I am completely new to the world of web development. Two days ago, I didn't know what an index.html file was. Instead of spending months learning syntax first, I decided to try something different: I used AI (Gemini) as my pair programmer.
đ¤ My Workflow
1. I came up with the ideas (a Space Defender game + a personal blog).
2. I asked the AI to generate the core code.
3. The Hard Part: I had to learn how to deploy it, how to debug file path errors (I struggled with 404s for hours!), and how to modify the code to add features like a "Cheat Mode."
đšī¸ The Result
I now have a live website hosted on Netlify. Even though I didn't write every line of syntax myself, I learned so much about structure, hosting, and debugging.
The game features a player ship, moving enemies, and a score counter. The hardest part was getting the collision detection right, but after a few tries with the AI, we got it working smooth.
