I'll ask you to learn HTML which is like the basics. It'll give you an idea of what programming looks like, then you can go into python and javascript... considering the way tech is moving with AI and ML booming in the past few years programming might not be very much needed in the future as it's needed today because machines will be able to learn on their own and not requiring programs to tell them what they are to do.
But IoT will still need to be programmed I believe and that's where JS and Python come into play.
Most people prefer Python over JS because it's beginner-friendly and cross-platform. JS is a little difficult for most beginners but to be a power programmer you would need to learn the two.
Here are a few links to the best tutorials on youtube I've seen so far.

For HTML. https://go.rancah.com/GUftKu
For Python. https://go.rancah.com/knidy0N
For JS. https://go.rancah.com/6n0ep0

JavaScript

JavaScript is a scripting language commonly implemented as part of a web browser in order to create enhanced user interfaces and dynamic websites.

JavaScript is a prototype-based scripting language that is dynamic, weakly typed and has first-class functions. It uses syntax influenced by the language C. JavaScript copies many names and naming conventions from Java. JavaScript is NOT the-same thing as JAVA

Where can i learn JavaScript?

http://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp

http://www.tutorialspoint.com/javascript/index.htm

http://www.tizag.com/javascriptT/

Ebooks

www.tutorialspoint.com/javascript/javascript_tutorial.pdf

YouTube

http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE79FE1267A2553E2


JavaScript has grown rapidly in popularity because of Node.js.

Node.js is a cross platform runtime environment that runs on the V8 engine and allows JavaScript to be executed outside the browser.

Node.js utilizes asynchronous programming with the advantage of speed of code execution.

JavaScript can now run in the browser, and on the server side. So you just learn the language once and easily learn and build other applications.

If you would like to do frontend web I would advice you look at Vue Js and React Js after learning the basics.

If you would like to focus on the backend, you should learn Express Js, and one of the other backend frameworks e.g Nest Js or Adonis Js.

If you would like to work on mobile devices the React Native is your guys.

Having said all these, please note that you must learn the basics well before jumping into frameworks.

The MDN docs are very detailed is you are a patient person

I would like to advise you to start learning Python programming. After all, python is one of the five most demanded languages. In addition, one of its main advantages is the simplicity of the syntax. The syntax is exactly what made me fall in love with Python, everything unnecessary was removed from the syntax, the code is clean and understandable without unnecessary parentheses and expressions. So, I want to offer Learn Python Video Course , thanks to which you can learn how to create animations, several animations, a clock program, sending an email, running from the command line, pip, py to exe, calculator program, text editor program, game tic-tac-toe, snake game.

Good evening chiefs in the house,
Please how true is this news
This is far cry from reality. Many app already exist to do this but as you know it would still not match the frontend developer requirements. The field is still too wide.

Hi there!

There are a number of programming languages available in the market.

JavaScript.
Python
Java.
C++
GoLang.
C#
SQL.
Dart.

I would suggest you JavaScript and Python

Let me give you a synopsis of JavaScript it is a scripting or programming language that allows you to implement complex features on web pages — every time a web page does more than just sit there and display static information for you to look at — displaying timely content updates, interactive maps, animated 2D/3D graphics, scrolling video jukeboxes, etc. — you can bet that JavaScript is probably involved. It is the third layer of the layer cake of standard web technologies, two of which (HTML and CSS).

Python is an interpreted high-level general-purpose programming language. Python's design philosophy emphasizes code readability with its notable use of significant indentation. Its language constructs, as well as its object-oriented approach, aim to help programmers write clear, logical code for small and large-scale projects


Thanks,
I have recently started to create Interactive Maps. I often encounter different pragramming languages. It has to interact with the user and with the data on the web page on which it is located. For this case, SVG is the way to go. Why? Because it's easy to work with someone familiar with HTML. SVG - a vector format, based on XML. That is, SVG-picture has its own DOM, to the various elements can apply CSS-rules and control the good old JavaScript. I also make various corrections with showmymap.
