I'd suggest you try Copilot, specifically Copilot Chat. I was skeptical about it as ChatGPT feels like it had a lot of issues with code, but I tried it yesterday to build a small game (I do web APIs for my dayjob, so I have zero experience in that) and it honestly feels game changing,

It's like you have a mid-level developer sitting next to you, who has been using the libraries you are using for years.

It still hallucinates, and it still makes mistakes, but many questions I would have turned to Google to, it was able to answer right there and explain exactly why my code was not right. Also surprisingly good at figuring out logic issues, I always get confused if X and Y are up/down or left/right.
