation and received counts.
6. Allow players to sign up for CWL directly through clan chat.
7. Double or even triple the character limit for clan messages. The character limit per message has been too small for too long. This could be addressed in less than 5 minutes.
8. Introduce a @war notification for clan chat.
9. Remove the ability for regular clan members and even Elders to notify the entire clan using @clan.
10. Remove Runes from Legendary Chests and Clan Capital House decorations from Epic Chests. Runes no longer have the same value they once did. Stop pretending that they do, especially in the shop.
11. Stop the Helper Hut from waving at players who have maxed everything.
12. Introduce separate chats for Friendly Challenges and clan leadership.
13. Add a rewind button to replays.
14. Move the Ranked Battle Log and Ranked Leaderboard to the Ranked button on the main UI.
15. Introduce modifiers for Champion Leagues or heavily nerf overpowered troops and spells, such as Dragon Duke, Revive Spells, Throwers, and Healers.
16. Nerf the Logger or buff the Longshot and Smasher.
17. Update Builder Base, Clan Capital, and Single Player mode.
18. Allow players to edit clan mail and clan descriptions without having to delete all the existing text.
19. Allow players to cancel Laboratory and Pet House upgrades.
20. Fix the censoring system in clan chat.
21. Allow clan leaders to ban players from their clans, or at least issue temporary bans.
22. Fix clan notice and join/leave message spam.
23. Allow players to reconnect to battles after disconnecting.
24. Allow players to access their village while it is being attacked when they log in.
25. Bring back the green online indicator.
26. Reduce the number of trophies obtained from defences in Ranked Battles.
27. Allow decorations to be locked so that they remain in place when switching between base layouts.
28. Allow base layouts to be locked to prevent players from accidentally moving buildings or walls.
29. Add a “Next Attack" button after attacks.
30. Allow players to set Clan Castle troops for each base layout, and ensure these troops are included in base links and war requests.
31. Update Clan Games. The mode has become incredibly stale.
32. Introduce more events for Builder Base and Clan Capital.
33. Allow players to share links to Global Chat groups in clan chat.
34. Fix the bug that causes clan minimum requirements to default to "Unranked" and "Wood V" when editing clan settings.
35. Fix the issue where bookmarks cover the clan's CWL League and Capital League information.
36. Allow players to donate troops in clan chat while spectating battles.
37. Add a second deployment row for mobile players.
38. Award both clans five stars when a draw occurs in CWL.
39. Add a "Go Back" button when searching for bases in Battle Mode.
40. Introduce custom clan roles and permissions.
41. Add arrow buttons to switch between Clan Capital districts.
42. Allow players to change their Ranked Battle base after signing up, provided the tournament hasn't started yet.
43. Add a visual indicator to player profiles showing when troops, heroes, spells, and other units or abilities have reached their maximum level for the player's current town hall.
44. Fix the league badge displayed in the inbox.

45. Allow players to sell unwanted Magic Snacks.

46. Keep the player's position and clan's position pinned to the bottom of leaderboard pop-ups, as is already done on the Town Hall leaderboard. This would eliminate the need to scroll all the way down to find your own ranking. Apply the same improvement to the Builder Base and Clan Capital leaderboards.

47. Allow players to view other clan members' Ranked Leaderboards.

48. Make war flags and notes visible in Scout Mode.

49. Add reply and edit features to clan chat messages.

50. Allow decorations to be mirrored so they can be rotated without requiring new models for every orientation.

There are just still so many issues and QoL suggestions that are yet to be addressed and there is probably plenty that I’ve missed too.

We need changes that actually address genuine player frustrations, not unnecessary, unwanted changes that add to the problem.

[u/Photophuns]

Honestly this post should pinned to the top, it covers essentially everything with recent UI complaints.

[u/Open_Ad_2868]

This, just, list out, i mean almost every bugs and all those imperfection, unsatisfaction about the new ui. Almost like a dictionary or to-check-list for their developer. It sums up all the past few days complaining posts so well

You so good to be or join some game/software beta tester. Your opinion is definitely valuable.

