Weird Specific Question About Pre-Planning

The rules state that we're allowed to plan and prepare ahead of time for the jam, and I wanted to check in about something because I don't know if it'd be allowed.

 I'm trying to relearn a specific programming concept (that being using Inky in Unity) and following some tutorials for it. I'm not working on the project I plan to make for the jam, but I realize some of the scripts I'm making would be very similar to what I'd be making during the jam. I'm not planning to reuse old scripts, but I'm worried that this cuts it a bit too close to working ahead of time, if that makes sense. Would it be fine to keep working on this "practice project" so long as I don't directly duplicate my code or should I hold off to be safe?

Apologies if this is convoluted, I just want to make sure I'm following the rules right!

I think this is perfectly fine!
