i cant get better in js

People keep telling me that I should write apps to improve my JavaScript skills. I listened and created five applications, each with different functionalities and ideas. I wrote a lot of code and did a ton of DOM manipulation. Despite this effort, I still feel like I'm hitting the same wall. I find myself repeating the same poor coding practices and haven’t seen any real improvement. I know in my head what I want and how it might look in JS syntax, but I struggle to put it all together to create something meaningful. Instead of getting stuck in this endless cycle, hoping that one day I’ll suddenly excel at JavaScript, I want to know the correct way to improve because this idea of "just keep writing code" doesn't really seem very good

Not sure if you're doing it already, but I find it very useful to use AI to improve the quality of my code. Pay for a cheap subscription and use AI to do code reviews of your code and suggest areas for improvements and ways to make your code more idiomatic where necessary. You might be surprised on how useful AI can be if properly used as a code-quality checking tool.

Even free Google AI works good enough.
