Build a portfolio project people use, even a small tool for your family. Keep improving it as their needs change. It shows you can maintain a project and builds your product sense.
Write up your key decisions too, including where you went a different way from the AI.

A rule of thumb from our guide to escaping tutorial hell: spend about 20% of your time learning concepts and 80% building projects.
If you get stuck while building, that's a good thing. It shows a knowledge gap you can fill.

You're not falling behind.
It's easy to think everyone's speed-running learning with AI. We still see people get stuck where they always have: their first project.
The advice still holds: pick something small, build it by hand, and push yourself further with each build.
Write a README for every project, including why you made the choices you did. Why Flexbox here, why Grid there. Where you used AI and where you disagreed with it.
If you can't explain a choice in writing, you probably don't fully understand it yet.
Our advice for beginners using AI coding assistants: keep the chat, lose the autocomplete, avoid agents (for now).
Ask the assistant to explain things, then write the code yourself. If you can't explain something back, don't use it yet.

Even as AI writes more of the code, beginners still need hands-on time: writing code, fixing their own bugs, reading and reviewing code.
That's how you build the knowledge and the vocabulary to get a good result, whether you're writing the code yourself or directing an agent.
Applying for a couple of months with no replies is common right now, and plenty of the reasons are outside your control.
The part you can control is what you send. Before applying more, check your resume and your top three projects. More in our 2026 job search guide.
