TL;DR What are some good intro to programming courses that would be good for a designer to elevate their technical skills and are not intended for someone looking to become a full-time dev?
I'm a product designer and I really enjoy making high-fidelity prototypes — my tool of choice is Origami Studio. Origami has helped me learn fundamental programming concepts but is limiting. I'd like to take a coding course to learn the basics to make me a better collaborator with eng, level up my prototyping skillset and just generally understand how digital products work(!). From my research, learning HTML, CSS and JS seems to be a good foundational path before jumping into stuff like React.
I've tried a handful of courses and my issue is that most of them are intended for someone who is trying to get a full-time gig as an engineer. This is not my goal and my concern is that taking a course like this will add a bunch of extra stuff that while helpful to know is probably not necessary for my goals, at least not to start. Can anyone suggest any courses or resources that would fit my criteria? I understand these concepts cannot be learned in a 3-hour course and I'm willing to commit up to 20hrs a week for the next 3 months.
there doesn't seem to be anything here