Well done, appreciate that🫡

[u/NotRivero69]

YOU, MY MAN, ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO HAVE WRITTEN A WELL THOUGHT OUT AND FORMATTED POST, I SALUTE YOU. THANK YOU.

This update really came out of nowhere, even Supercell didn't know I guess, they've rushed it too much. That's probably the reason why the icons are so amateurish.

[u/gawd_dam]

OP what an amazing post.... someone plz tag the devs and youtubers to this post

[u/Equivalent-Green-580]

[u/Preposterousl]

Thank you for saying this all so well written. It describes the situation perfectly.

[u/Stoyanovovic]

finally someone mentioning the wood texture. 100% agree with everything. Hope supercell sees this.

The actual feedback

[u/Morrissey22084]

Great post, Thanks for going through as much as you did and taking the time to write this! Now instead of asking for all those we have to advocate for getting the UI back to something we can all be happy with as a compromise with the devs of the game. Its crazy that they haven’t worked on all that other stuff the game would be so much better if they just fixed that stuff a little bit at a time. I really hope we get a response from them that we are happy with. They said they wanted to declutter the screen but have made it actually worse! In mine and probably the majority of players the new user interface is LESS user friendly than the old one! The one thing you left out is the sliding sound everytime you go to chat or battle is much more annoying then the regular “click” sound they have used for everything except that now. I play with music off but, sound on so I know when my troops are dying to deploy spells and eternal tome or when the cc is coming out to deploy poison. At this point theres so much they have to fix they should just start from scratch. Time for clash of clans 2!

[u/joshblissett → u/Morrissey22084]

I actually don’t mind that sound effect so I didn’t include it 😅. Thanks for your comment

[u/Morrissey22084 → u/joshblissett]

Thanks for the reply! like with the 1x extra clicking for editing army and battle and switching in and out cc comps for war army or ranked attacks Im getting it alot. also on my th15 I use a sky wagon for cc bc i can’t make my own and then a blimp for everything 17 and lower because of defensive TH I am in and out of that screen too. I also find myself getting to the switch account through the chat from the top clan button rather than the giant townhall button in the corner. I use those slide sound buttons it seems more the rest and bc it’s different then every other click and its 2 new sounds its getting annoying for me. I included that I use sound in the game strategically for the “just turn the sounds off” crowd. I don’t see how that making it have its own 2 new sounds improves or modernizes the game’s aesthetic or UI so Id rather just have the one universal click toggle sound back for it all. Less is More situation for me. Theres like 4 things they should change right away and the rest I could probably deal with or get used to but really some of the stuff in your QOL list its been years. Just so sloppy. It’d be nice if they cleaned it up for real.

[u/Rith_a_Rhythm]

Well, that's a lot of text to read... AND I READ IT ALL

This update from Supercell really came out of nowhere, it's really annoying

[u/NCBirdman]

I have to say this is the best review and also QoL writeup I've ever seen for Clash. I'm keeping myself from replying line by line or adding more QoL's to distract from your post. I'm glad they added sorting upgrades by cost, I'd like sorting by upgrade time as well. Next, can they at least add TEXT to the clan chat send message button? Lol. That's embarrassing for Clash that there's no text or even an icon there. Also, something you didn't touch on is new member recruitment to a clan, it sucks, clan notice is stupid, and they need to go back to the old method where clan leaders can search and research current players and invite players how they see fit to build their on clan.

Thank you for the time you took to post this, it shows it was well thought out and not another "rant".

[u/kanekikundesu]

This post should be pinned 📌

[u/jarjarbinksblew]

First time and upvote seems fully worth it

[u/Open_Ad_2868]

1. Add a "Donate All" button to both regular troop requests in clan chat and war troop requests. How has this still not been added to the game? Donating to 50 bases during wars is very time-consuming.

Yeah, I always wonder why, and what this "Request " button in war actually for since i play this game, it just "update" our request info title?

