Oddbean new post about login | logout What is your opinion about the coursera free online coding courses for beginners? Has anyone here tried any course like that? Is it worth trying? #asknostr #nostr #coding
Theyre fine. It would be helpful to know what kind of coding you are trying to learn - it would help in giving you better recommendations.
I know nothing about coding but I’d like to learn about web development and how to build websites. I’m a beginner with no background in this kind of sector. So basically I’m looking for courses to beginners,real beginners like me. 😆. How do I start? I can show you what I’ve found on my research so you can tell me if they courses are worth or not.
Sure. I’d recommend https://freecodecamp.org And https://theodinproject.com off the rip, but I’d love you to share what you’ve found so I can add them to my list.
I have not, but prefer my already purchased Udemy course in conjunction with ChatFuckingGPT!
it depends on what course and instructor(s), but overall I think it’s a good experience if you’re into programming. You don’t necessarily have to finish the course, so it’s a low-risk time investment.
If you know the lang you wanna learn , just go to their website .. there are always ton of free beginner tutorials .. and they are obviously best in class .. Once you are done with beginner stuff ..check out awesome (language) repos on GitHub for free resource .. Typically , when you want to learn a programming language , you have a good reason .. eg a project , or a tool you wanna build .. learning to program without a clear objective is almost like sailing alone in the Pacific :-) .. find purpose ..means will follow
