Thanks, it makes me feel relieved to hear I'm not the only one finding it a little overwhelming! Previously, I had been using chatgpt and the like where I would be hunting for the answer to a particularly esoteric programming question. I've had a fair amount of success with that, though occasionally I would catch it in the act of contradicting itself, so I've learned you have to follow up on it a bit.
