cs-topics VS open-source-cs

HtDP [0], CS50x [1], and whatever strikes your interest from teachyourselfcs [2], in that order.

Also highly recommend the book for nand2Tetris after CS50.

This is a really good fundamentals resource: https://teachyourselfcs.com/ They list books and videos.

Study computer science, either through college or via teachyourselfcs.com.

In the current market it's better to just put some resources together and learn from platforms like OSSU or Odin Project or FreeCodeCamp to really dip your toes in. The bootcamp era was a byproduct of interest rates at the time and shoveling in as many bodies as they could into the field. You can literally build a curicullum yourself for 6 months and see how you like it while working retail or whatever else. Or for the more technical side: teachyourselfcs.com gives you some ideas if you wanna start actual cs concepts.

https://teachyourselfcs.com/ also has a bunch of great resources for CS fundamentals.

Knowledge in a programming language is not complete without a full CS education. I recently found out this site: https://teachyourselfcs.com/

what's your opinion on teachyourselfcs.com for the fundamentals?

If you are going the broad CS route, do you want a degree, or do you just want the knowledge? If you want a degree, maybe start at a JC, then transfer to a UC or CSU (locally...Sac State). If you just want the knowledge, there are a number of websites out there like OSSU or Teach Yourself CS or this one on Github.

Here are pretty much all the classes you would need to take to get a computer science degree.

I'm self-studying, and stuck between taking online calculus courses or use UK textbooks to learn further maths. I'm learning maths for a career in CS, following advice online(loose guidelines from a github). Most sources say to learn calculus for CS, however I've seen that A-Level maths is calculus and further maths is less calculus? I'm just confused, there are resources for calculus online so I could do either. My other line of thinking is that if UK has maths/further maths then that must be enough for Universities here... If anyone can give any advice or just point me in the right direction that would be great!

Also check this repository out. It has some useful resources that will give you an edge over others. https://github.com/ForrestKnight/open-source-cs Don't use it right now. Start it when you have learnt a bit of HTML, CSS, Javascript. When you become familiar with these and have built some projects then you will need to up your game. At that point you will be needing this repository.

You're in luck!! https://github.com/ForrestKnight/open-source-cs

https://github.com/ForrestKnight/open-source-cs is getting on a bit, but a lot of great info.

Although, I am a current comp-sci student, I'm self-learning how to program and self-preparing myself to be job ready. Although, it has definitely been proven possible to achieve this without a computer science education, if anyone who wants to join the group is interested in that, following this free program🎓 while learning to code, would be pretty much the same curriculum that I'm taking at university.
