open-source-cs VS curated-programming-resources

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.

There is a good list of programming resources here and a list of programming tools here that might be useful

This. I couldn't find any other information about this course other than this github page. Is it good to begin with? Or would you recommend an another source like University of Helsinki's MOOC or Oracle's Official Java Tutorials? What I am looking for is a detailed course on Java and computers.

OTOH Googling around the past few days (and checking out the resources from the wiki link) has resulted in things like this where even the simplest possible tutorials end up with a dozen different kinds of files with multiples types of code and multiple types of configs and multiple whatevers. Like, I did that "tutorial" and I managed the feat of making the button turn the page green instead of the default red but I'm still just as totally lost as before on... everything. The tiny amount of Javascript that's in there is obviously perfectly understandable (don't need 10 years of JS experience to spot the 'red' bit in a file and turn it to 'green' and then after googling "javascript rgb color definition" to '#00ff00') on its own, as is the HTML, and the configs - really, everything individually makes perfect sense just from local context clues but I'm totally lost on the overall architecture and where I'd start extending the functionality.
