freeCodeCamp's free self-paced web development curriculum, covering front-end and back-end fundamentals through structured, project-based lessons. It is one of the free platforms commenters point to for structured learning.

Commenters call it a free, well-structured starting point for web development, and often pair it with The Odin Project.

    This. The Odin Project is an excellent resource for learning full stack development for free. I would also recommend doing the web development course on freeCodeCamp alongside it.

  2. RecommendsRDathletics1987r/learnprogramming2022in “how many hours a day? rookie”▲ 1

    I would suggest utilizing some of the free platforms available that will structure and block your learning. I really like www.freecodecamp.org for Web Development and analytics etc. There is also some IT security courses on there as well. But I think the formatting and structuring that the free…

  3. Recommendsbhldevr/webdev2020in “can you learn the basics in 3 months?”▲ 3

    Getting a job is a skill. You could have or think you have the technical skills to get a job but not have the job searching skills. Different jobs would have different requirements including technical requirements. You're better of not putting yourself under a time limit and treating it completely…

  4. Recommendsnekdev_r/learnprogramming2019in “Udemy worth it?”▲ 1

    There are many useful courses in udemy, for example you can check out Traversy Media or Academind. You can use FCC to get started with web development and then use udemy courses to learn in depth

  5. RecommendsVicky_Groverr/learnprogramming2018in “Need a c++ refresher”▲ 2

    yes, i would also suggest javatpoint and tutorialspoint, but freecodecamp is good only their web development course.

  6. RecommendsChamimnyar/webdev2017in “Microsoft WebDevelopment Program”

    I don't think the Microsoft course is going to give the the best bang for your buck at $99 per module. As alternatives, FreeCodeCamp and The Odin Project are excellent free courses. They go into front-end and back-end web development, but I find there's not a lot of time spent in learning design…

  7. Recommendstoshstyler/learnprogramming2017in “Graduated from a tech school 9 years ago, never had a job in I.T where to start learning again?”

    You can go with: Udacity (different paths also there are nanodegrees that cost a lot but if you take the class individually they are free) Udemy (don't buy a course that is more than 10$) FreeCodeCamp (web development) TheOdinProject (web development) Coursera Edx

  8. Mentionsanh86r/webdev2021in “Are bootcamps really that bad of an idea or have I gotten only the negative views on it?”▲ 1

    They're definitely expensive but I think it depends on the person. Some people need the external motivation of showing up for someone else (instructor is expecting them, other students in a group project are relying on them, etc.). If you think there's no way you could ever motivate yourself on…

  9. Mentionsyy910616r/webdev2017in “Disabled to Employed, is it realistic to find work in within a year of self-study?”

    Hi there, I don't have the answer to everything you're asking. But, I think it's the line ' I didn't want to live like this if this is what living was' that really struck me and I want to chime in with a little bit of my own experience. Is it possible to get employed with zero to no relevant work…
