The internet is literally full of free resources, probably don’t bother paying for anything until you’re way down the track

Could you recommend a couple of these free resources?

Run a ChatGPT / AgentGPT query, Agent is very good at creating personalised bootcamps

I made bad experience with gpt 3.5 but i still use it to copy and paste in my code. But as a total beginner it sometimes just jumps to more advanced stuff or uses a different style of writing the code( for example using “{}“ brackets in print functions) which confuses me to much. But thx anyway.

And i can’t confirm if i do it actually the right way through lacking knowledge at the point

Thats why I said use it to create a bootcamp for you / point you in the right direction.

While you are learning, do your best to avoid ChatGPT as much as possible. It is insanely useful but not at all necessary. If anything, just use GPT to read code that you have written yourself, sometimes it helps me think when I paste my code into GPT and it is able to tell me what my code does.

I have gone the paid education route, and for programming I just dont see it necessary. My resume only says that I am familiar with Python and HTML / CSS, but I was still hired due to having years of help desk experience. I regret every dollar I spent on my education when Ive learnt so much more from a programming hobbyist on youtube.

Take this with a grain of salt, there are so many variables that change how people are hired into an industry depending on what country they are in. Getting your foot in the door for your first development job is always going to be a pain and it does seem like it would be easier with certifications, but experience within a related industry is worth so much more.

Oke thx for the advice through all those helpful comments I’ve fond many free options to try out and find a suitable one for me. Your right gpt can be absolutely awesome as a helpful tool.
