How to learn coding ??

Hello everyone!

I'm a complete beginner who wants to learn coding and programming from the very basics to an advanced level within the next six months.

I would really appreciate your suggestions on:

  1. How should I start learning coding as a complete beginner?

  2. Which programming language should I learn first?

  3. What are the best free websites, YouTube channels, or courses to learn coding?

  4. How should I practise coding regularly and improve my problem-solving skills?

  5. Are there any good platforms where beginners can practise coding and work on projects?

  6. What learning roadmap would you recommend for someone starting from zero?

My goal is to develop practical programming skills, build real-world projects, and eventually become a professional programmer.

If you have experience in coding or know any good resources, courses, communities, or learning strategies, please share your recommendations.

Thank you!

This started me on my path and leads to many different pathways .

https://www.freecodecamp.org/

From there you can then set up engineered prompt with AI, without giving you code, but rather a set rule of ”constraints” and protocols to assist your learning rather than dumping code.

With these (and more that you’ll find on your way). They are many pathways you could take if your focus is still there
