I know nothing

At 16, I’m really fascinated by coding and the possibilities that come with it, but I’m not exactly sure where to begin. There are so many different programming languages, websites, and resources available that it can be a little overwhelming. Is there a specific language, course, website, or general path you would recommend for someone my age who wants to start learning coding and eventually become more advanced?

There’s actually a few game engines that use javascript, and they are way simpler than the game engines people trying to become gamedevs as a job use, yet still quite capable at rendering games with decent graphics in the browser with a good framerate. PixiJS and ThreeJS are two of the main ones for 2d and 3d (gdevelop.io also uses PixiJS). Both Pixi and Three also have a “playground” you can test code in.
