Tips and Tricks for using Codex

Tomorrow marks 60 days of coding with codex, doing practically nothing else night and day. I had no experience or knowledge on how to code, what clean architecture was, but decades of being an end-user of a multitude of software types really helped me get through… I’ve been playing with the idea of putting a thread together for folks, that approaches the pitfalls someone with little experience in the field should be aware of before going in. Simple things that most of you fine folks would probably never consider because of your years of experience… Like how a simple ‘vibe’ prompt can lead to extensive refactoring down the road and how to use the plan feature as well as general tips to consider when prompting that I’ve picked up while in the trench. In my mind it’s not so much a ‘tips and tricks’ thread, but something along the lines of - ‘never coded before? - codex makes it easy - here’s what to look out for on your first projects’. Let me know if you would like me to spend time fleshing that out.
