RE: Sometimes it's best to start new (Eng/Esp)

Don't worry too much about how your code looks like. As long as there aren't any security concerns, there aren't many upsides into trying to hard to get the code perfect from the get-go. Refactoring code or starting features from scratch is normal, so don't get too attached to the code you've written. If you're coding with AI assistants, make sure you understand the code, otherwise it gets difficult to fix bugs and you might find yourself in a loop of "I'm sorry, you're right..." while the AI keeps on destroying the code.
Anyway, great to see you're building something! Keep it up.

This time around I'm going way slower for that precise reason. I am using an assistant, and it destroyed a lot of work. IT went full on "let me rewrite everything" when I just asked if there was a better way for X. Don't even remember.
Now, I'm literally going step by step, asking about best practices. It adds code, I ask A THOUSAND questions about it, git it, back it up once it works... and only then move on.
