That's an interesting workflow.

Do you find you have learnt about how your code works from having chatGPT generate it?

Why did you decide to download source code in a zip file rather than clone the repository?

Yes definitely learning from generated code.
As smth does not work and you start diving deeper.

I understand 0 at the begging and now already have some idea on structures and variables.

Zip just because I did not know:) now I am cloning already.

Also I use zip because I combined two projects open source in one. So it seemed more logical, I know no logic…

Really great stuff. I think your fearlessness is what stands out the most for me. Sometimes I find it hard to motivate new team members to just get in there and try stuff without questioning themselves so much. What makes you keep going? Magical secret confidence potion πŸ˜› ?

Hi Freddy ! Awesome question, it is some inner power in me:))

Regarding case your describe, I am thinking that leader of the team need to find what personally motivate team members. And gurantee that they can make mistakes, and there is no problem with it.

So for example, you want team member build cool micro-project for bring more traffic to the company main product/service. It is smth completely new for the team member. But if they attempt they should get special credit for it, and if it does not work time which were spend will not be smth unvaluable.

Just some thoughts:)) Obviously it will not work for everyone, as it is risk and new responsibility, and in some environments people tend to avoid these things.

Looks like you know what you are doing .

You can use any other text editor. I just use VsCode

After googling Valgrind I saw it is for analysis tools, I am not sure how it can be helpful for this specific project:) But I am sure for ther projects.
