Update 1. After a few days of researching and testing, I finally decided to build this website with the help of generative AI. Please do check back from time to time for the progress. I will try to document as much as I can including the prompts that I have written to generate code.
There is no intention on my part to violate any copyright in mentioning Google and using its image.
My intention for this website is to demonstrate my learning as well as the creative power of Google Bard.
Update 2 as of 7:22pm. After setting up the website, I installed a Google tag for GA4 (Google Analytics 4) to see traffic data. So far, no data yet coming through the stream. It might take at least 24 hours...or the tag might not be installed properly.
