Regarding AI usage: In my professional life I use AI regularly as a coding assistant to rapidly prototype, and work in tech stacks I am not familiar with. AI tools have been adopted as the norm. That being said, throughout this website NO AI WILL BE USED. This is a hobby, "for fun" project and I feel any use of AI will take away from what I can potentially learn from actually doing the work to get good at web development. As I develop my tool kit on this journey I'll keep a running list of the resources that I use to learn.