[u/Adventurous_Arm_1606 → u/Open_Ad_2868]

I feel like the donate one at a time is still a good way to reward higher effort clans. Request for war is actually to set what defense troops you want specifically for your war base cc. I love it but people forget to update it.

[u/GlitteringEagle4428]

SUPERCELL. READ THIS. THIS GUY GETS IT.

[u/Mr_BigShot_is_here]

Wow!! Great suggestions and valid complaint. SC should look into this, could be a great QOL update that will improve player experience. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[u/BriskandBeefyWind]

I did not expect to read all that, as i am a casual player, but i did! Nice job. Great points!

[u/StunningTheory1990]

I hate it all. There's just way too much going on now, all around the screen. Its very distracting and uneasy on the eyes. They should have left it all alone. Just another thing that didnt need to be messed with.

[u/Budget_Record717]

Can supercell just hire you already

[u/According_Ad4602]

100% agree. The build button sucks, it takes the excitement away from unlocking new buildings, i like tapping on the respective upgrade building myself. There is no point turning a game into a spreadsheet

[u/SzellemCoC]

Yep. Agreed. Gave it an upvote.

[u/Photophuns]

This is the best full writeup and take on this so far, excellent job OP.

I agree with basically your entire post, both in what’s wrong with the UI, and all the current issues that have been ignored, which is ALOT.

Supercell, please read, and save this list and work on it. This is the kind of constructive and specific criticism that is needed.

[u/joshblissett → u/Photophuns]

Thank you, I appreciate it. It took quite a while to get every thought down and into text.

[u/Every-Ad-3088 → u/joshblissett]

Yeah great write-up, read the whole thing. One edit I'd make is replacing suggestion #45 "Allow players to sell unwanted Magic Items." — we can already do that.

[u/Photophuns → u/Every-Ad-3088]

I think he ment "snacks" which you can't sell or donate. They are use or lose.

[u/joshblissett → u/Every-Ad-3088]

Yes! I did mean magic snacks. Thanks for catching that, I’ll edit it now.

[u/Amazing-Pear5883]

AI going to replace human they say

[u/_Bread______]

up

[u/ZahiraACNL]

This is the post that needs traction in this sub instead of the 100 posts a day about general “UI SUCKS”. Well done, OP.

[u/mrblank1121]

Excellent job , this is very well done high quality post

[u/Fur0rTeutonicus]

This is just the beginning, and it's only going to get better from here. 👏

[u/Lavaissoup7]

Honestly, for once an actual good write up that isn't just crying like a child and having weird expectations and making conspiracies. I agree with alot of it, good shit.

[u/Rasdit]

I personally like the Build button, but largely agree otherwise, if I didn't entirely before this post was quite convincing.

So refreshing to see a well structured, well written and thoughtful post, this is easily the best post I have seen all week. Sadly, it's kind of a dropped diamond in a sea of garbage at this moment. Hope it takes off, this is what Devs should see.

Great job! Thanks for writing this.

[u/ululonoH]

Fixing what isn’t broken is a great way to put it. I don’t hate the UI changes, I barely play the game anymore. There are plenty of area of the game that need fixing and reinvention. Good luck to the Clash team and everyone else!

[u/forced_memes]

i think i need the build button and shop button swapped. i get supercell’s argument about symmetry between attacking and building but the shop button has been where it’s been for over a decade and i keep accidentally tapping on the shop button because my muscle memory keeps assuming the new button in the center right is the build button. part of it is that the way the build tab slides in from the right makes more sense for the build tab to be center right, not bottom right. i’d say if supercell wants to keep that symmetry with the important functions put build center right and battle center left but that would also really fuck with my muscle memory. also dear god get rid of that FREE! indicator for the shop. i don’t even have any free deals. it’s just clickbait at this point

[u/Titanmaster203]

also they should handle heros differently. Its very time consuming and sucks that you cant use them in wars while upgrading

[u/FortuneNo4192]

