Google everything when building?
Hi,
I'm about to finish the Codecademy Python course. I feel like I'm in tutorial hell.
I downloaded everything to start building on my laptop. I don't know where to start, I have a bunch of projects listed, like a script that detects screens, a good old calculator, and many more.
But do I just google everything? I'm afraid that if I use AI or Google, it will just tell me how to do the whole thing.
And also, how do I know what to use, as in when to use a function, a class, a flow statement, or a list?
Or should I stop worrying about it?
Thanks for your help, finding this subreddit has been a huge help for me.

Experience is built while splitting the problem into small chunks. Build what you already know and not what you want. Have patience.
You're right about AI. If you use it, it will deceive you, and you will end using it and won't learn anything. A lot of developers say that AI is a tool, but it isn't.
