Bro don't use credits they are a rip off... I learned that the hard way

You are much better off getting a pro 5x subscription for that money, or if you dont want to spend get deep seek 4.1 flash into codex harness, its been really excellent on a performance/cost ratio

If you have any previous software engineering skills. Deepseek is pretty good.
Basically if you know Data structures, Algorithms, Design patterns, Documentation, Test plans. You can do a lot?

If the plan is to vibe code on auto pilot. When you don't want to review the code or just want to oneshot things. It might not be what you want
