What are the differences between using dowel joints and pocket hole joints in woodworking projects?

Dowel joints involve inserting wooden dowels into pre-drilled holes to connect pieces of wood, providing strong and durable connections. Pocket hole joints involve drilling angled holes and using screws to join pieces together, offering quick and easy assembly. Dowel joints are more traditional and provide a cleaner look, while pocket hole joints are faster and more convenient for beginners.
