Kennedy R. S. Guerra. Many Python hours, some Rust, JS, PHP, more.

Any amount of leniency allows vibed code, which is made with no reproducible steps, to gradually grow in size. As an open-source maintainer myself I recommend and practice a zero-tolerance policy.

As long as they are made with love and without genAI/LLMs. Wish everyone had the chance to make at least one game in their life before they die. A mini-game would suffice, as well, for the smallest experience can still hold a soul piece.
