Honestly, don’t think about learning code. Just picture in your mind and have free LLMs help you build it. While the LLM helps provide you code, ask ot to explain elements and why it wrote this ro that. Don’t just blindly say “didn’t work, give me something else to copy/paste.” Learn alongside the models.

What are you trying to build?

I would suggest doing it the other way around, actually. Ask the LLMs and the Internet as many questions as you want, but write the code by hand. That will cement the concepts better.

I use LLMs to accelerate what I already intended and to learn new languages.

Exactly. It takes a clear intention, first, which requires a basic understanding of programming techniques. Learning how to apply techniques in this or that language is where LLMs comes in handy.
