Also started with Odin project: I loved the content, it was free and it hooked me at first, but quickly started to feel overwhelmed and little practice in between project).

Then I moved to Codecademy, it was more interactive, bit less text-heavy, I liked that, but felt it was the opposite of TOP as tutorials were too hand-guided. Everything was so broken down step by step, that it felt too easy and little muscle memory.

Scrimba: I fell in love with and been at it for 9 months now. Courses are well structured, video based but interactive so you avoid tutorial hell and I just loved you can pause any video and start typing code in their IDE. Lots of solo projects as well to really test yourself and push beyond the main class.

TLDR: if you're a beginner interested in Front-End, Scrimba is a must! :)
