   Freecodecamp has been by far my favourite course. I have some paid courses on Udemy but they weren’t beginner friendly. Freecodecamp is amazing. Highly recommend - and it’s free.

   Do you know how to use python for OOP projects ? If know you might try leaning OOP with python. You should be building projects if you already know the basics. Try OOP projects or the freecodecamp course (skip the basic and go ahead).
