Hello everyone. I’m completely new to computer programming and so far so good. The first thing I did was find freecodecamp on YouTube and I’m almost finished watching the video “introduction to programming.” After I watch this video, what video should I watch next or what language should I start. Also I haven’t begun any exercises on this site yet. I’m kind of all over the place. Can someone point me in the right direction please? Thank you in advance!

Hi @kalynlewis1 !

Welcome to the forum!

If you are interested in learn web development then I would suggest starting with the FCC curriculum.  
It teaches the MERN(MongoDB, Express, React, Node) stack and python.
