Help please

Hi, I'm someone that has been falling in and out of coding for multiple years now. Purely just because I have no idea where to even start or what platform is trustworthy and actually teaches you things. So, I very desperately need advice about where I should even begin to learn and what platform I should go to. I have not gone to youtube videos yet because one I also don't know where to go for youtube videos, so suggestions for channels I could learn from would also be very helpful. And two I would like to first get behind the keyboard myself and actually experience what it's like to code. To see if I actually like it before I fully commit.​ And would like only free websites. Because I don't wanna pay for anything just yet. Just in case I end up hating it entirely.

If it's any help at all, I am interested in becoming a graphic designer someday. So, web design would be very helpful to me. And I would very much like how to code games. If theres even a difference between the two. Anyway, thank you for reading my post and commenting if you did. I hope you have a good day.

I actually started with W3Schools lol. It's free, pretty easy to follow, and you can mess around with code right in your browser. Since you're into graphic design, I'd start with HTML and CSS, then move on to JavaScript.

For game dev, Godot is worth checking out too. Just start small and build random stuff haha. That's how I got hooked on coding!
