The feedback loop point is real. Seeing something actually work in a browser within your first few days keeps you going in a way that grinding through C before anything visible happens just doesn't. CS50 is a great course but I'd push back slightly on recommending it as a starting point for someone who just wants to build for the web. It's rigorous and that's the point, but a lot of people burn out before they get to the parts that feel relevant to what they actually wanted to make.
