Hello,

I’m newer to the idea of learning to write code. I really would like to see if anyone has read any great books that would help a beginner?

Thank you

You can’t go wrong with a bit of john ducket. He has two books that I’ve read. HTML & CSS, and JavaScript and jQuery. Both aimed at beginners new to code.

For afters I can recommend Ben frains responsive web development with HTML5 and CSS3.

If your after free books, have a look in one of p1xts tracks, although I highly doubt you’ve missed those posts!
