i’ve started coding in high school, but mine’s a long and complicated story.

My advice for you is: do the freecodecamp path + read the documentation and you can do it.
if you want more docs then : Mozilla web dev path , Google web fundamentals

Perfect! A few of the sites that I have been on did not offer much interactive help. Most only consisted of just reading and reading with no ways to implement what was read. So this has helped me a lot. I will definitely look into those in the morning. Thank you

i have done a lot of wrong steps as a self-taught dev, but from my experience i advice you to do the freecodecamp learning path https://learn.freecodecamp.org/ + read the documentation:

  • Responsive Web Design Certification (300 hours)

  • Javascript Algorithms And Data Structures Certification (300 hours)

  • Front End Libraries Certification (300 hours)

  • Data Visualization Certification (300 hours)

  • Apis And Microservices Certification (300 hours)

  • Information Security And Quality Assurance Certification (300 hours)

  • Coding Interview Prep (Thousands of hours of challenges)

  • for Frontend dev: It depends on how long it takes you to learn :
    (in average: 7-8 months)

    • Responsive Web Design Certification (300 hours)

    • Javascript Algorithms And Data Structures Certification (300 hours)

    • Front End Libraries Certification (300 hours)

    • += some CS

  • for fullstack dev: see the list in my previous post.
    • it’s a lot more information to learn
    • it’s not enough to learn, you need to practice too

MEAN stack is good, I’ve started learning Angular recently and i must say it’s a bit more complicated than React.
MERN stack will get the job done too as good as the MEAN stack.
