if you use a search engine to search [language] documentation you will find the documentation for the language you are learning
instead of a language it can also be a library, framework, technology etc
Yeah, but what if i take bad one? Does somebody have a recommendation?
if you find the official one it’s unilikely it’s bad, even if some can be hard to understand
the recommendation is the official documentation for the language/library/framework/tecnology you want to learn more about
I’m at first step on web. trying to learn from start so i can after going to pyton java etc.
But i don’t know what to think on the documentation. or look at
it depends what you need to do
some documentations have tutorials in them, some you need to find the basics you need yourself
documentations often are not beginner friendly
Ok Developer, for that they mean like get a PDF of that language if available like Html PDF, J’s PDF from the browsers
the documentation is not necessarily in PDF, it’s better to consult the online version anyway, if there are errors it is updated, if you have a PDF it is not updated
Every language, library, package has some documentation. So when you search for the same, you come up with links to their documentation. Eg: JavaScript | MDN - for javascript. It is considered good to always refer to the docs when you are facing issues or want to learn something correctly. Tutorials help you practice stuff but good learning comes from reading documentation. All the best!
They mean official guides and reference materials for the language or tool you’re learning. For example, if you’re learning JavaScript, the MDN Web Docs are great.
