I needed a project to really kick the wheels of Gen AI as a tool for executing projects. I compounded this choice, by asking a more experienced dev what tools he would learn if he got into web dev today. He suggested Astro and vercel.
Chat GPT ended up helping far less than promised. Also if you want to build a ship in a desert, its not going to ask why, its going to tell you how. Apparently doing design, code, content and art from scratch isnt the optimal way to go. Who knew?
I suspect its significantly easier to pick up if you are working on web dev every day. The point of jumping through additional hoops didn't make sense until it finally clicked.
Once you wrap your head around it, your components start to just work. Ideally like lego. Does make maintenance and management easier.
Either that, Or I am simply sufferring from stockholm syndrome. I don't know.
I did wish there were more templates to learn from.
