Let’s get some resources (websites, games, programs…) to help people that want to start learning how to program.
oh, I also have to mention codewars. That site was absolutely instrumental in giving me the confidence that maybe I could actually learn this shit. The first kata I did was as simple as “convert the boolean to a string,” but that was exactly what I needed! I also like how it’s less corporate than leetcode.

They offer courses supported by YouTube videos. They also offer certifications for subjects like JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures, Backend Development and APIs, and Machine Learning with Python.

Full-stack web development course. The end result should be a deployed website for your portfolio.
Lots of free courses on tons of subjects including conputer science and mathematics.
Recently I discovered Harvard’s CS50 series of classes.
- It’s a series of pre-recorded video classes
- Each class comes with a programming assignment
- You complete the programming assignment using an online Codespace they provide in VS Code (zero setup!)
- It’s all completely free
A really excellent way to learn programming in a class structure without actually going out to classes and having hard deadlines.
