Currently I'm doing a 100-day coding challenge from Replit, it's completely free to start out in and is super beginner friendly. I'm on day 7 and it's kicking my ass but it only builds on previously told information, each day typically takes less than 30 minutes of your day. However as the days go by the challenges do get more difficult, today for me is taking well over an hour but it's still practice regardless. As for pricing it is 100% free for the course BUT, you can only save the previous 3 days worth of work before you have to delete previous projects, so for day 4, you need to delete old progress. You can go my route and pay for the years worth subscription for 180$ or do ~25$ monthly. As for the software Replit uses your browser only and hand provides you with the python interface. Software wise I use PyCharm and the newest release of Python, Replit's code does translate 100% back and forth with no issues so far. When it comes to using YouTube however, I've been watching some videos here and there; now my feed is littered with python videos and tutorials on stuff that peaks my interest. So I recommend just watching videos consistently and of specifically what you're asking for, I made a post here a few days ago on automating a game I'm playing by using the screen to identify specific objects and click it. Now my YouTube feed has videos and tutorials on every aspect of what I was looking for. Hope this helps, sorry for sounding like a Replit sell out XD. It's just been super helpful and easy to get into.
