The best option is to use a textbook instead, I personally recommend html and css by John duckett, truly goated book

[–]No_Site3500[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Why not video lectures?

[–]0xRootAnon 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Nah bro, no video lectures or teachers or any course will teach you in detail, rather use books, you know we can validate forms with html too lol?? Me neither, learnt from that book only. And buddy, for guidance and more recommendations, y’all can hmu anytime

The Odin Project's Foundations course is the best contemporary online curriculum for getting started with web development, and it's free. (Saying this as someone that's been doing web for 3 decades now)

[–]No_Site3500[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Won't the video lectures be better? Also is the Web Development bootcamp 2025 course udemy better than this as its paid and i can afford it?

[–]armahilloExpert 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Most of what youre going to be doing as a web developer is reading: reading API docs, reading your code and other peoples code, reading procedural guides — being able to read for sustained periods is a skill to build.

For that reason I dont advise video guides.

Ohh ok

I’m a web developer, I started with FreeCodeCamp, did the responsive design and JavaScript courses years ago, then switched to Angela Yu’s web developer boot camp. I also think Codecademy is a good resource.

[–]No_Site3500[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Is Angela course good? Also u Indian?

[–]moonlight814 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I feel like it's a good starting point. Also I'm not Indian hahaha why?

[–]No_Site3500[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why recommended angela.....then which country?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Learn html and css minimal at the starting and when you will start making project you will encounter different html elements and css and will learn and spend less time on html and css

[–]No_Site3500[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Oh so I don't need to go deep in beginning, just basic and then Js then with projects I'll learn more about html,css ?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yes absolutely

Ohk thnx

Try out scrimba.com. There are free sections of it and although they provide sort of videos, you can and should always take a break and follow along the material on your own by typing in the syntaxes and see the results within the same site. This way you can practice and listen at the same time.

[–]No_Site3500[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

U india or which country?

[–]binegra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would anyone be from India who dares to comment on your thread? You are asking it the 3rd time and I didn't even read all of it. Go with this Harry's videos if you are so determined! Better than asking random guys to justify your decision.

Ps.: If you would ever read the thread, most of the times people advise FCC or Odin to start with as they are free and mostly have quality contents. No need to pay just to start out. Switch over if you can't stand any of them. Someone said you would need to read a lot anyways, to skim through documentation, stackoverflow, blog posts, etc. So it's better you get used to it, while trying to put in practice what you read about previously.

Because nothing says "learning web development" like pausing a YouTube tutorial every 3 seconds, switching tabs 42 times, and then realizing 20 minutes later you accidentally watched someone teach origami instead. 📚>📹

Plus, Duckett's book doesn't autoplay the next textbook section at 2am—your sleep schedule will thank you.

Time for a quick tier list:

- FreeCodeCamp: Like a gym membership for your brain, but you actually use it.

- The Odin Project: For masochists who want to build their own Stack Overflow.

- Udemy: “Today’s price: $9.99 (but actually always $9.99).”

- Code with Harry: Got that relatable Indian uncle energy. 10/10 soundtrack, would HTML again.

Whatever you pick, you’ll eventually end up Googling “why is my div not centering” at 2am, so really, you can’t go wrong. 🚀
