    The open curriculum for learning web development

  • It takes patience. So do baby steps. Calming yourself down helps. It let us think clearer. Once we have our brain and heart at ease, let’s start learning from helpful tutorials. There are introductory videos from VS Code itself. It’s not an easy task for everyone as each person has their own learning capacity. So, just go through the tutorials one by one or ask for help from people you know or in forums like from freeCodeCamp and The Odin Project (TOP). TOP is a free high-quality learning platform like FCC. Other amazing communities are willing to help you. Believe me, or should I say, trust the process. The time and effort to learn how to use an editor before starting any projects or just anything complicated as a beginner is super worth it. Get over with the “overwhelming” soon by slowly starting to get a hang of it. I believe everyone can do it one step at a time with consistency, persistence, and faith in ourselves, everyone, and everything else that matters.

  • Puts Debuggerer

    Ruby library for improved puts debugging, automatically displaying bonus useful information such as source line number and source code.

  • Another major thing to learn before learning HTML is how to use Github even just the basics.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Visual Studio Code

    Visual Studio Code

  • Learn how to code in a text editor like VS Code. Lots of useful features like changing all the same words at once and the code can be viewed better than on CodePen (I don’t know about other Integrated Development Environments - IDE).
