Building little toy projects like some of these is one of my favorite ways to learn and play. Sometimes the value isn't in the initial finished product but in the concepts it exposed and knowledge or inspiration gained from that.

I guess if what you really want is only the finished product and nothing else, churning it out as quickly as possible with AI and not caring about the implementation could work for you. But it would take the fun out of it for me.

Sadly my career may eventually head in that direction. At least I'll always have a hobby to enjoy.

Same here! That's why I'm having so much fun building nearly 100 of them in a year.

The difference here is that I didn't have to type out all of the code by hand.
