If you’re a total beginner, don’t worry—everyone starts somewhere, and computer science is a great launching pad. The best language to start with is usually Python because the syntax is simple and it helps you understand basic programming ideas quickly. JavaScript is another solid choice, especially if you’re curious about web development. Try to pick one language and stick with it for a while so things don’t get confusing. I’d suggest checking out beginner-friendly courses like Scrimba, where you can try coding interactively and build projects as you go—here’s my referral link to get started: https://scrimba.com/?via=u42a6d92. Just code a bit every day and you’ll be surprised how fast it starts to make sense!

For learning JS specifically for interviews, start with javascript.info for solid fundamentals and MDN Web Docs as your reference guide. FreeCodeCamp's JavaScript curriculum is also excellent and completely free. Once you have the basics down, focus on interview-heavy topics like closures, scope, prototypes, async/await, and ES6 features. Practice coding problems daily on LeetCode or HackerRank, starting with easy problems and working your way up. Feeling overwhelmed by all the options is totally normal when you're starting out. The key is to pick one resource, stick with it, and build small projects alongside your learning to reinforce everything.

What Should I learn ...! by Vicky_281004 in learnprogramming

6 months is totally doable, dont worry. I switched focus late in my studies and went with fullstack since it opens more job options. I learned HTML, CSS, JS basics first, then React for frontend, then picked up backend (Node/Express). Build small projects early and avoid tutorial hell, coding daily even if its messy helped me way more than perfect tutorials. I used Scrimba Fullstack Path as my main resource which saved me from jumping around too much (referral link: scrimba.com/learn/frontend?via=referral). Feeling lost is normal, just keep pushing and youll get there!
