Some advice here as a self taught web developer noob. This has been my journey in a nutshell so I hope it is helpful. 1. HTML / CSS (1-2 Months) as already mentioned here, the Responsive Web Design course on the https://www.freecodecamp.org/ is really good. https://netninja.dev/ also has some really good free content on youtube. Don't rush this step. Make some cool static websites and share with your friends. Learn git and become a Github Pro member so you can serve private repo's on the web for free (via github pages). 2. Javascript (3-6 Months) I highly recommend "Javascript & Jquery" by Jon Duckett. In the web development world it is by no means the latest book but I do believe learning how javascript was used 10 years ago relevant to how javascript became what it is today. I'd be happy to give you my copy! Spend the time learning javascript, make something cool and share it with your friends. Get to a stage where you can think about how you could make something in javascript. If you're dreaming in Javascript then you've taken this step too far. 3. Backend (Eternity)…
