Hi guys, I'm not really a first time programmer. I already learnt HTML and CSS. So, I'm trying to proceed in my learning but I found out there are so many branches of programming services like, software development, mobile game development, data management, artificial intelligence, deep learning, web design and development and so on. So, I'm kinda confused on which one to go for. Pls if you don't mind, can you take a brief moment out of your time and explain what they meant and the languages I need to learn for each case. Pls, help a confused aoul

U learnt HTML and CSS?

U can start web designing already

You're not even a programmer at all. You are just a designer, static web page designer until you add JavaScript to it that you become a UI /UX designer (frontend).

@bold just pick one and focus on it. Don't be distracted by which one pays high, your primary focus is to solve the problems in any of the fields you pick.

One step at a time, welcome onboard. but wait o which area of programming are you planning to delve into

I think starting your programming career with HTML and CSS is a wrong move. Learn a fully fleshed programming language and understand the concept of OOP before going into web-design

HTML, CSS and front end Javascript is the way to go with web development. This is the reason why HTML, CSS and front end Javascript are the first you are required to learn in websites like freecodecamp and w3schools. These modules were set up by professionals with years of experience.

Don't let anyone tell you you're not a programmer/developer , if you know HTML and CSS you are already a programmer/developer.

There is a reason why front end development is a thing. But I have to warn you, programming get level.

Web development requires 4 technologies
1. HTML for content
2. CSS for layout and styling
3. JavaScript for interaction with user
4. Php/Java/python(django) for server side programming

I feel you should learn a multipurpose programming language (python, Java) before you start web design proper. If you can understand the concept of programming logic and know how to apply it in real life situations. Because web design is way more broader than what you see in your regular browser. If you are well grounded in computer programming as a whole learning JavaScript and Php will be a work over for you. Infact you may not need to learn php because python and Java have libraries that can carry out server side efficiently. I learnt JavaScript under a week because I already know. You may need to build sites that scrap data from another site or build a messaging app that requires some AI to distribute meaningful content to it's users or a trading platform where you need some knowledge of data structures. Learn programming first then move on with web design

You're right. W3schools is where I visit if I want to understand something under the shortest time possible but do you think it's useful for a beginner?
