    I really don’t think you’ll get good results with Grok or any other LLM without programming experience. And if you did have programming experience, LLMs would just slow you down.

    Also, it’s code, not “codes”. “Code” is a continuous noun.

      I second that. I do know how to code, and I have to use it at my work in place of a search engine (annoying, but nothing I can do about it). I’ve caught it on multiple occasions blatantly making shit up, and I’m just searching for answers to basic questions I’ve forgotten, like, “Is "" a substring of apple?”

      So yeah, if you don’t know how to code, it’s not going to help you, and more likely, it’s going to introduce issues you won’t know how to debug later.

          Like contributed to the project? No.

          Dabbled with it? Yes. Great tool for introducing computer science basics like conditional logic and loops in a fun and visual way.

            I’m thinking of making the visuals for the game on scratch. Whether it be a rocket 🚀 launching game or a free the strait game😃😃😃

              Go for it! It will be a great learning experience, I’m sure. Scratch will help you see how all the code bits work together. Maybe it will inspire more complex projects in the future!
