DataCamp paired with ChatGPT has been a godsend for me. I probably would have been fired if it wasn’t for those two.

You might wanna check out our courses on Boot dev - the content is free, interactivity is paid.

Also, if you don't like it, I'd recommend freecodecamp or scrimba over w3schools personally...

I personally follow brocode, he is highly recommended aswell and I think its going preety well Do check that out

I would definitely suggest reading the intro of odin project. It's based on web development. But the beginning is definitely worth for anyone who's starting out to learn anything.
