Hey everyone! I'm looking to create a couple of apps for me and my friends, but I'm a bit overwhelmed by the complexity of them. I've been doing some research and I'm wondering if I should learn programming (like both front and back end, or just back end) to understand how to use AI tools effectively. I lack any solid programming knowledge, aside from a bit about Python. Do you think learning to code would help me build functional apps in about a year, or should I just rely on AI tools and learn on the fly?

AI can simplify the early stages of app development, allowing you to create a basic version of your app. However, when it comes to making updates or fixing bugs, you can hit a wall. The more you understand about programming, the easier it will be to communicate with the AI and troubleshoot issues. Start by sketching out your app's concept on paper; a simple README file detailing what you want could really help you clarify your goals. It’s essential to break down the project into manageable parts and maybe even get feedback from knowledgeable friends or other AI tools.
Thanks for the advice! I’ll definitely start with a detailed plan.
