- stop using ChatGPT to learn. it's garbage as a learning resource. see #faq for a curated list of excellent resources to learn modern JS.
- as part of using modern JS, you should never use jQuery. yes, I'm aware DataTables can work without jQuery, but there's probably a better option available...
- learn JS first. then learn Vue/React/whatever-framework-you-want.
- using Google Sheets as your "database" is just going to make your life difficult in the end, but you do you!

Aware that JQuery is terrible. There are no free alternatives to DataTables that I've found though, and given this is 500~ line hobby project, I can live with it
Skimming through the JavaScript tutorials I already knew most of this, apparently it's mostly the jQuery I've seen that I've struggled with understanding
So where do I start looking to understand something like Ajax or Vue, which as I understand are both a type of XML(?) for making it so I can dynamically update an existing table based on the data from the backend changing?
