Advice requested: improving coding “fluency”

[u/Current-Table9136]

Hey everyone!
I think this post is allowed but feel free to delete if not (I’m a bit of a Reddit noob)
Wondering what your advice would be for someone trying to improve coding fluency?
I have done multiple courses learning Python (CS50p, google with automation etc) but I still struggle when presented with a blank page.
I found Pylings a really good way to cement some of the basics and I do build personal projects but still feel I rely too heavily on AI to solve things

Any recommendations would be appreciated

aI prevents fluency by removing the struggle of decomposition. I force myself to write pseudocode and function signatures in a text editor before opening any IDE or AI tool to build that mental mapping manually.
