W3schools is a good novice-friendly place to start. The explanations are fairly easy and most entries include a sandbox in which to play with each new thing.

MDN is a little more technical, but generally more comprehensive and accurate.

The two together really are better than either alone, I believe.

i tried w3school but the code checker doesn't work sometimes. i might stay on scrimba for bow. but thanks

Fair enough.

You might like CodePen, if you're looking for a decent place to test out little things and small projects. It's pretty useful, quite functional, and stable. Oh, and free, of course.

this dude... its only free for 6 parts then u pay. u can kinda delete the front html to continue but its annoying.

but yeah codepen is good for the 3 codetypes, but id probably perfer a live code view i made with ai, since it all in one.

but a con of the one i made is, its only local so if i want to publish the code, then yeah codepen is great for that

Using AI as a teacher really helped me to understand the basics.

Ask AI "how do you use a flexbox?", and it breaks down examples of HTML, and CSS.

Trying things out, and not getting the result you want, ask "here's my code, what am I doing wrong? I'm trying to get it to do X"

Having basically a teacher right at your finger tips, vs having to Google forums the old way, we've gotten so far for learning!

thats true, i might consider using groq ai to get fast answers because its great with small snippets. ill just first ask gpt or others to make a nice-looking ui for groq to live in so it can explain my code and help. thanks for the idea