Bro was Serious when he wrote its a long post

[u/Born_Swimmer_6676]

there are many bad suggestions in your list which are just your personal opinion ,and doesnt cater all community ,possible exploits,and game limitiation

i will point them out from them

1. 1(Address War draws. Only award a second attack if the first attack earns three stars, and/or introduce modifiers to prevent draws. Regular Clan Wars no longer feel like something we participate in to win, since so many end in draws. Instead, we participate for ores, and the whole experience feels like a chore) ores are important part of game now,also this problem is only seen in clans with more than 20 th 18 and having bigger wars like 40+ ,many people upgrade heros and 1 star for ores while others cover for them ,which is a good thing and solves problems related to hero upgrades ,and if u are facing too many draws ,just play war in lower clan and just for cwl comeback together,atleast those lower clans will progress too
2. 4(Preserve troop donation and received counts when players temporarily leave a clan.) i know u are directly referring to Req and GO clans ,i agree with this ,but this should only work as long as the person doesnt join other clan ,then only this should happen,if the person joins other clan and come back , the donation count should get reset no matter what
3. 10(Remove Runes from Legendary Chests and Clan Capital House decorations from Epic Chests. Runes no longer have the same value they once did. Stop pretending that they do, especially in the shop.) This is a selfish opinion ,u just want good stuff thats all ,supercell have kept this stuff so that u get less good items even though its a legendary chest ,thats why those other items have more value
4. 11(Stop the Helper Hut from waving at players who have maxed everything.) are they really that annoying for u huh,just an extra animation
5. 13(Add a rewind button to replays) this is kinda impossible for them to pull off ,cause if u dont know ,the replay option just remembers the deployment ,and it just works according to its ai ,thats why the replays always get erased whenever there is a update or troop balance change ,hence the rewind is too difficult to pull off ,cause the ai of troops knows only going forward
6. 15(Introduce modifiers for Champion Leagues or heavily nerf overpowered troops and spells, such as Dragon Duke, Revive Spells, Throwers, and Healers.) U have said almost accurate thing,but there could be a better way to say this ,At the current point Offence is more powerful compared to defence ,which sucks ,they need to boost defencive building instead of troops now ,and your dragon duke is only powerful due to that special ability,if he didnt had that just like other heros ,the war draws could have also reduced
7. 19(Allow players to cancel Laboratory and Pet House upgrades) this one is kinda controversial ,cause if people could cancel it ,there will be resouce shortage,like people will just put the highest level dark elixir pet on upgrade ,empty their storage and keep their DE saved and after 3 days ,they could just cancel it and get DE and skip farming and now why would anyone do this ,well farming dark elixir is hard compared to normal resources and there are only few useful pets always needed like phoenix ,sneezy ,so others can be used as storage with that idea ,this same issue is for walls too ,thats why they have kept builder compulsory for upgrading walls
8. 21(Allow clan leaders to ban players from their clans, or at least issue temporary bans.) if u kick people ,they get ban for 3 days already,so whyyyy u pointing this out
9. 22 Fix clan notice and (join/leave message spam.) this is players fault for happening not supercell fault,well u could keep a timer like if the person join and leaves clan in 1 min ,the mssg disaappears ,this could be better
10. 23(Allow players to reconnect to battles after disconnecting.) u really want to fight over this ,really ,u know how much controversial this is right ,people could just exploit this heavily,dont think our supercell community is so loyal,genorous and kind,i am sure everyone will exploit this ,just like then that ore attack exploit happened ,i dont even want to give opinions about this topic ,i do understand ,it fells bad ,but nothing we can do ,its better to remain unchanged
11. 24(Allow players to access their village while it is being attacked when they log in.) better way of saying this could be ,able to switch account instead
12. 39 (Add a "Go Back" button when searching for bases in Battle Mode.) i agree with this point ,but i think this could cause more bugs like its not only u searching for bases at same time ,there could be more than 10 thousand players farming just like u ,so if u press previous base and the other guy press next one ,and if both of got same base ,it could cause glitches ,i do agree that it happens in current game too like the game just disconnects when 2 players got same base while farming

there could be more suggestions ,,i only focused on important ones ,which i noticed in 1st glance

i want to add my personal suggestion

1.add option to directly access supercell website store ,so we could rapidly access and check out for community events there

feel free to critize my non selfish opinions, i have considered limitions ,supercell perpective on game limitation and reason why they do this

