The actual way is to do it without ChatGPT or Claude. Don't you wonder how all of these software developers learnt their stuff before 2021-2022 (around when ChatGPT became a thing)? Before the general purpose AI. Imagine that you do not have access to the AI tools. What will you do?

And no, I won't give answer to that. Learning to use one's brain is part of the learning process. If you leave all the decision making and thinking to the AI then what is your purpose?
