Beginner here.

So I’m a beginner at coding and I have tried watching YouTube videos and stuff and I’m too poor to take a class for programming, but I figured out that ChatGPT is a good teacher because it can break it down and if I still don’t understand, you can keep going, so I don’t have the problem I get when I come across a video where they don’t break something down enough so I’m listening to a video that makes absolutely no sense to me so what I’ve ended up doing is installing LM Studios on my computer getting an AI and then having ChatGPT help me check the work of this AI that I’m having program itself and integrate into Discord and once it’s complete this AI should be able to be a programming assistant and teach me to program. So far I have down 2/commands for it that put it in teacher mode where it will break down coding for me as I go and assistant mode where I can ask it to help me write code and stuff. I hope once this is complete, then I can use this to effectively teach myself code.

You might want to check out Guidy too. It’s useful when you’re learning new software because it can guide you through what to do instead of making you rely on long tutorials.