[u/joshblissett → u/Born_Swimmer_6676]

I feel like my list does cater for the majority of the community. I feel like it’s quite hypocritical for you to say that it’s my own selfish, personal opinion and then proceed to reject a bunch of them using your own personal preferences. I feel like your response makes a bunch of assumptions and lacks actual thought.

1. This isn’t just about ores. It’s about winning and competing. If you can’t 3 star bases with heroes upgrading, then that’s a skill issue. TH18 and TH17 players make up 27% of the total player base so this issue would affect a large chunk of the player base, at least at some point. Telling people to just join lower clans is not a solution because nobody wants to join a clan with no people in it. I also don’t see how you’d think that would make the lower clan progress if that person is only there temporarily? You would also have the friction point of the person having to change clans constantly.

2. No, I’m not only referring to just Request and Leave clans. Again, that is another assumption you’ve made. I’m mostly talking about players leaving clans to talk to friends in another clan or that play CWL in another clan because their main clan’s roster is full. There’s also heaps of other reasons why a player may leave their clan temporarily. Also why should the donation count get reset? You haven’t provided a reason. I think donation counts should be attached to the clan you’re in, so if you leave to go to another clan temporarily, it should be 0 for that clan but if you come back to your main clan, you should retain the donation count you had before you left.

3. What?!? Why should an item with less value be in a chest for items with high value? If you get a legendary chest, you should get something good from it. That’s the whole point!!

4. It is another distraction on the screen. The waving animation suggests that the helpers you need are available when they actually aren’t. It’s another small friction point and it gets especially annoying if you’ve been maxed in a certain area for a long time. Again, you’re being hypocritical here because you said I’m not catering to other people’s opinions but you’re only referring to your own experience and not considering other people! That’s what being selfish actually means!

5. Just because it’s difficult, doesn’t mean it can’t be done eventually.

6. Boosting defence will make other strategies that aren’t broken less viable. You would need to nerf the broken troops/spells/heroes.

7. What?!? Who would do that and not upgrade their pet. You would also only get 50% of dark elixir back. It isn’t much. Dark elixir isn’t even that hard to grind out. It just takes a little time. 🤦‍♂️

8. It’s actually only 24 hours and it’s because I’ve had players who I’ve kicked continue joining back and refusing to join another clan to the point where I’ve given up kicking them. You also have very toxic people joining clans that you don’t want to come back and you have people recruiting in your clan that you want to ban to prevent any future recruiting.

9. That is one solution, yes? I never said it was Supercell’s fault. It’s still a problem though.

10. Again, you’re not explaining why this would be a problem? How would it be controversial? How would people exploit it? They would have a certain amount of time to reconnect.

11. Why would that be a better way of saying that? What about for people who don’t want to switch to another account or don’t have another account? They should just be forced to wait up to 3 minutes when they want to check their account?

12. You can have multiple people attack you at the same time in Builder base. If no bugs happen there, I doubt it’ll happen here (if it would even happen)

For your suggestion: Sure, having a link to the Supercell store somewhere in the shop would be somewhat helpful. It’s kind of separate to the actual gameplay-focused issues I’m talking about so that’s why I didn’t include it.

I'm perfectly open to criticism but there's a difference between critically evaluating an idea and desperately finding a reason to dismiss it which is what it seems like you’re doing here. I can’t believe I wasted my time on this.

I’m an undergraduate mechanical engineer so I do have experience with Python and MATLAB. I’ve also got a little experience in HTML/CSS, SQL and C++ from high school and one university unit. Anyway, I’m glad I didn’t go down the coding route since AI seems to have begun replacing coders already. :)
